I agree with the pre-amp suggestion....I just bought a used FOCUSRITE ISA ONE PROFFESSIONAL SINGLE CHANNEL MIC PRE AMPLIFIER. I read a lot of good stuff and reviews on this unit, I saw a couple of demo's and thought it sounded very sweet. I went to the Focusrite website and the story behind it is pretty amazing...I plan on doing acoustic guitar recordings and this should help. I have AKG C214 mics and a couple of Neumann TLM 102's. I like the sound of the AKG mics better and put one of the 102's up for sale on reverb.com. I'm hoping that the Focusrite pre-amp will help the sound of the AKG's.
Any comments are welcome.

I agree with other posters that you don't want to get your gear 'quality' level too imbalanced (I wouldn't upgrade mics with the preamp and adc gear you are using). I primarily record solo fingerstyle acoustic guitar in stereo. I like to use a pair of same model sdc mics in a spaced pair arrangement. When possible I use omni mics. Currently I use a pair of Gefell M296S omnis (or a pair of 3 Zigma cardioids) into a pair of Speck 5.0 MicPre, into a Mytek Stereo192 ADC, into a Motu interface. My weak link is my playback chain. I really like the results Anton got with his Gefell M300 mics and what Derik (Rick-Slo) gets with his Gefell M295 mics. Sdelsolray also uses Gefell but I haven't heard full arrangements of his work.
