If you have the Delta66, I should chime in with the classic bit of wisdom:
avoid integrated mic pres.  As you do more recording, you might want a
different sound one day.  If your pres are integrated, you'll be stuck with
buying a new interface.

If you just need two channel, let me suggest the Maudio Audio Buddy.
It's a preamp/direct box that's designed to be very transparent and
very flexible.  I netted one off Ebay a while back for like $70, so
it'll probably save ya a few bucks too!
