Review Summary

Rated 4 out of 5

Unbelievable sound

This is a SERIOUS pair of headphones. I compared it head to head (no pun intended) with the LC8s and other Audeze and Focal headphones, and this one was miles ahead of the others, even with my little iBasso player. It is built to work well with low powered devices and high power amps alike. The sound is unbelievably clear and well-defined. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is due to its weight. It is very heavy and can be tiring to wear it. The difference in quality of sound makes it worth it to me, but sometimes my neck starts to hurt a bit after 30-60 minutes of use. I decided to keep it in the end, but was a bit torn. The open back design makes it seem like you're not wearing headphones, but listening to a killer set of speakers.

Easy to drive, outstanding dynamics, punchy bass and great detail!

This is our most popular headphone, driven by its popularity with audiophiles, but especially music producers and mastering engineers. Its overall tonality is neutral, which helps ensure that music mixed on it will translate across most speaker systems. The LCD-X's excellent transient response and accuracy allow producers and mastering engineers to hear all the details in their mixes. And with the LCD-X, you can hear their recordings as they intended.

The LCD-X Creator Edition comes with the Standard Single-ended cable and our new economy travel case.

Microscopic Detail
Our Planar Magnetic drivers reproduce even the most intimate details with microscopic clarity, ensuring that your FINAL final mix is exactly as you intend it to be.

Pinpoint Imaging
Our Ultra-thin diaphragms and powerful Neodymium magnets deliver some of the most accurate sound reproduction of any headphone in the world.

Proven and Trusted
Audeze headphones are the preferred solution for audio professionals and can be found in some of the world's most prestigious production houses.
