The difference in latency between the Presonus Firepod (8 channel) and  
the RME800 was huge.  The latency with the Firepod was in the order of  
350ms.  There were some other problems too (my video chipset and the  
Firepod's chipset didn't peacefully co-exist on the PCI bus -- this  
could have caused bandwidth/latency issues, too.)

I have not used an RME400 -- I would expect its latency to be similar  
to the RME800.  I noticed that someone is selling an RME800 on Ebay  
for under $1000 which is a pretty good deal.

I haven't tried any other interfaces however between the Firepod and  
the RME800, I get much better performance out of the RME800.
