Here is my rule of thumb and I'm a newbie so take what I say with a grain of salt......

Don't blow a lot of money on a great mic to connect to a crappy preamp with a crappy cable. With audio gear I've noticed that you get what you pay for, but there are a few suprises to that rule (example: Shure SM57 is an $80 industry standard mic..you'd have a hard time finding a studio that doesn't at least consider using one per session)

I'd start by getting a nice interface....the RME FireFace looks pretty nice and the word around here is that RME makes nice gear.
