Skullcandy Titan Review: Head-Fi Sanity Check
One little nitpick... the ink'd DO have L/R indicators, they're just very small. Look at the strain reliefs closely.- LantherZero

Ubuntu/Linux and USB DACs
Don't worry about device name. Does it work? If it does, then good! That being said, PCMxxxx with an analog in and analog out sounds like your onboard sound to me, not the USB DAC. USB audio is fine.- LantherZero

how important are amps?
Yes, the HD555 benefits greatly from an amp.Most headphones do, really. I'd not pay more than the cost of the headphones, though. Build or get someone to build for you a cmoy.- LantherZero

Review by 'LantherZero' on item 'Sennheiser HD 201 Headphones'
I was looking for a cheap headphone to carry with me in public, something that if lost or stolen would not be a big loss to me. I bought the HD201, and was pleasantly surprised. The highs are fairly crisp, the mids are very detailed considering the price, and the lackluster bass can mostly be...- LantherZero

There aren't very many decent headphones for under $100, and compared to the better <$100 headphones those are not very good, but for $10 that's pretty amazing.- LantherZero

JVC flats. Yes, the ones you can get for under $10 on ebay. Try a pair, if only to show yourself that price isn't everything and that there exists a headphone you can recommend to people who don't want to spend even $50 on headphones but want an upgrade from their ibuds, skullcandies, cheapo...- LantherZero

Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones
Pretty much every time someone sees a headphone amp of mine, they ask what it is, and when I tell them they seem shocked. Apparently most people think a headphone amp is for making your headphones super loud. They do about the same when they see me wearing anything circumaural... "wow, those are...- LantherZero
