Both are good interface and both do what you want. The Saffire has a higher possible sample rate (192 vs 96), but really 96 is high enough. FWIW, I preferred the FireBox and yes, I have had both on my desktop at the same time. Don't be swayed by the Focusrite software alone - it's not so amazing that you'll never use another compressor/EQ/reverb/amp sim ever again.
