Would you take LCD-4 'out & about' ? 😳

Indoors + comfortable chair + LCD-4 + tube amp + armagnac within easy reach = very good

Outdoors / in-motion + LCD-4 = not so much

Nonsense. A brisk 10 mile jog on a sunny day, LCD-4's on my head, a Red October, Tambaqui, and a diesel generator strapped to my back...bliss.

I would be willing to pay to see that. :) The weight would definitely increase the calories you burn. ;)

I was thinking an arrangement like this but you will need to strap down the amp and DAC.

I think if we're going for maximum absurdity though, sr1a or abyss on a jog take the cake.
I take the sr1a when I want more traction and need the extra downforce.

That's certainly one way to get your strength training in..

..... one need not jog for Abyss AB-1266 to look absurd .....

I recently got a pair of Sylvania tubes and I have been using them as a pre to the Carbon CC amplifier for my estats which gave me incredible results.

I just tried the LCD 4 with these tubes and my goodness, so lush, warm and thicc! Such an incredible listening experience with these tubes and this headphone. I have now decided to keep my LCD 4 and thank goodness nobody bought them!

It's funny because the Sylvania tubes are what made me fall in love with the LCD 4 with my other tube amps but never had Sylvanias for the Phantom.

My LCD4 arrived today. I was testing it on Soul 170HA. Tubes were U52 rectifiers and 5692 RCA redbase. It was utterly amazing. Bass to knock my head off. LCD4 takes EQ like no other headphone i have used. I tried with the 4Z but found it to be pointless. Im actually preferring the LCD4 to the AByss 1266 Phi TC which i never thought i would say. I need a few more days to understand this LOL! LCD4 is an amazing headphone and i have Abyss side by side to AB. I'll come back with my thoughts in a couple of days. What a great night that was.
