Soundblaster Live will be fine.  I use the sb live and use a line out from
my hi fi amp into the sound card.  I'm using CD Spin Doctor which is part of
Adaptec Easy CD creator http://www.adaptec.com/products/overview/ecdc.html.
Its got some simple to use pop and crackle filtering and loudness balancing.
Check out the Creative site for sb live specs http://www.sblive.com/

Your final quality will be somewhat determined by how old and scrappy your
LP's are and the quality of your turntable.
