Focusrite Scarlett

I have been eye balling the Focusrite Scarlett series for a while now; thinking about getting the 8i6 or 18i6.  I have been using a M-Audio Firewire Solo for a long time now and I am thinking about making the change to USB.  Seems like firewire is kind of on its way out.
 
Anybody have anything good or bad to say about the Scarlett's?

     I've had the Scarlett plugs for a while. I got them because I was so impressed with their Liquid mix. To be honest I think they are no higher quality than the Sonnitus plugs. The compressor works and seems transparent to me.  I hate the EQ and reverb. Really cool looking interface though.
     
    EDit: Oh interface, not sure about that.

    Thanks for the response Ohgrant.  Yes, I am looking at the hardware (sound card) interfaces.

    I tried the scarlett 2i2 and ended up sending it back ... I sounded ok but the headphone monitor sound was very weak ... no volume .... still looking for a replacement ..
