If you like brighter sound, go for the HE6. That thing has a high to die for, the best I've heard yet in headphones so far. If you like it darker, go for the LCD2. 
 
Different stroke for different people.

How many LCD-2 owners are planning on getting the HE-6?
 
I am trying to make my mind up... lots of conflicting impressions, but then again there always are.
 
The soundstage ones really boggle mind though... either "bigger than HD 800" or "unremarkable" lol...
 
The LCD-2 being my first planar, I am much more excited about this new planer than the new dynamics. Call me a convert .

I haven't noticed anyone say bigger than HD800, that would be ridiculous. Some of the most recent comments said soundstage was not as big as HD800, but equal or slightly bigger than HD600, which should put it somewhere near LCD-2 range.

Here's a new review that directly compares the HE-6, LCD-2, and HD800:

Hello:
 
I'm new as of a couple of days ago.
 
I know I'm in the wrong thread for this question, but I need direction.  I sent a pm yesterday and could not because it said that I had sent my allotment for the day.  But now it is the next day and it still says the same.  I cannot send my pm.  Can someone tell me if there is an administrator to this site.
 
Thanks,
 
Chuck

Not that important, but it would seem someone is in love http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews/audeze/3.html .  Also it includes a comparison of the fit / weight distribution / construction with the PS1000 which seems timely.

Nice write up and apparently he likes them more than the other contenders. Good to see some more publicity for Alex and Sankar.

They didn't say anything about the sound in that review.  Still good publicity for Audeze, but I don't understand these kinds of reviews that go on and on about build quality and fail to mention anything about it's purpose.  It's not a couch, it's a pair of headphones.

It is not a completed review, it is a preview/beginning of the upcoming review... not that I can claim that the full review will be any better in that regard, but you should at least give him a chance to finish it before passing judgement.

That may have sounded more harsh than I intended.  It was well written and fun to read, I was just left scratching my head a bit...

Ain't audio fun? Hey there goes another fishing boat. Two big Yamaha outboards. They go for tuna and Marlin here.

LOL I find most six moons reviews that way.

i'm pretty sure I read immtbiker say that... or atleast say they were on par... I could be wrong.
