You may want to try M-Audio's MicroTrack 24/96. It is inexpensive, portable and easy to use. If you invest in a good microphone like a Sennheiser and windscreen, you'll obtain the quality you are looking for.

The PMD671 is a bit bigger and more expensive than the PMD660. While both are great, I find the PMD671 has even less background noise than the 660.
