Outstanding Headphones
Pros: Incredible bass, mids and treble. Excellent Design and construction quality. Hand Made in USA
Cons: Can get a tad uncomfortable if worn for more than 4 hours.
These are simply amazing. For a price far below it's competitors like the Sennheiser HD800 and the various Beyerdynamic models, there is nothing better than these.
First time listening to these amazing cans!!
Pros: Amazing clarity with great separation. Bass was very nice. Huge soundstage.
Cons: A bit heavy. Hard to pay $1000 for a pair of headphones. Requires a very nice amp.
I just had a chance to finally listen to these Audez'e LCD-2 headphones and must say that these were absolutely amazing. My local shop had it paired with the Schiit Lyr (not sure if these pair well together) and they sounded very nice. The soundstage and separation were top notch and the bass was deep and very present. When you actually get to see and wear these cans you can tell immediately that they are very high quality and built with the finest materials. They are a bit heavy but it didn't bother me in any way. It seems crazy to pay $1000usd for headphones but compared to the HD800 and HiFiMan HE-6 they seem to be a great value. Before I listened to these I would never pay that high...

Just ok, but not the best!
Pros: Mids, treble, bass, unique design, wood
Cons: ,price for sound, slightly slow and tad bit muddy, decayed when listening to fast bpm music, weight, slightly rolled off highs
Purchased one of the later batches of the LCD2 rev.1's back in '2010' just few months before the rev.2 came out. A quick review on these is that, they have a slightly dark sound signature, the bass on these are absolutely great but the bass extension and bass impact on these are good but not excellent (same applies to the LCD2 rev.2's which I will write a short comparison in a sec). The mids on this thing is absolutely nice for those who luster for a bit more clear vocal reproduction, an SS amp would benefit dearly over a tube amp, not to say that a tube amp pairs up badly with the LCD2's it depends on what you want with your overall music listening experience. ...

LCD2 with Lyr-Bifrost = Awesome
Pros: Incredible sound
Cons: none
I never thought it was possible for such rich sound from a headphone. Simply amazing headphones.
Audez'e LCD-2 rev 2
Pros: Awesome bass. Natural tone. Built like a tank.
Cons: Resolution, detail, depth and airiness falls behind competitors. Heavy. A bit uncomfortable.
The LCD-2 has a very special sound. Everything sounds very natural and organic. I guess the best way to describe the sound is that there is nothing digital about it. No harsh treble, no grain, nothing that sticks out. Design, build, comfort These are very large and heavy headphones built like tanks. Metall, wood and leather - no plastic. They are put together extremely well and breathe much higher quality than the Hifiman headphones. I like the look, the grilles and the angled pads make for a cool appearance on your head and the wood is beautiful. I have one issue though - comfort! These press VERY hard on your head (more so than the monster...

LCD-2
Pros: ovreall balance, bass, naturalness, easy to drive
Cons: heavy, cable
ovreall balance, bass, naturalness, easy to drive
LCD2: They look great but comfort? Lacking.
Pros: Looks fantastic.
Cons: Comfort level is low and cable is stiff. Needs good pairing.
OK, this is a quick placeholder review. I didn't have more than a couple of hours with these and they were sitting in good company. Dac was a Metric Halo ULN2. Stax O2 out of an exstata. HD800 out of a B22 and SPL Auditor. First off, the LCD2 comfort level was AWFUL! It's stiff and clamps onto my average-sized head with such force I had to continually adjust it. I couldn't listen to it for more than 5 to 10 minutes. Such was the level of pain it inflicted on the side of my head. The O2 and HD800 were spades ahead in comfort-level. The LCD2 cable, a starquad cable (a microphone cable I believe) was stiff and just got in the way. Sound is arguably...
