So I've recently developed an obsession for audio quality that I've determined is not going to go away! I've got Sennheiser HD280s that sound worse than some $20 Skullcandy's on my PoS MP3 Player because my PC's sound card is garbage. I was looking at the HT Omega Striker for an upgrade but I was wondering if there was a cheaper option you guys might know of that I could go with?

Yeah, the HT Omega Striker is a good choice for that price range.  I like my Fatal1ty titanium soundcard.  My buddy has the Striker and I assume he likes it because he doesn't complain about them.  Another option is getting an amp/usb soundcard from headroom.  I did this to improve sound on my laptop and get more power to my Sennheisers.  you can check it out here.  But that is expensive.  So go with the HT Omega.
