The Audigy 2 Value series should work well. You do need a recent ALSA but the card is emu10k2 based so you get hardware mixing, DSP, wavetable synth. It's also 24 bit, 192 Khz capable. This is not supported yet in the Linux driver but should be soon, James Courtier-Dutton is working on it I think. Lee
