I'm currently listening mainly to Google Play Music and CD rips via a Sonos Connect,Lehmann Linear and HD600's. The Lehmann is a new purchase and has taken things to a far better level. I'm now thinking about my next pair of headphones or not. Bearing in mind my source is not up there with the...

Im planning to buy a pair of ciem. i already searched headfi and I didn't find anyone comparing these 2 iems so i guess making a new thread might help.    I prefer the sound of lcd2s and I am currently using the se535, my complain is se535 has this mid bump that makes it really fatiquing after...

I've recently been making huge advances in my listening experience by purchasing the LCD-2. While awaiting it's arrival I figured I would explore the solutions out there for amping it preferably with a dedicated DC as well. Some of the names and designs I've come across and loved the ascetics...

On my search for comfortable headphones, it seems that the pressure of the headband is much more bothersome than clamping pressure or anything like that. As long as the cups are soft and somewhat circamaural im ok, but almost any headphone, no matter how light (even the CAL!), I feel pressure...

Well thought I would just ask as am a bit  irritated at present, have a new pr of LCD 2.2 with fazor and am really impressed but, over 1/2 of my music is unlistenable    as recorded with obvious dynamic range issues. Is the only way now for assessing the suitability of a Cd is to refer to the...

Was wondering if any one has heard this amp.   I m looking for amp that has super low noise floor and has lots of power.  This amp seems to fit the bill, but I can't find any reviews on it and I m really scared to pull the trigger on an amp that I can't find any information on and I can't listen...

Do your high dollar amps shine at very low volumes. Or mostly with average or above average volumes.

All of you who have replied to my multiple queries re Grado's, I am really appreciative ,it was an extremely difficult choice as am not able to listen 1st due to 800km round trip by plane, it makes it a bit hard. So said, I did a normal female thing and after taking into account, build quality...

I come across numerous terms that just don't make sense to me.  I can understand a more relative relation when one reviewer says a headphone is detailed than another, but on the contrary, when you lack the experience of having gotten a hold of some of the best of the best headphones, it's hard...

hello everyone I was wondering which has a more bass boost centrance hifim8 or alo rx mk3   and which is better for audeze lcd2 rev 2 non fazor

Well, I've had my LCD-2's for what seems like forever now and the original adhesive rings keeping the earpads on eventually wore out allowing them to slide (and make an adhesive mess on the plate they attach to). Audeze sent me new ones upon request, but for whatever reason, the new ones never...

Help please------------ Can you satisfactorily run an Audeze LCD-2 @60 ohms nominal into a Yamaha AS1000 amp headphone outlet @ 32 ohms @ 1000hz 23mw ??????????????? Need info reasonably fast

I have read a thousand comments about the mjolner as a headphone amp but have not seen any mention of how it sounds as a preamp. I have audeze lcd 2 v2s and it looks to be ideally suited as a amp for them but I also intend to use it as a preamp for my emotiva airmotiv 5s on my computer desk top...

  I have followed this thread for some time. I recently just purchased a Sansui 9090 functioning but in need of some TLC. As this is my first foray into the vintage world I would appreciate any suggestions who I might consider to attempt to restore this to its past glory.  Any help would be...

I am very shortly going to be purchasing a pair of Audeze LCD 2 for my first pair of cans but am still new to the headphone world and was wondering if pair the LCD 2 with the Algorhythm theorem 720 would be a good setup? If not what would be a good amp to use along with the LCD 2? Thanks for the...

I've been thinking if I should buy an Audeze LCD-2 + Moon-Audio Silver Dragon V3 Headphone cable + Moon-Audio Silver Dragon V3 USB-cable + Alo Audio Pan Am + Passport battery pack,   Or an Audeze LCD-3 with just the stock cable + cheap USB-cable + Alo Audio Pan am without Passport battery...

JH custom in ear monitors $400USD how would they perform compared to $1000 Audeze over the ear?

So after a relaxing night watching the Rugby and NBA I found myself listening to music in my room and moved from the speakers to headphones. I turned my power amp off but accidently left the pre amp on which has a Zu Untertone sub connected. I then put on my LCD2's and started listening to some...

hello guys   I bought the mad dog v3.2 and i like them so far   now I need to add a bassy headphone that is warm in sound and good good bass punch well controlled    Something that will shake my head with the punch, and still have nice mids ( not too upfront ) and nice treble but not to be...

One of the most interesting industry stories I've seen since Head-Fi's founding in 2001 (and before that) has been Audeze.   I remember talking to Sankar Thiagasamudram (Audeze's Co-Founder and President/COO) on the telephone in 2009, when he was explaining to me that they (he and Alex Rosson...

Hello,   While this may be my first post, I assure you I am not new to the world of headphones or this forum.  I started to really get into this hobby around 2000, but had some interest in the late '90's.  At the time Headwize was the authoritative forum.  Then Head-fi appeared and grew.  It...

I'm back to road shopping, meaning I move around a bit. Tubes are not the best traveling companion. Way to delicate. So I found a new home for the Woo WA-22 and tubes (which I thoroughly enjoyed using, primarily with a set of balanced T1's). The new owner has told me he is very happy with his...

Hi! So the question at hand is this.  I've been pondering the long debate between the he-500 and the audeze lcd-2, and I've finally decided on the audeze lcd 2. This is where my problem begins. I'm relatively new to the audiophile world, and I'm planning on doing the upgrades all at once. I...

Hey all, I've been a full size headphone junkie for years and am now looking to possibly jump over to CIEMs for a few reasons like portability, isolation, comfort, and lack of sound leaking. Currently, my two main headphones are the Denon D7000 and the Audeze LCD-2. I'm looking for a CIEM that...
