Audeze LCD-2C Classic - Impressions Thread
My suggestion is to go with Mojo to a local audio store and check another pair of the same model. So that you will be sure that your particular pair is not broken.- Andrey2019

It is great that development is going forward! Maybe some time later in a custom modification signature will be fixed and we could use it. (something like this but for newer firmware: http://www.fidelizer-audio.com/fiio...6-released-with-bright-sound-signature-fixed/) Or maybe @FiiO could...- Andrey2019

FiiO X7 Mk II 2GB RAM + 64GB ROM + ESS9028 PRO + Balanced + DSD + BT 4.1 aptX + Dual mSD + Dual Band WiFi + Opt Out
Hi all. Things are definitely changed in 1.0.6 compared to 1.0.4. I do not say that sound is bad - I'm saying that it is brighter. And brighter sound is totally not in my taste... But as I said before - I perfectly reverted to 1.0.4 and now it sounds the way I like it.- Andrey2019

So now I could definitely and confidently confirm that player changed it sound signature after I upgraded from 1.0.4 to 1.0.6 firmware. In 1.0.6 sound is brighter - and it is totally unacceptable for me. I just have a pain in my ears from this sound. It is too piercing for me. I have tried to...- Andrey2019

Amp recommendations for Audeze LCD-2
Hi @exhale Thanks for suggestion! Unfortunately - as I mention in initial question Monoprice, Burson Audio, Schiit, WooAudio and Klipsch are not available in my city. Buying product in internet without auditioning it - too much gamble for me... So I'm searching for different options.- Andrey2019

Audeze LCD-2C Classic - Impressions Thread
Hi. About DT 1990 - salesman in shop said to me that they are quite intense headphones. LCD2c are relaxed/laid back. And I really like those qualities of LCD2c a lot. As my main usage scenario for them - is relaxing after work while listening to music. About different headphone models. This...- Andrey2019

Audeze LCD-2C Classic - Impressions Thread
After auditioning about 12-15 pairs of different headphones before purchase I decided that personally I like exactly this kind of sound. And one more note here - bass is not boomy and not fatiguing at the same time. I think you could also try Aeon headphones - just to listen and share your...- Andrey2019

By the way - I was able to listen Aeon headphones. My first impression was "Where is the bass???" :) They could be quite cool - but I think they are designed definitely not for "bass heads" :)- Andrey2019

@JNKM , @BrotherKathos Recently I did some research for a best amp synergy for LCD2c. And indeed, I found that Lyr 3 is the most mentioned match/good pair for LCD2c. (according to the description of other people) Now I'm thinking how I personally could try to listen this pair... (Lyr 3 is not...- Andrey2019

Amp recommendations for Audeze LCD-2
By the way @spacequeen7 , I can see you are also using Topping D50 in your audio chain. Why is it so? Gustard A20H DAC is not capable as dac and you think I will need to add custom dac section to it? Or you just have version of this amplifier without DAC inside? (In my local shops there are...- Andrey2019

Thanks for quick reply. I like that there is a lot of bass for me (I do not know how to describe it properly. What means "thick"/"loose"?) It was just good and I had a lot of it. Just have subjective feeling that with time (at the day that I did an upgrade in firmware) there is less bass. And I...- Andrey2019

I totally agree that device should have latest firmware. I have similar problem: sometimes (quite often) when I turning on device it is going in a continuous unstopable reboot cycle. I could only turn on device from boot loader menu. I totally dislike this situation. It was present in both 1.0.4...- Andrey2019

Thanks for the advice. If Fiio will not fix this issue in new firmware that will be in this December (1.0.7) - I will do this.

Hi. I have upgraded my Fiio X7 mark 2 from firmware 1.0.4 to 1.0.6. To me it is seems like sound signature of the player changed. It is brighter now. And I totally dislike this change of signature.
