I don't suppose that anyone looking out for a $60 card is going to be needing too many XLR sockets.

No, but 1/4" jacks can be had on cards for around $75.

He can get a 2496 for that price.

Or an emu 404 pci, or a Juli@. Maybe even an emu 1212.

YES!!! Absolutely the most important link in the digital recording chain.
Consider that everything that you record passes through this piece of hardware twice. Once on the way in, and again on the way out. This is one area where you definitely do not want to cut corners! 'Nuff said...!

Sound cards, are they really that important?
