How did you find these? They’re not listed on Amazon at all.

The LCD-X are better out of the box but they’re basically the same as the 2.
The LCD 2 Classic are $800. The LCD 2 are $1k.
Well if you have the budget for them, Audeze LCD-2’s/2 Classic and some EQ can do some awesome sub-bass.
ZMF and Fostex are solid. Otherwise it’s IEMs
Nothing. Black Friday sales are generally a scam.
Also, it’s still Thanksgiving. Calm down.
You know what can make them better? Setting them down for a few days or a week and listening in something else (like the AirPods, if you still have them).
Sounds like your wallet convinced you there’s an audible difference
More powerful amp? Yes. Once I bought a proper amplifier so noticed they were driven much better, especially with EQ. But I haven’t noticed much more out of them than my Schiit Heretic/Modi stack does.
Haven’t tried too many pairs of headphones but the Focal Clear MG fit me like they were made for my head.
