We've had a SOHO card for a while, but never installed it until today.
Sadly, it performed just like the hardware listing said:

It doesn't work.  At least, not in a small, square room with wall-mounted
speakers.  We played a video on the computer, then watched Rat's talk levels
match William Shatner's voice.

you've just bought one and still need to put it together.  Either way, I'd
like to know: does your way of doing it actually cancel any echo?

PS: So far, we've been most pleased with an Accumic PC.  We've also had
mixed results from chaining together several of Phoenix Audio's Duet
Executive microphones, but the seem to work in our current arrangement.
