RE: I'm a newbie, prospective headphone user...

Frihed89 is correct. I'm a former Janus owner.

Before you throw a lot of money at headphones, maybe it would be better to start modestly and educate yourself about cans and amps. Like speakers, headphones can vary greatly in sound quality while the differences between headphone amps are a lot smaller. There can be informative posts on head-fi.com and one eventually learns to separate the wheat from the crap, err, chaff.

Good luck. It will be an entertaining journey.
