.mp3 Playback on an A1200

[Dr_Nineman]

I am considering options for upgrading my stock Amiga 1200 such that it can play .mp3 files.  My processor upgrade path is yet to be determined.  I am either planning on:

1)  Blizzard 060/50Mhz
2)  Blizzard 060/PPC (heat issues, I know)
3)  ACK Software Controls PPC (currently Vaporware)

My questions are as follows:

1)  Can I use any of the above processors to emulate .mp3 playback without the use of a third-party sound card?

2)  If not, which sound card is best for a A1200 Desktop (i.e., Delfina Flipper, etc.)?

Thanks for your help here!

I think I'll try the 060 option before throwing money into a Delfina.  If the sound quality is decent then I am happy.  I'm not much of an audiophile other than my habit of digitizing everything.

What software would you recommend for a Blizzard 060/50Mhz A1200?  You guys are saving me a lot of time (and money).  Thanks again.
