This Alsa project hardware matrix tag might help ya: http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Special:Whatlinkshere/Matrix:Tag-USB :) There are, as always, a lot of off-branded hardware on shelves out there, though, so without ripping cases off stuff to ID chips, so if you can discount-bin shop some returnable tryouts you'll probably have good luck. CRRC and goodwill shops are also other candidates for this; esp. in the average second-hand shop: if they see some widget witha few plugs and no dials or other interface, it usually gets shoved in a bin of adaptors and power cables, among video game and other home entertainment piles (most usb audio devices I've seen are just dongles)... anything sound blaster era should have CD-quality sound... you might also find one that has MIDI as well as audio, which could be a worthwhile extra...
