Is the LCD-5 better in every aspect (except maybe price-value ratio) than LCD-X for EDM ,electro ,instrumental etc?

I think most peoples favorite will be the LCD-X tbh. Sure the LCD-5 is a better headphone, but I don't think most people can justify the price difference. The LCD-X is an incredible headphone when EQ'ed. I really don't think you should buy it without EQ'ing.

They came out with a newer version, I think in 2021 that does better without EQ. I haven't tried it to compare it.

The pre-2021 without EQ are unlistenable. With EQ, they're fantastic and probably the best at the price range IMO.
