Hm, isn't the LCD-X quite a bit heavier though?

as Amazon said it's 1.32 lbs/598 gram.

From Audeze:

LCD-3: 629g
LCD-X: 630g
LCD-XC: 680g
LCD-MX4: 555g
LCD-4: 695g

I don't find the X to be too heavy, you get used to it. It's very comfy for hours at a time.

I have a 2017 creators edition, I bought a carbon headband and like it very much.

Looking goooood ...

And what cable is that ? Does it make different in sound signature ?

 

[the finisher]

It's a Norne Solvine balanced, yes I find it more resolving vs the stock cable.
I would definitely not say it changes the sound signature, rather it enhances it.

I wouldn't buy a cable for a tone control, it is simply a very resolving, neutral cable, though not cheap.
It also looks great and has a nice feel, it's very supple for a cable of it's girth

A quite reasonable price. If I didn't already have a great cable, I might look into it.

Thanks, where did you get those numbers?
It's quite hilarious how they advertise the LCD-4z as "improved weight" and then not add the weight in the specifications list.
I'm still looking for the weight on that one :')

 

[commtrd]

I don't care how much 4z weighs (although I suspect it weighs less than X) the headphone sounds so spectacular, both are comfortable with the suspension headbands.

It'd be nice if they don't fall off your head when you look down though. But yes, sound

 

[the finisher]

I am just kicked back when I listen, I find it funny those who complain of the LCDs weight.

They are not mobile headphones, and you can't have this performance without substantial magnets thus some weight.

I kinda like it, it's like wearing a sonic helmet

When I have people try these out I like to illustrate that point. Instead of saying, "put these on," I say, "put your head into these."

Another fun fact: When you are wearing the LCDs, you can still see them.
