For under $2K of A/D and D/A I'd recommend the Mytek stereo boxes.

Well the Rumor is what ... $500? It has a huge software investment and it has conversion by necessity.

The Mytek is 2 channels out of an 8 channel box that has been used for records with no budgetary limitations.

So what would you think?

My favorite my pre for overheads are the Helios Olympic style. Very open on cymbals. Great tone.
