I think the Juli@ is also supported, and I've certainly heard extremely positive reviews of it from a quality standpoint. Personally I have an Echo Indigo IO, but that's a notebook card so probably not what you want. Look through the matrix on the wiki to see if X card is supported. Also, I would avoid creative. Their reputation for quality is not very good (or extremely poor, if you listen to some people, but if you do that then most things suck according to someone), and some/many/all of the audigy range resample everything to 48kHz *I've heard*. I was never entirely clear if it was 48kHz or a multiple of 48kHz. Obviously quite an important distinction here. I hope there was something useful in there somewhere!
