I'd like a Fiio E10 but it seems like people have gone nuts with the price anywhere it's in stock. The 360s don't require a lot of power but my onboard audio doesn't cut it, anytime there's a lot of bass I get crackling. So if any of you know where to get an E10 at retail cost or a good alternative I'd appreciate the assistance.

I read somewhere that the E10 was discontinued and will be replaced with the E10K at a later date.  If you want to stay with the Fiio brand, have a look at the E07K, it is in the similar price bracket (~$90) and it has the added advantage that it can be used as a portable.
 
Other alternatives would be the popular Hifimediy Sabre Dac, but it is recommended that you pair it with an amp (plenty to choose from).

Thanks for the recommendation, I found a site that says they're getting some E10s in July, I'll see how that pans out and go with the E07K if it's a bust.
