It will be great to see Aeon Open vs HE 560 vs LCD-2C
Why didn't they go with the triangle connectors? Even the LCD-2.2 eventually got them. They instead went with the original square entry points. I remember cabling was easier with the triangular versions and didn't hit your shoulder.
These will probably eat much of the Monoprice1060+VeganPads & HE560 market
Although I'm no fan of the LCD-4's SQ (where'd the treble go?) for $4000, if the LCD-2C can get somewhat close to their SQ level for $600, then that would be a much better price-to-performance ratio.The LCD2C were a highlight for overall value. To me, they sounded a tad less bass heavy than my LCD2r1s. I spent some time at the table talking with Sankar about them. From what I recall, these are the old LCD2 drivers (non-fazor) with a new and thinner diaphragm. Weight was significantly reduced. I really liked them; even after swapping back and forth with the LCD4s. I was thinking about a new Office set of the isine20s prior to hearing the LCD2Cs and was amazed when Sankar said they would list for $599 as a direct sale item!
This release will directly challenge the MrSpeakers Aeon! So excited hohohohohoho.
Sine = On earSine dx is in the same price range and just got out. .. What's the sense?
