Thank you OP for your impressions. I am currently seeing if I want to go down the HD650 or LCD2 path, so this was very helpful.

My pleasure.

Keep us updated. Especially how things sound with the Schiit Lyr, as I see that amp in your signature.

I pulled the trigger on the Lcd2s. Will let you know how it goes with the Lyr.

Let's also remember that both the HD650 and LCD2 have two different versions so we are speaking about 4 slightly different sounding headphones to start with here.

Newer HD650 have no veil compared to the older version (pre 2007)

Similarly, LCD2 rev2 sounds more "clear" than the older rev1.

People who have directly compared each revision are unanymous and say that although the sound signature is similar, there is enough difference in the sound to easily identify which version is which. This is no minor difference here...

So it would be nice to precise what version we are commenting on, comparing...

Tympan, you have a good point.

 

My HD 650 is the later version with the silver drivers. The LCD-2 that I received were brand new and thus should have been the last version before the LCD-3 were released.
