Is there any info about how much they weigh? Is it more than a LCD?

Was wondering the same thing, can’t find LCD weight on the Audeze website

One thing that I think hasn't gotten enough attention is that the HEDDphone will be the world's first headphone to use this type of transducer!

There are a couple of other headphones out there with smaller versions of this driver. Certainly this is the first pair I've seen that uses such a large one.

All I've heard in regard to weight was from the John Darko youtube video on the Munich High End show. He seemed to think they were heavy to the point of discomfort, but didn't go into detail.

I've had the Hedd type 07 and now type 05 on my desktop, they are a very musical studio monitor. Not as piercing and fatiguing as many other popular monitors. While still keeping that accurate sound needed for studio work or just listening.

Depending on the weight and end price, this headphone is very interesting if it keeps the sound signature.

Always wanted to hear the ESS Mk1.
There are 3 others I know of currently using them, some in hybrid some solo.

Fascinating to see more popping up I do like the aesthetics on the HEDD.
These HEDD look stunning.
I assume from the link these are not hybrid arrangements.
Thanks for the posts so far.

Besides oBravo what else do we have?

Extremely interesting to be sure. Exciting time to be into headphones for sure. Raal, this, many companies getting into electrostatics etc... Can't wait to hear to see if this is finally the headphone to dethrone the 007 as my #1!

What I meant to say was that this is the first headphone to use this unique full-range AMT which has been designed specifically for use as a headphone driver.
John Darko had some good things to say about their SQ, but also stated that they were quite heavy, but I believe that what he and others heard was a prototype and not the final version.

I only know of the oBravo HAMT-1 and the ESS 422H, both of which are hybrid designs.
I've heard the oBravo and I thought it sounded terrible.

And the price! A promised price of "well below" €2000.

TakeT out of Japan uses a full range piezo-based Heil-type in their H2+, though not portable.

I hope this sounds more cohesive and together than the TakeT. We will just have to wait and see.

Bruh, the SR1A dethrones the 007.

Here is a great impression of the HEEDphone prototype!

When I heard the Sr1a it was more of an 009 tuning, bright, thin, lacking weight. Generally fake and incorrect sounding. One might call it "Hi-Fi" but it's far from correct
