Great TOTL headphones! Great resolution and layering, would benefit a lot from EQ. Just the headband is too tight, but the manufacture offered a free headband with less clamp which will be in their new productions

Make your audio experience exceptional with the stylish and advanced LCD-5 Wired Open-Back Over-Ear Planar Magnetic Headphones, a flagship product from the reputable brand, Audeze. This high-quality headphone is a testament to Audeze's decade-long legacy in setting the benchmark for planar magnetic headphone performance.
The LCD-5 is a significant upgrade from its predecessors, the LCD-2, LCD-3, and LCD-4, with improvements in every aspect - from drivers and earpads to frame design. This model is designed to redefine performance and comfort in the audio industry.
Experience unparalleled transparency, resolution, and speed with the LCD-5. Its drivers are engineered with award-winning Fluxor magnets and updated Fazor waveguides, coupled with our new patent-pending Parallel Uniforce voice coils. This unique technology uses varying width parallel traces to maintain low impedance and increase voltage headroom, resulting in lower distortion, better diaphragm control, and improved sonic resolution.
The LCD-5's acoustic chamber has been optimized for precise imaging and an extremely clean and clear soundstage. The newly designed sculpted earpads and acoustically transparent mesh minimize reflections and resonance. The Parallel Uniforce voice coil allows for increased space between magnets, resulting in improved frequency response and a more open soundstage.
Weighing only 420 grams, the LCD-5 is designed for comfortable long-term wear. The use of lightweight and high-rigidity materials such as magnesium, aluminum, and acetate in its construction ensures durability without compromising comfort. The headphones are hand-assembled in our California workshop, ensuring the finest craftsmanship.
The LCD-5 also features newly designed low-profile Fazor waveguides to further reduce diffractions and interactions with the ear. The sculpted, internally sloped earpad architecture reduces unwanted resonances and interior reflections, providing a superior seal for all shapes and sizes and reducing fatigue during long listening sessions.
The LCD-5 comes with a specially tuned ultra-high purity adaptable balanced cable. This cable, made with directional OCC high-purity copper strands, provides a low capacitance and low resistance path for the signal to travel from your amp to the drivers, maintaining unsurpassed clarity and precision. It comes standard with an XLR terminated cable for a balanced system or can be used with the single-ended adapter.
In summary, the LCD-5 Wired Open-Back Over-Ear Planar Magnetic Headphones offer a superior, comfortable, and high-fidelity audio experience, making it a preferred choice for discerning music and audio content enthusiasts.
