Audeze LCD-3 Headphones
Anyone demo these?
Steve Guttenburg likes them better than the 5k Stax. I did read something about consistancy problems between the LCD-3 Headphones and measurements. |

KingRT,
Everything I have read about the Audeze LCD-3 was absolutely stellar. I haven't listened to the LCD-2 or the LCD-3. ~Mike |

I've only read good things about them too. The Hifiman HE-6's are supposed to offer similar performance, but require more juice.

I have the LCD 2.1's - I love them. Heard the 3's: step up again but of course decreasing marginal returns. All reward a lovely amp.
I'd suggest buying a second hand pair of the 2's - either the 2.1's or the 2.2's - I prefer the 2.1's: both benefit from an after market cable eg Moon Audio and a good head amp: need not be expensive - I have an O2 and its great. The all have the same house sound and endless bass properly driven. Can recommend easily.

The "decreasing marginal returns" does slow upgrade-itus. I purchased the Audeze LCD 3 from Ivan today. Brand new in the box for $725.00. Last day of his sale. Who would have thought that the Audeze LCD 3, held that kind of mark up, at full MSRP?? This site rules! Last edited by KingRT; 05-23-2012 at 10:07 PM. |

You read about a lot of user getting them and just sending them back for the fix, not even knowing if they have a problem. Once returned, they swear by the improvement. Dunno? |
