I remember looking into this a couple of years ago. The PCI card I was
looking at was the M-Audio Delta 1010LT. It has 8x8 analog 24bit/96Khz IO
1x1 MIDI, and a digital in/out I believe. I heard the card worked perfectly
in Linux (at least on the ALSA chart). It's a beast, and it looks like you
can pick one up boxed (but used) for about $150 CDN.

24/96 or similar Envy24 cards and all those onboard devices I ever
heard, don't reach good consumer quality, they produce marked loss for
the sound quality.
Please, please, at least try to be a bit informed before writing.
Audio quality is determined by the AD and DA converters and their
clocks, not by any digital interface circuits such as the Envy24.
My Envy24 based Terratec (from the time that firm still produced
interesting stuff) is actually among the best I ever measured.
And it sounds *much* better than most 'consumer' cards I've ever
seen.
