[UK-CONTEST] External Sound Card advice

[Will M0GYZ]

I've only ever had 1 sound card because I know it can do everything you want

A Creative X-fi USB Sound Card

http://uk.store.creative.com/products/product.aspx?catid=1&pid=17751 ( 
I'd look for a better price)

Its always done everything I want it to and you can mute the mic

Thanks
