Exactly.

  Sounds like LCD-X characteristics...

Can you please clarify what you mean by this?  Based on my experiences the two do not sound alike.  Thanks.

I had a chance to compare my lcd-2 with the lcd-x about three months ago, and they sounded very similar to be honest

The person who posted above me in that post was looking for a bass characteristic that was more like an LCD-X than an LCD-2's bass style.

So I just got my LCD-2 Aluminum today and got a chance to have a listen before going to work. The kick drum sounded as if I were right next to real kick drum - yes I have, I play in a band. I'm liking the overall mellow sound signature so far.

Didn't feel that was the case at all for me. When I got my LCD-X I dropped my 2.2 and 2f off at my local fire station...

Now, I have both 2 and 3 the newest version, but I still love lcd2.

Anyone willing to share their Harmon response EQ curve for the latest LCD2f? I am not sure I have the right curve as I have no way of measuring the response.
 
These are my settings in EasyQ (Jriver plug-in):
 
<Equalizer PatchFormat="2" GainRange="12 dB" GlobalGain="-3">
  <Band Mode="Low Shelving" Frequency="22.4296625" Gain="-0.272727273"
        Bandwidth="2.44"/>
  <Band Mode="Low Shelving" Frequency="169.281943" Gain="1.90909091"
        Bandwidth="1.82"/>
  <Band Mode="Peak/Dip" Frequency="10000" Gain="-3" Bandwidth="1.47"/>
  <Band Mode="Peak/Dip" Frequency="20000" Gain="0.818181818" Bandwidth="1.89996863"/>
  <Band Mode="Peak/Dip" Frequency="116.003592" Gain="-1.12121212" Bandwidth="1.89996863"/>

What DAC and amp were you using to drive the 2.2 and 2f?

The aluminum edition will sound exactly the same as any of the other 2016 LCD-2 headphones. The aluminum and wood are cosmetic only.

Thanks, is the wood or aluminum edition heavier?

I guessing the wood is heavier.  Adorama doesn't list weight of the aluminum model, however.

I work in the wood products industry and I can't imagine any wood being lighter than aluminum, as aluminum is already an extremely light/low density metal.
