Firewire Card Help

[cobhc]

Ok, so I'm going to shortly be purchasing an M-Audio Profire 2626, and I need a PCI/PCI-E firewire card to go with it, anyone got any recommendations of which cards will work fine with the Profire?

Anything with a TI chipset - this will work:

Don't go with ANY one with a TI chipset. Stick with the few that M-Audio & Digidesign recommend. It's not worth the guessing.

Though I am tempted by the LaCie or Belkin ones that are much easier to find but untested by AVID.

SIIG make nice 1394 cards. All of them have TI chipsets I believe.

I would go with one that someone has actually used that has worked. I'm going through the same shit! I settled on this:

,when Presonus never contacted me back, after 2 fucking weeks! I searched all the Presonus and Maudio forums, and this one seems to work. We'll see, after it comes in the mail. I may have to buy another one for Avid, since Presonus never answered me on this Avid approved FW card http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/461899-REG/PYRO_AV_PVC_316_PYRO1394_PCI_Express_2_Port.html.
I now fucking hate Presonus--gonna get an Echo audiofire.
