I've just been through the same process as you, going from two 1010 PCI to a Presonus Firestudio. I bought a Digimax FS for another 8 ins as well. How do you find the preamps on the Firestudio? I'd say that a SM57 sounds better than my old system of a Mackie 24-8-2 into my 1010s. There is not a huge amount in it though, and I'd think it is slightly noisier.

They've been great to me for years. I have no complains about them, per say, but their features are what you would expect in 2001, not 2008. That's all. I recommend the Delta 1010 to anyone that gets their needs met by them, but for about the same amount of money their are great options out there.
