I'm looking to buy a pair of alessandro ms1s here in japan which is fairly priced. Anyhow, I've previously owned a pair of sr125s and I was impressed with how it sounded when paired with a cmoy amp connected to a lineout... right now I'm stuck with a notebook with onboard sound with no lineout so, I was thinking of getting one of those portable dac/amps that connect via USB and I was wondering if Fireye IIs fared well when coupled with a pair of Grados/Alessandros. I'm looking in the $100-150 range and it seems that Xonar U1 or Fireye II are good candidates but unfortunately I haven't found any threads linking either components to Grados... so, could anyone give me some opinions on this including possible alternatives... I need this to work for my notebook.

I've had this card for quite a while now, and I have to say its a really nice card - a huge step-up to my on-board motherboard's audio. At first I do have to admit, it didn't feel like the D1... -
Long story short: These earbuds, shouldn't ever be bought, when they come free in your iPod package, its fine to look at them, and try them on. If you know someone wanting to buy these,...
