No, this version does not have the fazor. I've owned several and even opened some to confirm, 53x serials are 2.2 fazor style chassis but are 2.1 style drivers with a slightly different tensioning to them. The specific picture I posted may maybe make it seems like there are points there but it'...

https://forum.hifiguides.com/t/audeze-lcd-2-pre-fazors/17646 From the audeze website: ‘Any LCD-2s with serial number starting with 54 or higher should have Fazors. Any starting with 53 (and a few starting with 56 from the early days) will be a pre-Fazor model unless the drivers were serviced...

Bump and price drop

Mine have just shipped and I'm very excitedly awaiting them! Hopefully I got them late enough to dodge the shipping hell :P I'll absolutely be posting impressions of it not long after I get it, alongside some comparisons to various other TOTL headphones like K1000, HE-1000, Lambda Signature...

All 3 K1000's are different versions, yes. Different serial ranges had slight silent revisions differences that lead to slightly different tonal changes due to mechanical differences. The big one in the middle is a Jecklin Float Model 2 Electrostatic, the can on the far right is a Peerless...

My pretty-sloppy apartment headphone desk. Lots more headphones just not in the picture there.

It's not often we see any company do something this kind. Damn. Bravo to you, HiFiMan. You trying to sway me into the susvara? :)

Damn! This flew right under my radar, wish I would have known about this, I would have attended! Looks like you guys had a lot of fun :) Is next year likely going to be around the same date?

Sadly won't have time. Sorry! Keep in touch and you can borrow things.

Pre-meet meet in the hotel. Super excited to see you all tomorrow!

I feel your stress, I had a K1000 restored and it's going to arrive the day I leave and I really don't have time to wait for it if it's late. Going to have to try to organize an early pickup or something.

We'll be running an adapted Carver 275 Crimson for headphones, you're welcome to hook up to it, or use one of my group's HE-1000V1's if you don't want to pop anything. And oh man Spica's! Wish I could justify carting them back

I had the 3.1 and 3.2 briefly and didn’t like them much compared to the proper f0 35Hz Bass Neutral K1000’s, for some reason. Some of the magic was just lost. I’d be super eager to try the 872 on some things, if you could bring it! I’ve never actually heard one, super rare can to see out in the...

Oh damn, you’re coming? Hey, that would be super awesome. I’ll make sure to bring all the headphones I’ve told you about, including all the Sigmas and 407/507 so you can hear them all :)
