New Head-Fier
Hello everyone, I'm considering to step up to high-end game with headphones. currently I have Audioquest NigthOwls and I want to try something different and LCD-X are tempting me the most. There is no way I can audition these in my area so it make things a bit complicated as I've never heard them. I assume there would be a big difference in sound (closed dynamics vs open planars). But what really concerns me is peaky treble and harshness. This is why I stopped using ath-msr7. Every review claimed they sound like 500$ headphone, which can be true in some areas, but I could not get over these ear piercing highs. NightOwls solved the problem. Everyone who tried them knows that they have quite unique, dark engaging sound. But now I want to step up again, so I just wanted to ask you guys, does anyone find LCD-X too bright or harsh ? I also heard that from this level of HP (1000$-2000$) these are actually not in the bright side of spectrum ,but still, if I cant audition them, I want to hear as many opinions as possible. Thanks for anyone who can share opinion
