I have been staying up entirely too late every night listening to these bad boys every since I got them...this would almost be a problem except that I think it's totally and completely worth it

Can't wait for the mjolnir to get here next week

How are you going to use the LCD-3s on the Mj?  It only has XLR outputs.

The f1 also only has balanced output tas well. The LCD-3s come with two cables, a single ended one and a balanced one

Nice! I know the feeling!

I'm glad you're enjoying the LCD-3. Mine are currently with lappy27 for him to compare to his lcd2's and also compare cables.
 
I'm getting anxious to hear his conclusion, especially regarding on how the cables change the sound.
 
I'm thinking the nucleotide isn't a great match, and on top of that the mjolnir is not a good match for the lcd3 with its punchy bass.

Mine just arrived today! Gotta get up in 7 hours but don't expect much sleep between then and now.

They do sound similar to my LCD2s but they're more extended yet also more... subtle? Effortless? I'm reaching for the right word - they present a clearer, bigger image but they also feel more relaxed and natural. Love 'em.

the lcd3 is to the lcd2 what an 8cyclinder is to a 4 cylinder car, imo. the lcd3 gets you to your destination in
a quieter, more clear, effortless and relaxed manner.

i think you're reaching for more detailed

and bigger soundstage...though as ive said, its been quite some time since ive had any time at all with an LCD-2 so who am i to compare the two lol

Another "downside" to these things...i literally cant get any work done when i have them on -_- im trying to work on school work and it just aint happening right now. Why would i be writing this speech outline that's due tomorrow when i could be rocking out with my new LCD-3s?...

Does anyone else have the same problem with the headband though? with not being able to get it to lay flat without putting it almost off the front of your head?

 
You are not alone. I have the same issue with mine. After an hour or so, it fills like my head was in some kind of medieval torture device 

. Just play around with it. I got it loose a bit and have to readjust from time to time. 
Shame for Audeze: great sound, pure comfort design. Should not happen to 2K hp's.

Take some pictures from the sides so we can see if yours are put on correctly.  Doesn't sound normal at all.

Orthos need magnets to move the drivers...and unfortunately magnets ain't light...so its par for the course typically with orthos. The HE-6s are the same; though I find the LCD-3s a bit more comfortable.
 
Don't forget our Macedonian melons are on the larger side too, so that won't help with the clamping force when compared to others.
