Features

  • The reissue of our vintage original model, with the wonderful warm tonality of the LCD-2 headphone without Fazors. Note: this is slightly warmer sounding than our regular LCD-2.
  • Incredible bass response due to the 100mm Planar Magnetic drivers - our Planar Magnetic drivers have superior impulse response, and make the headphones sound much more realistic.
  • Our exclusive glass-infused nylon rings are rugged and improve the sound quality.
  • Comes with our new steel suspension headband and leather-free memory foam earpads for added comfort. As of June, 2021 it now includes our economy carry case at no additional cost.
  • crafted in California: Every LCD-X headphone is engineered and meticulously handcrafted then rigorously tested and calibrated before leaving our Southern California facility. This ensures your Audeze headphones will sound incredible from the first moment you listen to them, and many years after.

Description

LCD-2 made Audeze a household name among audiophiles when it launched to rave reviews back in 2009. Now, the relaxed, full, spacious sound with our LCD-2 Classic. Still handbuilt in our Southern California workshop, this classic is a headphone worth waiting for. When you first listen to LCD-2 Classic you are struck by the realism of the sound, the combination of effortless weight, clarity, and depth it articulates. The realism washes over you, enveloping you in your favorite music without a care to the outside world. LCD-2 Classic harkens back to the first headphones Audeze sold, with a unique offset magnet array that gives the sound a broad, deep sense of space. The driver tuning lends a tube-like character to the forgiving, yet clear sound signature. We developed special glass-infused nylon rings for LCD-2 Classic to reduce the weight while maintaining the audible character of the original. With its' ventilated suspension headband and thick, soft earpads, LCD-2 Classic floats gently on your head through album after album.

  • Fantastic
Style: Open Back
I bought this about 6 months ago. I have all high end Hifiman and others in my arsenal. I also have all high and dac/amps. Audeze always sounded very good with a few of the most powerful dac/amps I have. But then I bought the new XDUOO XD05T last month. This is a hybrid design incorporating vacuum tubes with the latest technology. It took my Audeze to the wow level. Fantastic now! ... show more

  • Uncomfortable and overpriced, totally not worth the money
Style: Open Back
Where do we start, these feel like wearing shooting ear protection. The ear pads are designed to create a perfect seal to give you the bass but damn, at what cost? Not only do my ears begin to sweat but the experience is awful the entire time. Its so hot and for being open back it gives you the feeling that they are actually not open back at all. Not only that but every used one of these develops cracks in the earpads in less than 6 months because they dont use real leather so you will end up spending more money on replacement pads, at this price seriously? Ok they give you a case but that case is like a $10.00 case at most big woop. For the money there are WAY better headphones out there, I would never buy from this brand again. ... show more

  • Truly, one of the best pairs of headphones I own.
Style: Open Back
Just buy them. They are top notch build. They sound amazing. They come with awesome accessories—it’s a $150 case alone and the cables are worth another $100. And, they’re made in the USA! I own $1,000+ headphones and these are my go-to set. Audeze has actually delivered a warm planar here—almost impossible to do. Only caveat, you will need a good amplifier to get the most out of these. But this is true of most planar headphones. ... show more

  • Built like a tank
Style: Open Back
These headphones simply sound great and are super comfortable. I originally had a different headphone, the Edition XS, but they felt so cheap and the left connector caused crackling sounds so bad that I ended up returning them and saving up for the Audeze pair. Hifiman's QC is absolutely terrible, and I went with Audeze because I want a product that I know will last. ... show more
