REVIEWS

"The Weiss interface combines leading-edge technology that works day in day out along with the right combination of mundane creature features for real people to use and enjoy. The low levels of jitter achieved by the INT 202 helps remove one of the major bugaboos that often hinder digital audio from achieving its promise of state-of-the-art audio performance and operational convenience. There is nothing quirky about the 202. It’s easy to install, easy to use and very easy to like. Daniel Weiss clearly understands the differences between the needs of recording engineers and the expectations of consumer audio enthusiasts. His INT 202 delivers the next generation of sonic goods and does so with a package of features that are guaranteed to keep the listeners smiling."
