Great impressions.
Thank you,
I asked Audeze what it was all about.
And the answer was relatively simple.
Apart from the fact that the driver is being replaced, they still seem to want to continue there.
However, my enquiry was a few weeks ago.
Answer from Audeze:
The sound signature of the LCD-2 Classic is based on our original 2008 design, so it has no fazors and a slightly warmer tonal balance than the standard LCD-2. Many listeners report to us that they hear less energy in the upper midrange with the Classics, and a more spacious/open soundstage but less specific imaging than the standard 2s.
The main physical differences are the material of the ear pads and headband (leather vs. leather-free), the material of the ring (wood vs. nylon) and the lack of facors on the Classics. As a result, the Classics are about 30-45 g lighter.
As for the Classik itself, I can say that it is quite malleable.
It is always important to have an amplifier that has enough power.
And on tube amps and hybrid amps, I think that's where it should show its strengths than on a solid state.
In my opinion, I always had the feeling that something was always missing on the solid state and that it was also somewhat powerless.
On a tube/hybrid amp, you have much more of a feeling of being immersed in the music, everything seems more centred, more open, more detailed, crisper, more relaxed.
And bass is not lacking either.
I have never had an amplifier where I was not satisfied and the Classic could not perform.
The only thing I had was that it hardly delivered any bass with the stock tubes in the Feliks Euforia.
Which I have now remedied with others.
Oh, about the leather pads, I just take some leather cleaner, clean them, and later rub them with a thimbleful of Elephant wax, let it sit for 24 hours and rub off the excess.
This keeps them supple and well cared for and the leather doesn't dry out.
This is the reason why they become cracked.
Great impressions.
