$300-ish suggestions replacing for a HRT Linestreamer+ ADC?

[Little Danny]

Hi all - it seems my five-year-old HRT Linestreamer+ ADC has given up the ghost.

Major bummer. I've tried a number of ADCs over the years for the purposes of recording vinyl, mostly 45s and some '50s and '60s jazz LPs. In my experience nothing quite captured the sound as smoothly as the Linestreamer+ did.

Given that new/used Linestreamers are tough to find, I'm hoping for some suggestions for similar quality ADCs for PC laptops. Also, I'm totally fine with 24-bit/96 kHz (as the Linestreamer+ was) if it means some savings compared to a 24/192 model.

Thanks so much!

Did you mean to post in the Turntables forum?

I did! But only because I'd seen some other analog-to-digital discussion in the Turntable forum. I'll repost it in general audio if this thread sinks.
