See I always heard and was told that a beefy amp was required for the lcd’s. That a iphone didnt have enough power or control to handle them. (Or really any double magnet array planar). Shows I still have much to learn.
If someone listens with a small portable device and loves it, isn't into amps or doesn't have space thats fine. Put a couple good watts through them though out of a decent amp and it's next level and they really come to life.
