I have a msi z77 e53 mini itx mobo, the problem is that my microphone ( mod mic 4.0) is too quiet at base levels and as I boost the microphone it makes the hissing, which is already present worst. The output audio is not optimal for my denon AH-d1100. I am looking for an external USB soundcard with good input microphone audio and good output audio with as little hissing as possible. My price range is below $100 I am situated in canada. I don't need anything that is audiophile grade just something better than my mobo audio I cant afford anything over $100 as iI am a poor student. I need a USB sound card because i don't have any pci slots. I am here because i dont know where or how to start.
Thank you,
