Egosys Sound Cards & Media Devices Drivers

Before starting ARTA, in Wine Configuration Dialog a) set default sound input and output devices and b) set frame of windows to have the Windows native look.

I've built myself a little reference mic using a panasonic WM 61 mic capsule.
Rather than building a seperate mic preamp, I'd like to get a sound card that has a built in preamp. I seem to recall that one of the Turtle Beach cards (Fiji?) had an on board preamp. Any other cards that you guys recommend?
No, this isn't for recoding or anything very high quality, so I'm not too worried that it won't be as good as a seperate preamp. I'm looking for something easy, and since I need a new sound card....might as well get it all done at once.
