If we talking about rare PC soundcards, for me the most rarest sound is:
- Innovation SSI-2001 (never see this board for sale, don't know who own this board, but now we have a replica available)
- Adlib Gold 1000 (only 3-4 vogons member has this board)
- IBM Music Feature (lot people has, me too)
- Omni Labs AudioMaster AMS-8000 (only one known vogon member)
less rarity (almost every soundcard collector has most this boards):
- Roland LAPC-I
- Pro Audio Spectrum 8bit and PAS+
- Creative Game Blaster
- Ensoniq SoundScape Elite
- Creative SB Pro1 (dual OPL2) (clone - Sound Commander FX)
- Covox Sound Master, Voice Master, Sound Master + (carlostex and Elianda own), Sound Master II
- MediaTrix AudioTrix Pro (3D-XG ?)
- AVM Apex (maybe?)
- Gravis Ultrasound Extreme
- Core Dynamics DYNASonix 3D/PRO (Gus pnp clone with additional features)
- TurtleBeach Multisound Classic
- Yamaha SW60XG
All other boards is more or less available for sale and not worth to mention here.
And if we adding midi dautherboards - there are some rare, like:
- Ensonuq SoundScape DB
- Terratec Wave XTable
- Yamaha DB60XG (original, not NEC XR385)
- Korg AI20 (Trust Korg Super Sound Module / Guillemot Korg Wave Upgrade)
- Korg clones (MediaVision Pro Wave / X Technology TopWave 32)
- Orchid Wavebooster /2,/4,/4fx (never see for sale)
- Creative WaveBlaster 1 CT1900
