For a cheaper solution I'd recommend to get a home

RIAA amp,
I could either plug in to the RCA line level output of my system
while playing a phonograph, or I could plug the turntable into my
RIAA amp (by Rolls).
plug it into some good device with a decent A/D
converter and
SPDIF out (a DAT player, for example), and plug that SPDIF into some
mid-range soundcard. DAT players and home amps can be bought second hand
pretty cheaply, and I think this would give a good price vs quality ratio.
Interesting. I hadn't thought of going that route. I wonder if I
could get both the used DAT player and a S/PDIF i/o card with a USB
interface for less than the price of just a descent USB connected
audio interface.
Thanks....
