CanJam @ RMAF 2015, Oct. 2-4, 2015 -- The Exhibitors!
I was gonna save up for a good used car, especially with the harsh winter coming in the DC area but now that the LCD-4 is out, I'm just gonna have to man up and get my priorities straight. I'll have to get by on my bike for another season. Hey, at least I won't have to suffer with inferior...- Aural1

New Schiit! Ragnarok and Yggdrasil
I wanted to get some more impressions about the Rag and searched through majority of this thread and it seems the topics being discussed was anything but the actual amp. Not a criticism, just wondering if it's because of many people not having the amp? .- Aural1

Audeze LCD-3 Impressions Thread
I found the LCD-3c to be a lot more non-fatiguing than the 3f. With the c's I could do hours but after an hour or so of the f's, my ears are beat. Perhaps with tube amps, it might be different but I wouldn't know because both my amps are solid state which served fine for the c's. .- Aural1

New Audeze LCD3
That's a relief to hear although it probably won't do much for improving the bass.(?) I hate harshness, that's why I gave up my HD-800's quick. I never actually burned in any of my headphones fast, just the slow gradual process of using it so that is probably why I never noticed any significant...- Aural1

Do you have the 3f & mojo? If so, was your initial impression with that amp similar to mine? Btw, I was the one with the 5 hour impression, not bonesnv. :D .- Aural1

New Audeze LCD3
I sent my LCD-3's in recently after a faulty left driver and got a LCD-3f. When I play it now with my Mjolnir, I find that to be a bit bright. In fact I don't like it too much with that amp but it plays fairly well with my other amp which is a lesser powerful Asus Essence Muses. The Asus has...- Aural1

Whenever Rag is mentioned in the same sentence as a female, it's bound to be taken out of context, especially when you include Schiit before it. :D .- Aural1

When I remove the Beef and insert the Yggy (don't have a Raggy yet), she cries. You gotta get your wife a Raggy, after all you help design it!

That's just awesome. Thanks Purrin. Looks like all the impressions here and remarks from vendors who've heard the amp I've talked to down here in DC at the Capital Audiofest two months ago all point to this being a phenomenal amp. Schiit's got a winner. All the hard work and effort Mike and...- Aural1

New Schiit! Ragnarok and Yggdrasil
Details please. I'd love to know what your impressions were comparing the two. Does your Rag get super hot (which I'm sure it's supposed to be) and hummed when it was off like Goldendarko's? How was it with speakers? I'm sure you'll probably do a review.- Aural1

New Schiit! Ragnarok and Yggdrasil
Great review! I have the LCD-3f's as well and liked your impressions. Definitely interested in it. Read that you tried it with the Lyr but did you ever get to check it out with the Mjolnir? Wondering how it compares with the Rag. Obviously better but how much better?- Aural1

New Audeze LCD3
Audeze is a great company and I'm in no way trying to skewer them. Just trying to understand the logistics of their warranty repair with the newest fazors which I thought was a separate additional component they added along with the drivers. I didn't realize that they provide you both for free...- Aural1

New Audeze LCD3
I have a feeling the only thing they did to yours was replace the drivers. If they had added the fazors, they would've charged $300 for it. Here's an easy way to find out. Just sweep your finger inside the earcups to feel for raised vented grooves kind of like an AC vent. It should stick out...- Aural1

New Audeze LCD3
Interesting. I guess Alex meant that if you wanted to merely upgrade the drivers without anything being wrong with it even if the warranty still exists, they're not going to do it anymore. Did you have to pay $300 to get yours fixed with your warranty? If you did, that would suck and make the...- Aural1

I'm not quite sure I want to get mine fazored. I went to the Capital Audiofest two weeks ago and heard several fazored ones and I couldn't say I'm much in a rush to fork over $300 to get it fazored with what I heard. I like the thump I get with mine quite well. I know Audeze has gone through...- Aural1

New Audeze LCD3
I'd be interested in reading that when you get around to it. I've heard the X before and I liked it but I imagine I could listen to the 3 much longer than I could listen to the X although X isn't that fatiguing compared to the HE-560 which I heard recently which I felt has a hot treble.- Aural1

What was your opinion of the LCD-3 compared to the X and 2 overall and in terms of bass after the burn in? Was wondering because I have a 3 manufactured on Jan of 2013, with the left driver having just failed. I'm going to send it in and wanted to know if the current driver they replace it...- Aural1

Came across this at Inner Fidelity. Apparently this bump, exhibited in the newer LCD-3's does affect the bass. This is what Tyll had to say about it.... "The slight bowing of the 30Hz square wave and slight drop-off in the lows of the LCD-3 when compared with the LCD-2 would indicate tighter...- Aural1

Interesting. Wow. I hope that doesn't happen to me. It's a hassle to ship it back but I think I'll eventually have to. It has a certain manufacture flaw which allowed me to get a good deal but I wanna get fixed.- Aural1

Sorry for the abrupt change in topic but I was curious if anyone noticed any changes with LCD-3's with post 1/13 production dates compared to previous ones?
