wow, that's expensive. Is that a premium because it's discontinued?

If you want a pre fazor. Which model to buy. Isnt there about 3 revisions
Something close to this serial number would be best. Look at that frequency response curve! I think I'm in love.
Well, mine with Fazor looks almost the same (except <30Hz rolloff, which doesn't matter anyway). What gives?
Nothing gives. The one I linked just has the prettiest looking frequency response.
Are you comparing to the measurements you got from Audeze? You really need to compare between measurements with the same setup, Audeze uses too much smoothing for a fair one. In this case Tyll's Fazor measurement shows more significant changes, especially above 3 kHz (upper midrange and treble). Note the peak at 9-10 kHz.
I had a chance to here LCD 2.1, 2.2 (Dec 2013) and 2.2F on the weekend and I would actually choose the 2.2F for the best sound out of the bunch, possibly followed by the 2.1 and then 2.2. They're all brilliant and I'd be completely happy with any of the 3 (the 2.2 is mine), but the Fazor improvement is excellent and the smoothness of the 2.1 is also quite magical. Of course the 2.2 sits nicely in between so as I said, I'm still happy.

They should be the 2.2 with Fazor, do you feel/see ridges behind the mesh inside the cups where your ears are? That's the best way to confirm if you have the Fazor.
