I bought mine in the creator's package from a local audiophile shop. It came with the updated leather headband. It is shipped in a big cardboard box with a hell of a lot of dense foam padding cutout to fit the headphones. Effectively a foam-filled cardboard version of the Pelican-style carrying...

Mine came with the LCD Suspension Headband stock (https://www.audeze.com/products/accessories/lcd-suspension-headband), so I don't imagine the weight distribution would be all that much different than the carbon, aside from that amazing carbon look

I have the new headband on mine and really like it. It definitely distributes the weight across a wide area. I also want to get the carbon band though! :money_mouth:

Nice. I like those and might be a good solution, as I am adding the Audeze Mobius to my computer headphone selection for my gaming needs. Ah yes, thank you. I had seen photos of these on display, found them on Amazon, but they were just the cheap knock-offs.

Hi everyone, What stand are folks using for these? Ideally looking for something clean/modern looking, but sturdy. Cheers

Ok cool, thanks for the tip! Will report back

Well, the audio seems to be quite flat, doesn't pack a lot of 'punch', especially in the bass. However, extremely clear Also, does anyone use a broad EQ software that layers on top of whatever Windows is pushing to the DAC? Something like FxSound by example?

I'm afraid I won't be able to describe what I hear to the extent that you folks do, but I will definitely post whatever impressions I get!

Alright...welp...I bought the Sennheiser HDV 820. Reputable brand, made in Germany, good reviews. Screw it! :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes::o2smile: Hopefully I made a decent choice! Shot my price target all to hell. Being an amateur in this arena, I decided to go with a name I knew .

I had looked at some of that type of gear, just a bit more than what I want to spend right now. Was hoping for a full setup under 3,000 with the cans. So maybe a bit over the 1000 guide for a DAC and amp Thanks, but if you look at my post, you'd see I considered the brand. After reading more...

Hi everyone! I just picked up a pair myself. I’m currently using a Pro-ject HeadBox DS DAC/amp combo box. However, the volume being reset every time you turn it on is starting to drive me crazy. I would like to switch out for something else. I am connecting to a Windows 10 PC. I would like to...

Hi everyone! I've tried reading as much as possible, but this thread is unbelievable lengthy already, and there just isn't a ton of information regarding the H9's as they compare to the Bose QC35.   I have been a long-time frequent traveler with my Bose QC25s in my bag. The sound is the sound...

Here are a couple of photos I snapped of my AS-2 Black Rhodium/Polished set.  Another big thanks to Dale and Andy.  They sound even better than they look, been a great addition to the trip I'm on!   (Click for slightly larger FB sized 2048px)    

Hey team,    After some time, I have finally received my AS-2's!  There were some minor delays in the process (mostly due to the fact that I have smaller than average ear canals), but I am happy to announce that Dale and his team really came through with making it right.     Incredible...

This is awesome guys!  Thanks a lot for the lists!  I'm currently waiting on a new set of IEMs that I'll really be able to enjoy these on!    Nickerson, where you at in Denver?  I went to Colorado School of Mines in Golden.  I miss that area so damn much!
