Audeze LCD-X
thanks for the reply! I actually came from the LCD 2, after listening to the LCD X in store, i almost cried at the sound. Though not a fan of my Deckard with the LCD X. I will look into the Schiit Mjolnir2!- illbleed

Audeze LCD-X
Any recommendations for a tube amp (do they have ones with dacs as well? if so highly needed). Big plus if its a balanced tube amp. I'm looking for the $500-600 range. Currently pairing the LCD X with the deckard, and really not enjoying it's sound. I also really just prefer a darker sound...- illbleed

Audeze LCD-2 Impressions Thread
So just bought a Micca Origen+ for my work headphones (t40rp). Plugged in my LCD-2 to test out. I'm getting the same sound as my Deckard. Now i'm starting to wonder if my Deckard is messed up. It supports up to 32 bit, but i dont have that option on it. The Micca Origen + lets me set it up to...- illbleed

From what i listened to, you won't need a whole lot of power for the LCD X. I might visit another High end audio store later this month in SF. Believe me i almost cried! Also awesome!! I just bought Tesseract's Polaris Deluxe Edition to prepare myself for the LCD 2. Any other cool bands...- illbleed

at the store only the Chord Dave. i listened to Sigor Ros, Deftones (White Pony album), and Tesseract (One album). The experience was mind blowing.- illbleed

cool! would love to know your thoughts, very close to pulling the gun on the Decard. At the moment my LCD 2f sound like a slightly muffled mess. When songs get too instrumental, it just sounds congested, some of the guitar sounds just dont sound clean or aren't being picked up well. Really...- illbleed

Audeze LCD-2 Impressions Thread
Tried the LCD x today at a high end speaker store. Man i wanted to cry, never heard such beauty. even for older progressive metal albums. Unfortunately didn't get to try the lcd 2 with a higher end amp, but did try them with the Chord Dave. Still a no go. Thinking of picking up Audeze Decard to...- illbleed

I had a similar experience. Never had these demod to me in the past unfortunately so I don't know what they should sound like, but I know I'm not getting the full experience. Bass especially seems lacking unless I change EQ, but nothing like what everyone else is describing. I'm almost 99% sure...- illbleed

Any more thoughts on the bass? Since you have proper amping id love to know what I'm missing. I'm using a Sg 200 shange to power these. Bass is not what I was expecting. I watched a sound demo on YouTube where his planar parts of the cans are shaking, mine don't do that during bass heavy...- illbleed

Yup i see it now, it says Rosewood. The Audeze website lists these are worth more. I'm guessing rosewood cost more to get a hold of? On another note, any recommendations for an amp/dac combo that is perfect for metal? My amp can't really drive these unfortunately (Which i knew ahead of time).- illbleed
