Here's my Rev 2 Bamboo..

Rev.1's, mine is modified now (internally) so no clue what a new measurement graph would look like.
 
 

 
Sorry guys you all need to turn your head to look at mine.

Here you go.

Thanks for all the graphs of the newer LCD-2s. I am quite surprised to see how different they are compared to the rev. 2 from primo / ultimo June 2011 - and how alike they are to the rev. 1 (when it comes to the frequency before they dip down coming from the bass region):

Finally ^__^ , after a long journey in head-fi i'll drink from my music holly grail AUDEZE LCD_2, after being disappointed with T1 i'm sure the LCD-2 will make up for it. i'm getting Bamboo version in less than a month, but i'm not sure if it's better than the rosewood version, i'm really confused is there any difference aside form the wood type ?! from what i know the bamboo is more durable, right ?

Can anybody quickly comment how the new black pads are relative to the vegan pads (which I tried) Same? Softer? Harder?

I've read that they're softer and more comfortable.  Here's a link to the thread (with installation and review) http://www.head-fi.org/t/586157/audeze-lcd-2-vegan-earpads-feedback-installation-mini-review/45#post_8457388

Looking closely at these graphs the only repeatedly relevant divergence I can see is that the LCD-3 and Rev2 don't start to roll off till 1.5khz, whereas the Rev1 starts at 1khz. It's minor, but being fair in the midrange is likely to be very audible depending on music selection and listener expectations, which might explain why some claim Rev1s and 2 are worlds apart and others hear little difference. As for the superiority of the LCD-3, that obviously lies in other realms like distortion, damping and driver radiation pattern, but with my budget it's never likely to trouble me much anyway.

See this Rev 2.

Too much variation

Should look at the HD800 graph thread some time... just as variable

 

[killmurer]

Hmm I see both rev 1 and 2 start their roll offs at around 1 khz. Only rev 1s roll of is steeper.

Oh I'm not having a go at Audeze. There are far worse manufacturers out there (outside Senn and Audeze). I just want to buy the Rev 2 and not the LCD-3 and when I feel 'comfortable' about the purchase, something gives me doubt again.

I should just man up and bite the bullet.

 

[Solude]

Well you sold the Rev1 twice so... you almost need to buy the LCD-3 to really distance yourself from the Rev1 sig.
