I'll caveat by saying I'm completely new to the hifi headphone world...but after lots of research I decided to pick up a pair of Audeze LCD-4's hearing the rave reviews everywhere. Got them last night and they sound horrible. I'm assuming I'm either doing something wrong or there's something wrong with them. I've tried different cables (an upgraded XLR cable and the 6.5mm included cable).
I've tried listening through a Burson DAC/Amp as well as an Anthem MRX1140. Both sound equally awful. I'm not getting any bass response and the music that is coming through sounds flat. It's as if these were $9.99 from a local pharmacy.
What am I missing?
