Looking for, with the MY8-TD ADAT version 8-port Mini-YGDAI Expansion Card

what I've gathered

not an interface, just "breakout box" converter, in my case I'll need an interface with ADAT inputs, e.g. RME Digiface USB

zero digital outputs on its own

Usually the included Mini-YGDAI Expansion Card is AES/EBU version (MY8-AE)

Tascam TDIF-1 (MY8-TD) version is rarely seen

Analog ports, balanced XLR, inputs only, switchable mic/line level, gain adjustment

has Word Clock input and output for syncing with external equipment, master or slave (needed with ADAT signal clocking?)

24-bit linear analog-to-digital converters and 128-times oversampling, dynamic range of 110 dB

"broadcast-quality" preamps with independent 48V phantom power, derived from Yamaha's PM5D consoles

"electronically-balanced" analog insert points on two 1/4" TRS phone jacks for patching in external processors

remote control protocol

Anyone can vouch for SQ?

Quality alternatives suggestions welcome, under $200

better quality than Behringer Ultragain ADA 8200, or those maybe going for say $80 I'll bite.
