I would only look for devices that are mentioned here:

I'm not sure if you can expect too much from USB audio devices. USB 1.x is
too slow and I often heard that USB causes timing problems. Personaly, I'm
considering to buy a Echo Layla 24 (as I already posted) - you can use it
with a PCI or PCMCIA card, has a high audio quality, low latency and you've
got a lot of in- and ouputs (balanced analog, S/PDIF, ADAT, Wordclock, MIDI).

Regards,
Christian
