  Quote: Thanks.   However I decided not to buy this yet, and go for a sansa clip+, theoritically  that would be (even if small) upgrade from my current sony nwz-e436, and in storage size, definiately an upgrade.   Maybe later, but I'm hoping S:flo3 will be around in a year or...

I'm among the lucky ones who could still get the UE TF10 at the price $95.   Now I'm thinking on upgrading my portable gear, which is a Sony NWZ-E436 (it has lower SQ than the A8**, or X-* according to other threads)   I've read through lots of comparisons, and like 60 pages of this...

Well, it seems I can sell my STX ( :'( ) , and my VGA hides my PCI slot, so I'll probably buy a PCI-E card, if I can try one out for compatibility.   And if I'll upgrade headphones, I'll get some correct equipment.   Thanks for your reading anyway.

Corsair HX620, should be more than enough.

Also, fellow STX  + 5850 + AMD CPU users - please post your motherboard (and exact vga model), I have not given up entirely, I might try to sell my motherboard.

Hi!   I have been reading head-fi.org for a long time, as I'm interested in high(er) quality audio.   2 weeks ago I finally decided about my starting gear:   - Sennheiser HD 555 (now with Foam-mod) - Xonar Essence STX   Unfortunately, after I've plugged in the STX (with the...
