Thanks! We'll with the current components that are according to a friend "the best" amp at a reasonable cost for the HD650 (but not exactly optimal for LCD-2, have a couple of tubes coming in that will make the LA339 better with the LCD-2)...
The LCD-2 are bassier both quantity and qualitative (which was my prime interest). Midranges are much clearer, more transparent. And treble has more sparkle. But I'm not really a treble guy so it's hard for me to assess. The soundstage is wider, higher and more "in your face". Big difference? Yes. Worth 2,5x the money? For me absolutely. But when it comes to hi-fi and camera lenses the 10-rule starts to apply after a while. 10 times more expensive, 10% better.
Will I get the LCD-3's? Probably in a couple of years... I'm more than satisfied with the LCD-2's. Highly recommend finding a second hand-pair if one has the cash to spend. But
Great looking rig! How would you compare the HD650's and the LCD-2's?
