So, these look cool and all, but sadly I'm priced out of this headphone market.
I've thrown more money into this hobby than I ever thought I would and while I've loved it, as some previous poster noted on a page or two back, "this feels like an arms race". What was really great for me about this niche industry was the variety and affordability comparatively to full range speaker setups.
I hope these are great and more power to them if the industry can keep selling the increased prices. Unfortunately I cannot keep up and am priced out of the high end.
Also to the person saying the price increases will keep coming across the industry....possibly, but I feel like we're reaching a peak now or soon. I mean aren't some of the main reasons people use hi-fi geared headphone setups in these price ranges because they either don't have room for a full-range speaker setup or can't bother/wake people late-night? Once you're into these prices I think people just move to speakers...
It's the surface area that's an issue for me with the bumps just like everyone else. I hope (for others peoples sake) they make one for all models.
mmm.......love the new Audeze 30 day, no risk, no penalty program for their products. That speaks volumes about their confidence level (in the quality and performance of their headphones). Good job, Audeze, for raising the bar in customer satisfaction. No need for tours or loaners. I hope this applies to their international customers as well. Kudos!
Many people have thought we reached the price peak with each successive generation of flagship headphones. As long as they sell, we haven't gotten there.
They're up on Audeze website now:

Also see the impressions thread (not that anyone has them yet): http://www.head-fi.org/t/782512/audeze-lcd-4-discussion-impressions
I wonder if we will be able to buy b-stock returned ones?
I imagine a lot of people may have buyer's remorse in spending that much money and end up returning.
No. Which is quite pathetic. Audeze should also include their best cables with their flagship at this price.No more balanced cable in the box?
