i recently bought a Laptop(Lenovo Thinkpad X130e w/ AMD E-450) and so far i am enjoying it.

the keyboard is pleasure to type on, the whole laptop is very solid.
it runs very cool and quiet and the most impressive of all is that the battery life is really good
my problem is that the sound coming from the headphone jack SUCKS.
i listen to alot of music(in FLAC format) and HD Movies and the audio is very muddy and somewhat distorted
I am coming from a desktop PC with a Creative X-FI Titanium HD and my earplug is Ultimate Ears Triple-FI 10
the difference of sound quality between my desktop PC and my laptop is Night and Day
i looked at a dedicated sound card for laptops but what i saw was most of them are using Express Card Slot which my laptop does not have
my laptop only has 2 USB 2.0 and 1 Powered USB 2.0 (Total of 3)
i looked at the Creative Sound Blaster Recon3D which uses USB but that product looks hideous and overpriced
so i figure i made a thread on this forum and ask for advise as to how i can get better audio quality out of my laptop
