What genres are we feeling LCD2Cs are performing best with right now?

Just ordered the LCD2C. How is the efficiency guys? Is it still a hungry beast, so not really workable on anything but a muscle amp. I have the Metrum Aurix incoming which does about 3.5v into 70 ohms, 6v into 600 ohms. I think the 2C is still 70ohms?

I almost went for another HP due to efficiency. Anyway, hope it works out.

Slower paced songs with limited band instruments (e.g. one vocalist one acoustic guitar).

I think the lcd2c might be a technically better headphone with non fazor sound Sig ? But im assuming things i prefer the lcd2c to the lcd2f

Technically probably no becaus they both use the exact same drivers, and the fazors do focus the sound more, but you may well prefer the sound sig of the C.

Yep, anything more than one instrument and the left driver shorts out. /sarcasm

Lol wut

lol people are so sensitive about their headphones. You'd think someone insulted their newborn.

I know you wanna justify your purchase, but at least try to be objective and take criticism.

(not speaking to anyone in particular)

Maybe it depends on what you are playing them out of, but I think limiting them to acoustic troubadours is doing them a major disservice! For me they are great all rounders, a sort of uber-HD650 if you will. Relaxed but not boring, no fatigue

Can I ask, what is the sound quality drop from the current LCD-2 and the current LCD Classic? Why is it cheaper?

Equal slam, hard treble, lush mids, equal blob.

 

[TokenGesture]

"hard treble"? Really?

 

[paradoxper]

Absolutely. Compared to the Stax SR-007/009 Code-X, HD800 (my personal references) the top end sounds constrained and it comes off as being piercing in nature.

But he was asking about LCD-2C vs LCD-2F

 

[TokenGesture]

Constrained I can understand (I would say there is certainly less emphasis) but piercing? That I'm genuinely surprised about, I don't hear it at all. I do on the HD800 though
