I really like my Fireface 800. I have the RME Octamic D and a ADA8000 connected to the 2 ADAT optical ports. Running it on a Macbook Pro via FW800 to Logic Pro. Runs great and able to record 26 channels @ 48khz/24-bit. The customer service has been great in their response over the phone, e-mails, or on the forum. If you live in the US, they also have a dedicated US division that provides local support. The only complaint I have about the Fiireface 800 is that the pre's are on the front and the line 1-8 ins are on the back. I would have like all the connections either in the front or in the back, not a mix of the two - just makes cable routing a pain if you are using 8-channel snakes. But I guess RME made up for this by allowing you to use the pre's and the line in's simultaneously.
