Hi,
I'm trying to find out which of these interfaces has the best mic preamps (I mean the lower noise floor, the best SNR, the lowest EIN, the best frequency response):
- Alesis IO2
- Presonus Audiobox/Audiobox 22VSL
- Steinberg UR22
- Steinberg CI1
- Mackie Onyx Blackjack
- Focusrite Scarlett 2i2

Thank you very much,
Luis Pablo
 
My order of preference would be:
1) Not just the Onyx preamps, but the Cirrus Logic AD/DA converters would make the Blackjack a great choice. Specs for the unit are HERE.
2) PreSonus 22VSL can be found HERE.
3) Specs for the 2i2 are HERE. The free plug ins make this a good buy for the money.
4) UR22 specs are on page 17 of the USER MANUAL.
5) CI1 is HERE.
6) The io2 specs are HERE.
Others will argue, YMMV.
