Forvo

Forvo: the largest word pronunciation dictionary in the world, now with translations.

All cards MUST have audio. If you're learning Chinese to read you can get away without it, but if you're only goal is to speak, a card without audio is POINTLESS. For single words it's usually not hard to find audio (I personally love Forvo). Also there are Anki addons that will auto generate AI voice for you if you can't find native audio (e.g. HyperTTS and Chinese Support Redux) so use that if you must.
