I know I'm not alone when I say it's difficult to evaluate the differences between the competing CMI8788 cards, so in your own words what would you say are the advantages to buying a Sondigo Inferno versus one of the competitors' products?
For me, this forum is a BIG bonus as it proves you guys are willing to be there to answer questions on behalf of your customers, with prompt responses written in good English. I also like the fact that you're in BC instead of halfway around the world from a support standpoint.
Enough from me though, let's hear what else you guys offer that the competition doesn't! :)

From what I can tell, the Inferno uses the same high-quality DACs that the X-Meridian does, while being quite a bit cheaper.

Hi Karson,
There are obviously a lot of similarities between the 8788-based cards, and a lot of the feature set is the same. I haven't actually gotten a chance to use the competing cards that you mention, so I can't tell you the differences from a hands-on perspective. A few things that I can see from taking a quick look at the specs:
-Inferno comes with PowerDVD5, which includes a 5.1 Dolby Digital decoder. This means you are going to get the full 5.1 experience from your DVDs.
-One year warranty (I'm not sure what the others offer)
-The Inferno (like the Bluegears) is quite a bit cheaper than the Auzentech.
