At 24bit, 96khz no USB1 card is equal-in/out because that's only
bandwidth for stereo in one direction. I supose, you intend to run the
card on Windows as well, right? Because on Linux the equal in/out
problem doesn't exists, at least it could be worked around with Jack. 

Then the only other 4 in/out card I can think of is the Audiotrak
Maya44 which *should* work on Linux, but Luke Yelavich reported
problems with it on the alsa lists. I don't know if those were general
problems or just some on his machine. Personally I bought the Terratec
Aureon USB, which is rather cheap but works very well. The other
Terratac USB card is rather expensive but also worked very well. 

Ciao
