Let me preface this by saying I am not very technically literate. I've browsed the forums and have seen many topics of people connecting their Stereo line-in to their sound card line-out, but I want to do it the other way around.
I want to connect my stereo up to my sound card so I can transfer some audio cassette tapes to mp3 files. However, my stereo system only has a line-in auxillary jack, there are no line-outs. Is there any other way of doing this or do I just need a new stereo that has line out jacks?
If this has been covered before and I missed it, I apologize.
Thanks in advance.

I also want to do this. I thought of using my old Audigy for this, but I notice some noise.

Are the Audigy's A/D converters high enough quality for digitising cassettes or should I consider something better?
What brands/ types would that be?
