Default I'm hard up, flash mp3 player at very low cost for me ;)

My Rio Karma' hard drive broke down. It's perfect in everything else, but I'm not interested in refurbing it and I'll sell it as "broken", to take part of the money back. After this only one, sad experience with hd based players, I want a flash DAP. However I'm not interested on the top players out there: I'm not a true audiophile and I'm interested in something that can just drive my Sennheiser CX300 well (for exemple, with them I couldn't notice any difference between my Rio Karma and my old Creative MuVo V200).
I'd like at least a 4gb flash player, eventually 8gb if the price doesn't get too high. I know one thing: right now I've no money to buy such IEMs like Shure E4Cs, so anything good for my CX300 will be enough for a couple of years.
Can you suggest me some daps?

Thanks, but it's still too much for me.

I don't mind buying on ebay, so it'd be ok also something of the previous generation.

I realize you stated you wanted a player with 4GB of capacity ... but if you reduce your preference to 2GB, you will have many options within your price range -- Apple factory refurbished iPod Nano and Creative Zen V, to name just two examples. With 4GB, you would have to keep replacing songs in the player, anyway -- with 2GB, you would just have to do that more often. Or perhaps you can find two 2GB players on ebay ...

Buona fortuna!
