While I like the sound signature of the LCD-2 (fazor version), the thing is way to heavy for gaming. I had mine for 3 years and still cant use it past 45 minutes. (old headband).
I own currently a HD600, a HD800, a LCD-2 and an iSine10.

I use the HD800 or the iSine for gaming. The HD600 for out of home or at a family gathering. I dont use the LCD-2. The discomfort long term is far greater than the improved sound quality for me.
The iSine however dont have this problem and I really like them for gaming.
The HD800 are better but they are fatiguing after 3+ hours (but Im so old i rarely play that long straight anyway).

I am not sure about these new LCDs thou. Max input power is 500mW RMS? That sounds really odd. Low in fact...

@KMann will the MX4 spec for FAZOR = true be updated or is that a typo as well.

It sounds like an LCD2 but without the huge treble roll off that made it super smooth. Bass and midrange is very linear and the most emphasized part of the sound. Upper midrange is soft but not LCD2 soft, and trebvle at 10khz has potency but still not on the bright side.

So if you want what I feel is numbers 0 being neutral (subjective)

GX

1 sub bass
1 bass
1 lower midrange
-1 upper midrange
-1 lower treble
-0.5 upper treble

For me LCD2 Rev 2 (7 or so years ago) was

1 sub bass
1 bass
1 lower midrange
-2 upper midrange
-3 lower treble
-2 upper treble

Yes, my LCD2 memories were from long ago, but I didn't forget that sound, as it was one of my fave headphones

That should give you soooome idea

So does the GX sound more like the 2 Fazor? How does it compare to the Ananda, which you recently reviewed?

That's all I'll say and leave the rest for when I post the review once the GX releases. It's too soon.
