However, the sound device he origionally suggested was RME's Fireface,

I'm having trouble finding a device with similar specs. Does anybody
have any suggestions on devices that work with linux (alsa or freebob)
that can handle the 192k sample rate, have at least 8 analog line
level inputs (not concerned about preamps) and are in the same price
range?
There are lots of nice units out there, but finding something that can
handle 192k kinda reduces the selection really quickly.
it will reduce your disk space even more rapidly, for no benefit that
has EVER been demonstrated in a double blind test. oh, it will also
increase the CPU load making super low latencies harder to achieve (and
perhaps impossible to achieve) until processor speeds increase 4 fold.
