Consider investing in proper gear rather than buying $4 worth of parts in a factory-assembled $25 package.

Or if you want something comparable but just a little bit better, have a look at this.
Great review! I'm all about buying proper gear when it comes to audio (I already have most of it; I just can't take it on this move). In this particular instance it's all about a kind of stop-gap solution. Article definitely had some good food for thought.
