When I'm on the road I often take a small netbook (laptop) with me, and the onboard audio is horrible. I was thinking of the fiio e10 as a possible option, and I'm wondering if there's anything better for around $100... or less. I read of quite a few issues concerning the e10 which is why I didn't grab one already. I have a decent home set up and would like to get decent sound when I'm limited to using my netbook on the road. I'll eventually be upgrading my portable phones, but I need to upgrade my source first.

I bought these headphones just for the fun of it, to see how they sound with all that apparently amazing bass. Well, for $50, they're ok sounding for extra bass headphones. They do have a...
