Audeze LCD-2 Impressions Thread

  Hey guys, first post so if I sound like a complete noob I apologize.
 
Real quick about me. Coming from Bose IE2 and Bose QC15.
 
Currently the LCD-2 is a dream headphone of mine, and found one on Amazon used for $699. Is that a good deal, as I know they go for about a grand new? Would that raise any red flags for you?
 
Thanks for the feedback.

Don’t forget to check the headphones for sale right here.

"There’s no real difference between a Mjolnir with LISST and the original Mjolnir (well, except for all the new features). Same topology…now with higher voltage rails for even better performance." - Schiit.
 
Setup one if you are going to use Tubes, 2 if SS. Just IMHO - haven't heard any of the gear.

Oh i see, so the main difference is the new features and tubes. I'll think I'll save 300 bucks by going Solid State than. With the same Topology I think it make more sense for me. I heard good things about the Yggy and that it plays a very big part of the setup. I'm trying to get the best out of the LCD-2. This is my end-game setup and after this i won't see you guys for another 3-5 years lol, (i'll be chillin in my cave hearing tunes).... until upgradetitus grows on me. hehe Cheers!

  Thanks for the links. I'd peaked through the Head-fi forums, but not the others. Gracias!

Hi mikeyb
Here's pair w/fazor at $750 Canadian...$570US...maybe he's willing to ship to the US...I'm almost tempted myself but I've only had my non fazors for 2weeks.

"Hello there ! Looking to sell this pair of Audeze LCD-2 with the Fazor technology which is in mint condition. Bought it in the beginning of June and didn't use it that much. Around 20 hours of use maximum."
Looks like he has excellent feedback.

ya I was looking at that. but was wondering what's the status now that there so many faulty drivers

Really? How many faulty LCD-2's are there?
 
As with anything, the ones that are working fine never get mentioned, only the faulty ones. So, take the negative posts with some salt, unless one has numbers (stats) to back up a high fail rate.
