As a matter of fact, yes...

And there may be others as well. I contacted Turtle Beach a few years back to
buy any of the add-on boards that they had, weather it was Quadzilla, Plus,
Home Studio, etc. They had none to offer. I think that they gave all of them

As a matter of fact, I plan on trying this soon. I just don't have any SPDIF
gear, but I know that it is possible. That daughterboard has a lot of extra
hardware though. I plan on looking into it to see just what all of those extra
parts do (when I get my hands on one).

I'll be experimenting with a few different Vortex cards soon. I'll let you
