    Audeze LCD-X

    I am sorry, i have not. It was also in my set of choices (blind buy) but i chose the LCD X for the build quality and aftersales services. I believe that within 1000 to 2000 USD there is not much deviation from each other. Its just that they are presented differently. Unless LCD X compared to...

    Audeze LCD-X

    I cannot speak for other headphones but with T1, i prefer the LCD X more for the reason it has low end that lacks in T1 also, T1 sounded thin compared to LCD X and both are really unforgiving to poorly mastered recordings but i do agree that the highs is little bit peaky.

    Audeze LCD-X

    It could also be that, you are just new to this kind of sound (as from what i have understood on your earlier post). It could be really be "too much" at first, same goes if your coming from bright headphones to a darker one it seems everything is smeared out. Let it settle first and give time to...

    Audeze LCD-X

    I think the LCD X has the usual 4K "dip" (Audeze dip) but it also has a slight rise with 6KHz that is why sometimes it is quite bright (bordering sibilant) which is where our ears are most sensitive. Comparing to Beyerdynamic T1 2nd Gen, - this sounds that it is really peaking since it has the...

    Burson Composer 3X Performance (ESS9038, DSD512, Bluetooth, balanced output...)

    How will this differ to the Conductor Reference? Please correct me if i am wrong but this does not have any digital filters right?

    Audeze LCD-X

    Hi, I can only attest in my experiences since I have 2 (i think) neutral-bright headphones which are T1 2nd Gen and recently acquired LCD X. I also listen to some electronic/edm genres and at times, it can sound bright/sharp but not as piercing as T1 2nd gen. In terms of bass it has a lot of...

    Audeze LCD-X

    Hi, So last night, I did a comparison of the LCD X using 2 amps which are Auralic Taurus MKII and Burson Soloist SL, I just wanted to share my impressions: Burson Soloist SL (Single Ended) Now, I know why many are saying that this is a good combo. With a full bass, meaty mids and an open treble...

    You are right, i never passed 9oclock in the volume knob using single ended connection. Probably, i have to buy and try balanced connection for the LCD X. Currently the sound of LCD X using SE is very flat but there is a certain heft and authority specially in the bass region. Comparing to my...

    Hi! I hope everyone is safe during these days. I recently acquired a LCD X headphones at a very nice price. I cannot find any articles that confiirms the output impedance of the SE and BAL of Taurus amp (still also waiting for the feedback of Auralic) and I am just wondering if its compatible...

    Audeze LCD-X

    Coming from Beyerdynamic T1 2nd Gen, i can say that T1 bass are a bit bloated and less defined compared to LCD X. T1 also have recessed mids compared to LCD X. In terms of treble, LCD X is less pronounced compared to T1, it is a little bit peaky on poor recordings but not as excessive and...

    Audeze LCD-X

    Hi, It might sound odd, but let me ask anyway.. But did anyone of you experienced that when barefooted and touched the earcups (any metal part side from the headband) there is a little bit of hum without any playing music? Even the amp is turned off? However if i put something in my feet the...

    Final Audio D8000 Planar Magnetic Headphone

    Thank you for all of your replies. I am planning on purchasing the Pro Edition, I was got concerned on one review in YouTube that shows that the sliding mechanism is already loose.
