In all seriousness, though, I am searching for an upgrade from my DT 990s (290 grams) and have heard fantastic things about the LCD-2 classic line. However, I have also heard horror stories and discourse amongst the forums from people who are not big fans of the weight.

What are some of your experiences with Audeze headphones, specifically regarding the weight? Does the adjustability and comfort make it less significant an issue than some people describe?

I also encourage those with 500+ gram headphones to say their thoughts.

They are super heavy at first. Ensure the strap and yokes are perfectly adjusted to your head and the weight will disappear. I have a super small head apparently and the smallest adjustment on the yoke is not enough and the strap is too long so it touches the metal band out of the box for me. Not as problem as you can shorten the strap which fixes the issue. It's been around 2 weeks now since I bought the LCD-X and I would like them to be lighter but the weight is no longer an issue and I can wear them all day without worry. I use them for music and gaming.
