The Audeze LCD-2 Ortho thread (New)
I've RMA'ed my LCD-2 rev.2 twice (balance issue) and during both time they took around 2 weeks to get back to me after receiving. Since Audez'e is close to where I live (~30 miles), I receive my headphones the next day after they ship it with FedEx (w/ tracking # given on same day).- FearSC549

Sennheiser HD 598 Impressions Thread
Quote: Quote: HD 380, PXC 350 & 450, and PC 350's earpad all fit on the 5xx series. It makes the headphone sound muddy with recessed highs; I don't recommend it.- FearSC549
