Quick help please (been out of the loop, another what to get, sorry)

Well, about 6 months ago or so, my parents old dogs ate my SA6's. I was pretty upset, so I checked the Sleek site and noticed the SA6R's and the SA7's. A quick look at SoundEarphones showed the SA6R's. So I spent some money I shouldn't have and bought them. It's been so long since I've truly enjoyed my music. I'm halfway there now.

The other part of the story, about a year ago, my Cowon D2 got two cracks in the screen, so I gave it to my sister (it was out of warranty) and bought a cheap Sony 16GB (E series). This Sony gives me a lot of issues and the EQ sucks on it. So, I want to know what 16GB (or 8GB with expandable memory up to 16GB) DAP would be best suited to go with my new Sleek's. It has to have a good EQ on it. I plan on giving my sister the Sony, so I can have the 8GB microSD back from the Cowon.

I am only looking to spend NO MORE THAN $100USD. The cheaper the better, as I really shouldn't be spending the money at all, but I really want to enjoy my music again. I appreciate any and all help and I do apologize for another what to get thread. I just ordered my Sleek's tonight so they won't ship until tomorrow. So I have all of today to find and get a new DAP that can ship tomorrow as well.

Awesome thanks, don't think I'm going to go with the Clip+, I bought a Clip a while back and took back to the store inside of a week, I didn't like the sound quality, but the Fuze I tried, I loved. I just didn't see a microSD on it before, but it does have one. Going with the 8GB Fuze then. Thanks a lot.

A refurb 8GB from Amazon, less than $50USD, perfect. Can't wait to truly enjoy my music again.

I've heard that before, but maybe I just got a bad Clip. The Fuze sounded fuller and better, I'm still not the best at describing sound, but it sounded like what it should have ha ha. The Clip I bought just sounded cheap, tinny and far away no matter how I adjusted the sound. Maybe next week I'll pick a Clip+ up too and see if it sounds better.
 

Well, I also ordered the Clip+, I'm going to try both out and which ever I like least I'm giving to a friend who's iPod is complete crap and falling apart. I got the Fuze yesterday and I'm loving it right now. Though I'm not adjusting the EQ settings until my SA6R's, so I can't really comment on SQ right now. It is better than the Sony I was using though.
