The good thing is they have a 30 day trial if bought directly from Audeze.

i find the isine20 looking amazing and different
if it has great bass, and is not sibilant then i am getting one
if it has great bass, and is not sibilant then i am getting one
I don't want too much bass so its the 10 for me.
I'm quite dumbfounded why do they make it open backed, at the very least make 2 versions of it. I can't listen to this while on the airplane or commuting, the sound might leak and the size is huge by IEM standard.
To clarify, the iSINE 10/20 and LCD i3 are semi-open and there is a level of isolation as that's part of the equation.

Yeah but what do those look like? Wonder if they are even bigger than the other 2 new models/
Same size as the iSINE Series.

I think these are the ear locks:
And this is the ear hook:
Right, EarLocks™ are ideal for an active lifestyle like jogging or cycling. They lock into parts of the outer ear and provide a near perfect fit that keeps the iSINE headphones securely in place. The durable polymer is comfortable against the skin and maintains its shape for long-term use. They’re supplied with silicon and Comply foam tips. Ear Hooks are larger and in a more traditional style locates the iSINE Series headphones with a hook around the outside of your ear.

Not the fist planer IEMs. oBravo erib-2a ($899) was. I heard it last year at RMAF and it sounded pretty good. The AMT version, the EAMT-3a ($2399) was even better.
Right, we checked into this and the oBravo is a hybrid with a planar tweeter and dynamic driver. So we're going to call the iSINEs the first full-range planar magnetic headphones on the planet.

$200
The extra $200 buys you a longer Uniforce(tm) voice-coil on an ultra-thin diaphragm. As the voice-coil covers more surface area it delivers faster response times and better control of the diaphragm.

Mmm......still no pics of the lcd i3. What is it?
They're coming, the LCD i3 photo session ran long.

Not sure, but i applaud them for it.
I appear to be in a rare minority, but i am excited for these (and am agreeable to the looks). Everyone complaining about them being open makes me just roll my eyes; even full size opens don't leak that much sound (i feel this sound leakage worry is so overblown its silly), so i don't expect these to be heard at all. And as others have said, i like the situational awareness allowed by open cans.
The only reason i missed out on the initial batch, is because i am waiting to hear about the one damn thing that matters.. how do they sound..I made the mistake of buying into the hype train (Campfire audio) and am not doing that again....
Thank you, and for the record, they're semi-open and offer a level of isolation. As reviews come out we're sure this will be adequately covered along with descriptions of its sound.

Look a heck of a lot more comfortable, and I think the Audeze design is excellent looking
Thanks, the industrial design was from our strategic partner Designworks, a BMW Group Company, from the same team who did the i8.

So, The LCD i3's? No Pictures of those or more info on those? Its seems those are pretty much a hybrid of the lcd-3f and lcd-4's but with a cipher cable. SO does that mean Audeze will be selling an LCD Series Cipher cable? Thoughts?
The photo session went long, we should have them posted shortly. The LCD i3 uses the same nano-scale diaphragm as the LCD-4, and uses other premium materials. The nano diaphragms take a full two weeks to manufacture. And the i3 also comes with an analog cable and the CIPHER Lightning cable. You can try both and see what you prefer.

I don't know but at that price point and technology I would rather go with a Chord Mojo than depend on the cipher cable and iOS device to provide that much detail. I mean its good. but i don't think its that good, especially if it were. the battery on any iOS device would be sucked dry from pulling so much power to give you that optimal audio performance. jmo
The Chord Mojo is a fine piece with great sound. But we're proud of the work we did on the CIPHER cable and the Audeze app adding DSP and two memory position so your settings travel with the cable. In our view the 24-bit quality of the cable's DAC and DSP working together make surprisingly great sound. In our humble opinion
