well,
if it should be on the cheap side,
and the need for usb because of a lacking pcmcia/expresscard is present,
there there are
logilink ua0099 available, which are offering 8ch output
for 23euros
i bought some here:

If it's just about having 16 channels DAC, using two C-media CM6206
soundcards should be enough but you might need direct input boxes if
the amplifiers are not just beside the computer, I tried this chipset
and it works good on a pcduino2 and Pd with 8 channels, no glitches,
it should works as well on a Raspberry Pi 3. So it's possible to
cluster the soundcard+pi on a network and have as much channels as you
need.

or get yourself an old rme multiface hdsp card, eight analog outputs
and eight adat… you will need an old laptop with pcmcia or a new one
with express card (or a macbook with thunderbolt and an adatper)
rme cards are good quality and quite cheaply secondhand (200 $)

The Motu is $1000. The Presonus is $500. What about getting 8x
2-channel USB soundcards? The Griffin iMic is a 2x2 and is $40. So
8x would be $320.
If you look around, you can find 2ch USB audio adapters for
$20/each, $10/each, even $2/each. For that kind of money you could
purchase a few and evaluate them in terms of quality, or maybe read
up on what chip they use and read reviews.
I'm pretty sure Pd supports multiple audio adapters, but have not
tested this.
Please post your results, as I would like to get into ambisonics as
well and be able to drive 8x or more speakers. But I don't want to
spend $1000!
