its live

LCD-X - 699$

LCD 2 classic : 495$

are these better than hifiman HE6se v2 at 509$ ?

[–] zetiano@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I think they're considered around the same level but with the caveat that the HE6SE V2 needs a capable amp to drive it. Personally I drive mine to more than loud enough levels with a $150 AMP/DAC combo.

I snagged an LCD2C. Thanks for posting OP, merry Christmas to me.

Are there any (non-Maxwell) Audeze headphones that are better for gaming than the Maxwell?

Not for Europe i imagine

Shocked that there was no maxwell, Penrose, or mobius B stock. I guess it fits since they have delisted penrose and mobius from their official page.

Figure the LCD-GX was worth a try for $600, reviews seem quite glowing, so hopefully they'll be nice.

What the fuck happened. I refreshed exactly when the timer hit 0 and the MM-500 were already sold out.

Ugh. Had the LCD 2 closed back in my cart and then took a minute to consider whether it was worth it since I use my LCD 3 so much.

And now it's gone.

I know today isn't the day I buy the LCD-5 but I'm tempted.

Ha, I also had an LCD 2 closed back in my cart, took a minute to reconsider and it was gone, it's probably for the best.

Snagged an LCD X for $699

[–] Zernium@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Thank god there isn't any lcd-4. My wallet would not have survived.

[–] I_pity_the_aprilfool@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Glad to see it was available to North America this time around. Canada has been excluded for many of those in the last couple of years. Got to snag a pair of LCD-X as a first pair of planars. Looking forward to trying them out!

Was anyone from Australia able to order? Looks like they're not shipping here and I really wanted to snag the LCD-i3's :(
