Feed them quality recordings and they will reward you

These are the type of audio product that really separates the good recordings from the bad, going through my own library now and have been very pleased with the sound on some recordings and not so much on others. A good amp is critical as well, they need power to get the most out of them. I started with the headphones output of my TEAC UD-503 and recently added a Woo Audio WA6-SE headphone amp which takes them to a new level. As far as build quality they are top notch except the cable feels a little cheap for this price point.

Want the Best? pay up.

I was an avid fan of the HD650's and the Hifiman 400i until I head these.

Nice headphones

Warning! The stock cables are garbage!!. Too much of a treble boost and a off balanced sound. Highly recommend buying the LCD 4 cables or after market brands. Not knowing anything, I decided to have a second pair of cables for backup and purchased the 399 set from Adorama along with the LCD 2. I'm so happy I did that. Anyway, gave the muffins an extra 4 day burn in time. I almost threw the headphones in the trash before I swapped out the cables. Sounds way better with the upgraded Audeze Kimber cables. The sound signature is a flat frequency with a medium bass boost and some color in the 2k-20khz portion. Couples perfect with the Apogee groove 30th. Plays good without an amp but you lose some mid range and gain some bass. The headphones are very comfortable and sturdy. Beautiful quality. The Rosewood has a nice finish and feel. Would consider a Bamboo construction for a higher demand...... What about liquid wood LCD's???

Stunning headphones

Amazing headphones with stunning sound quality. Yes they are quite big and on the heavy side but are still comfortable enough for long listening sessions. Feed them with some power to really get them to sound their best.

AUDEZE LCD-2 Specifications

About AUDEZE LCD-2

The AUDEZE LCD-2 is a original "game-changing" headphones and the one that propelled into a world of rave reviews. The headphone earcups are made of Rosewood with lambskin leatherette earpads.

Beautiful Sound
The LCD-2 is the most forgiving of the LCD Collection due to a magnetic structure that provides extremely low distortion. Fast and dynamic with terrific bass, the midrange - where music lives - is superb as are the golden highs. AUDEZE proprietary technology eliminates breakup modes found in other designs and improves clarity.

Focus and Frequency Extension
Patent-pending Fazor elements guide and manage the flow of sound in the headphone for improved focus, greater frequency extension top and bottom and remarkable 3D holographic imaging. The LCD-2 must be driven by an external headphone amplifier or integrated amp.

Fazor Technology
Audeze's patent-pending Fazor elements improve clarity, focus and the already spectacular holographic imaging. Two Fazor elements are placed just outside the two magnet structures that surround the diaphragm. They guide and manage the flow of sound around the magnets and are standard on all LCD headphones.

AUDEZE LCD-2 Features

  • Planar magnetic drivers for better dynamics and frequency response
  • Premium leather for style and durability
  • Fazor elements
  • Large ultra thin-film diaphragms
  • Double-sided magnetic structure
