what is the best amp+DAC+... setup for LCD-2? budget doesn't really matters...   and please SUPPORT your answers I read an older thread about the about the same subject and people were giving like ten different answers

As one who has been listening to this amp for nearly a year, it is with no small amount of celebration that I post here to let you all know that Alex Cavalli has finally released his first production amp. There were times that I thought the entire endeavor would collapse into itself and that the...

Hi all,   I'm hoping to be the proud owner of a pair of Audeze LCD-2s and a Centrance DACmini in the next few months. I wanted people's opinions on how best to connect them up. Would the Centrance be best connected to my PC via USB or optical (I have options for either)? I live in the UK...

just some questions about the life span of your headphones.    1. what headphones do you have? 2. how long have you had them? 3. what do you use them for? (ie. just at home, travel etc) 

Hi, has anyone tried a bottlehead amplifier with LCD2's? Do they sell anything that drives them well?   Thanks...

I'm looking for a good tube amp below $1000 and dont mind both balanced and single ended. Rather not get anything from woo audio though. Currently have a burson 160d. Will intend to use the amp with the Audeze LCD 2s, Hifima He5-le and Akg k701s. Am currently considering the Littledot mk6+ and...

http://www.triode.co.jp/english/08.html   Really interesting.  Anyone ever seen these?  Beautiful build.

I was originally looking at purchasing a Woo WA5 last August but at the time was put off by the high shipping cost and the fact that I would have also wanted the parts upgrade and better tubes which would have pushed the cost out to around 6k inc. shipping so I opted for a Red Wine Audio...

I would like to have more musical and warmer and easier to drive alternative to my K701. My first choice would be JVC DX1000, but the price and built quality issue (fragility of hinge) is discouraging. Is there alternative to it at +/- 600USD level?   I pre-selected DX700 and W1000X. How...

Let me start out by giving a little back round info.  I am a professional audio engineer. The studio where I was working at, was sold.  Now I have clients from the studio I worked at asking me to do mixes.  Well I live in a cramped house and have no room to build a control room.  So I have come...

In the other LCD threads owners are very enthusiastic to recommend  music for the LCD. Not wanting to clog those threads I'm creating this one.  One way for myself and others to find new music is from recommendations from others, so LCD brethren give up those favorites. Don't worry so much as...

  I had lcd2 for about less than a month now and my left cup broke. :(   I don't use this headphone everyday, maybe 1 or 2 hours every other day with medium volume with RSA SR71b balanced cable.   Right side of the can is perfectly fine but just weird that one side break this easily...

Hi,   Does anyone know if there are any shops in Hong Kong that offer modding services -specifically, recabling my Alessandros? I hate the cables and before anyone tells me to do it myself, I'm really not up to the task. Any help would be appreciated. \   Thanks! 

Among others, I own a PS1000 from Grado and an LCD2 from Audeze and have had warranty dealings with both companies.  I thought it would be useful to the Head-Fi community to hear of my different experiences dealing with these two companies.   Grado is an established company.   Audeze is a new...

I apologize in advance if this topic has been touched on in any of the other LCD-2 threads but the intra-thread search function doesn't seem to be working well atm.   Anyways, I recently purchased the LCD-2s and plan to use them in a recording studio for critical listening, mixing and...
