Would you guys say a Mojo or DX200 would be enough to drive a LCD 3?

I use my lcd3 with a desktop amp, woo wa22. However, I recently had the chance to listen to the lcd3/mojo combo. I was very surprised how this little monster amp could do. I think the mojo can drive the lcd3 quite well. Does the mojo sound as good as the woo wa22, no it doesn't, and it shouldn't. The are 2 different amps and the price bracket is huge. But again, the mojo/lcd3 combo is very, very good. Perhaps you can start with the mojo and in a couple of years from now, add a proper desktop rig.
In generaI run my LCD-3s with Asgard 2 and Gumby and they sound magical. I also run them with Mojo through my iPhone when I do not want to be tethered as much. They sound excellent with Mojo. 80% as good as with Asgard and Gumby.

the carbon fiber headband may help, or cheper, some extra padding. I used some seat belt padding for kids (with velcro) for a while, but since I installed the cf headband I never felt the need to improve the comfort. They won't become any lighter though (but a few grams), only the weight it's better distributed.
The hole is standard on the lcd line (I had lcd2, 3 and xc),and it's quite wide, if your ear can't fit in, I'm afraid there is little you can do (the hd800 are way wider you could try those)
About the fazor, I had the same problem, I contacted Audeze, they sent me for free some extra cut outs of padding to put internally under the earpads, it takes 5 minutes to do, no tools or glue involved, and it works.
I am using the Hifiman Edition X v2 and my ears fit so well in these

Was doing A\B in the shop and took this pic. It's really interesting to hear the differences between the whole LCD line.... trying to get my brain acquainted enough to help with questions. Beautiful wood

Yes. There is no dissagreance there ha. I do have to say that I have a pair of cans that are of similar weight and got used to it. BUT for some people the Audeze sound isn't worth the weight. Sad thing

Owl City's "Fireflies" is really satisfying on the LCD 3. Don't judge me... ha

I used to have the he500 and I always felt they were heavy and uncomfortable. I never got used their weight. However, since I got the lcd3, I got used to them right away. Well it took me a few days maybe, but no problems after that.
I think it's more of a 1 headphone thing. If you own just 1 headphone then LCD is not worth it considering you'll be using it for movies, games etc
