Audeze LCD-4

[Fibre101]

I use Roon on Windows but they also have a Mac application which has the same parametric EQ and sample rate conversions.

I would look into Roon as its really a superior experience and you can link your Tidal or Qobuz account and use those services on Roon.

The only downside to the lcd 4 is the stock tuning unfortunately. Once it is eqed well and upgraded to the new 2021 pads, it really is an enjoyable listen.

I'm on a Mac ecosystem at home and I can't EQ on a Mac. At least not that I've seen. I did enjoy them from the HA-3A but they were very dark. Darker than the Rosson RAD-0.

I use SoundSource with ProQ3.

Where can I buy these 2021 pads?

But I would prefer real leather pads.

Or these one the right ones:

Still pissed I sold these in the 'Audeze hasn't discontinued them' delusional phase of realizing yes, they did.... lol

15 minutes after my first head-fi post in 6 months and I have already inquired with a familiar dealer to require them....

Here we go again

I will never sell the my LCD 4, I already made a mistake selling the Hifiman HE6 V1 4 screw and you can never find that headphone on the market anymore....

Didn't like some of the ZMF hps that I've tried in the past, guess that has caused me to become a bit biased towards ZMF. Too shouty / forward.

Same, I have not been a fan of any of them so far. It is a shame because I want to support the local headphone business. lol
That being said, the one ZMF I blind bought were absolutely gorgeous.

I'm not good at identifying ZMF headphones - is that a Caldera? Bought my LCD-4 blind after owning the LCD-2. What do you think of it so far? They are beautiful hps, no doubt.

Looks like the ZMF Verite Closed

Also using both these at the moment. Sound source is handy.

Roon on Mac works great. I use it and the Reveal EQ settings included with my LCD4 and CRBN.

It is a Verite, closed version. I was just disappointed in the staging and detail retrieval. It was not really my thing. I sold them only a month after buying, long gone now.
