Excellent combo

Excellent combo. These headphones are a beast. They sound really good, but only if driven by a very good and powerful amp. I have a desktop amp and I never was able to drive the lcd2 with a portable amp satisfactorily, however the ifi idsd drive then effortlessly.

Great goods

Audeze LCD-2 are the gateway to high-end audio. Lush romantic sound, and sounds great with all genres ifI delivers clean power to the Audezes, so this is a great combo LCD-2 matches well with iDSD BL Cons: LCD-2 is heavy. But it doesn't bother me because I got a neck of a WWE star LCD-2 packaging could use some refinement. My case had lot of dirt marks, and inside contents were not very organized. Still working with adorama to find out whats that about

My best headphone ?? yet

Not yet fully burn in but the mids are fantastic. The bass is full and tight. Soundstage is ample but not enourmous. They are heavier than many but very very comfortable. I can wear them for several hours no problem. The idsd black lable is amazing as well The sound quality is top notch and also works as a preamp. The many modes for power and sensitivity tailors to any type of headphone confidently. Using this combo together is great however the lcd-2 are going to be mainly driven by marantz gear.

Audeze LCD-2 Delivers on its promises

Simply put, the headphones are amazing. I haven't used the included AK Jr. as it wouldn't drive them and they require decent amplification. The headphones are very well crafted, the lambskin earpads are like pillows on your ears, incredibly comfortable. The sound these headphones deliver is just as I stated simply amazing.. I was worried they would be slightly too neutral or cold, but the bass they deliver extends very well, it's very strong, controlled, and present when the song calls for it. Mids are lush and detailed but not overly forward. Highs are very tame, but still present making for a very non-fatiguing listening experience....
