I been spending a lot of time with the GX recently, and it's such a shame it's overlooked. If Audeze sold them as a regular headphone, I think it may have garnered more attention from regular audiophiles. But they were targeting a different crowd, or at least one with overlap.
It:
1. Lightest big body LCD with looks similar to the MX4
2. Far, FAR better than just a 'gaming' headset Just as I said long before working for Audeze.
3. I think in some aspects, its just as good as other LCDs.
Like you, I prefer cloth/suede pads. I'd have gotten the Dekoni suedes long ago, but that massive reduction at 10khz, scares me.
