It's subjective up to a point. Subtle aspects can be subjective, but my point is that this isn't subtle. The difference between the sound of acoustic instruments on the LCD-2 and all other top headphones that I have (T1, HD800, HE-6, SR-007, ATH-W5000) is so significant to me that I would expect pretty much anyone with normal hearing who pays attention to detail to hear it. The LCD-2 gloss over the details of the rich texture of the sound of these instruments. It's very evident with brass instruments and violin, but also noticeable with pretty much all acoustic instruments. A few people seem to share this impression (including Tyll who generally likes the LCD-2 and seems to think that his latest one doesn't suffer from this problem), but I'm amazed when people report that the LCD-2 are fine in that area.
I'd love to hear the Anedio some day, and thanks for offering that, but I already have way too much equipment lying around, and no shortage of DACs.
You wouldn't have an Apex Peak/Volcano hanging around for sale would you?
