Here's another option: the Avid/Digidesign MBox 2 Pro goes for about $600, but includes ProTools LE, so it busts your budget but you get something extra. I've been nicely surprised with the sound quality. On the digital side it supports up to 24-bit/96 kHz. Inputs are: 2 mic, 2 DI, 2 line, 2 phono (haven't tried those). Outs are: 4 line, 2 monitor, 2 headphone. Also has S/PDIF and wordclock in & out, and 2 firewire ports. Line and monitor outs support either balanced or unbalanced via 1/4" phone plugs (TRS or TS). The DAC sounds about on par to the DACs built into the HHB CDR830 or Marantz SA-8260.
Anyone in NYC who has a Duet and wants to compare it to the MBox, lemme know - it might be interesting.
