I just ordered my Grado RS1i which will arrive in a week or two..
 
I used to have Grado SR80 and did not think much about amps... but now from what I understand I will need some amp for the RS1i but am trying to ease my wallet into the hifi world until I order MAD EAR HD+ amp.
 
I will have to find some cheaper stuff to drive my headphones, is there any soundcard you recommend for Grado RS1i ?

PS. I have been eye-baling ASUS Xonar Essence STX as a possibility.
