LCD-X and XC Update

[godmax]

Love the headphone stand, where did you buy it?

this is a small design project of mine that I am currently working on. I am designing my own headphone stand with an interchangeable headrest. As you might suspect, the picture shows a 3D-printed prototype with the LCD-X on it

It looks like it was made with a 3D printer

correct

Which cable do you use with LCD-X? I'll posit Forza Audio Works Noir Hybrid as a strong recommendation.

Thank you

Has anyone tried different pads with the LCD-X? If so, what brand and what were the results? Thanks!

A most convincing & enjoyable combination :

Audeze LCD-X (2016), FAW Noir Hybrid cable, Liquid Platinum (tubes: 1972 Voskhod 6N23P 'single wire getter post').

Just measured two, at the thickest part 31mm stock leather and 42mm Dekoni.
As Dekoni is already installed with sticky tape I can't take pad off to do side by side picture. Check images below for my best effort to compare two.

Hi Andrew. Just curious. How would you compare the clamping of the headphones with the different pads? I have the fenestrated elites on a 2020 LCD-XC. The clamping seems tight. I bought them this way so I do not know how much less clamp with original pads

Do you find it a hassle to switch amp-DAC combo so often? Maybe I am just lazy
