you would be 90% there.
That's for EDXS.
This is mine:

I have both the XS and an LCD-X 2021 in case you're interested in my experience. let me knowI'm a bit late to the game I decided to buy the hifiman XS and still waiting for them.
Just out of curiosity does anyone have the audeze isine 20 and compared them to the hifiman XS? Or maybe compared them to other audeze headphones?
Must say I was really impressed by the openness, bass, warmth, details, imaging and soundstage these audeze isine 20 inear's were giving.
I felt when comparing they sound like "the little brothers" of audeze LCD2/LCD3.
I also have been auditioning couple other expensive can's 4 years ago in London,
The only one that I really liked was the Ananda back then, they also sounded like a step up compared to my isine 20's.
So I'm very curious and exciting now if I will Like hifiman XS as I have been reading previous posts it has a simelar sound signature/capabilities like the Ananda's.
The end plastics on the head-band slide down (towards the yokes) and then you can dismantle the thing.does anybody know how to unmount part 2 from part 1
is there any trick to do so?
I'm curious on how you would compare the two. I'm using the XS right now as my main pair of headphones but was wondering if the lcd-x would be a worthwhile upgrade.I have both the XS and an LCD-X 2021 in case you're interested in my experience. let me know
Of course, this whole thing is subjective so take my opinion with a grain of salt. The biggest upgrade if you were to switch to the LCD-X would be build quality, there's no competition, the LCD-X is built like a tank compared to the EXS.I'm curious on how you would compare the two.

I power my XS from the balanced output of ZEN CAN - sweet sound

But personally, I do not think the jump in sound is worth the almost 500-600 cost. I listen to mainly EDM/Electropop/Rap and yes, there is an improvement in the bass region, but it's not in quality exactly, its more in dynamics (slam, punch etc.), and even then, its a planar so it's not going to be the best in that category. But yes, there is an improvement in the bass, I'd call it a 10-15% improvement.
The soundstage is a straight-up downgrade, there is something about the Edition XS that makes it so 'musical', whereas I would describe the LCD-X sound as more 'clinical' or 'reference'. So I imagine genre would make a big impact on your decision.
Also, do not underestimate how heavy the LCD-X can get, you can definitely feel it and I could not imagine using them for longer periods at a time.
I hope I do not come off as an Audeze hater/Hifiman fanboy, it's just that I was in your spot a week ago and was kind of let down by the LCD-X coming from the Edition XS. This isn't an 'LCD-X is bad value', this is an 'Edition XS is insane value' post.
It's a Metal Gear Solid reference, I swear!Nice username
I have not yet, but I am planning to sell them to a friend at a very discounted cost, to get him into the game, ya know?Did you sell the EXS?
