LCD-2

Had the 2015 LCD-2F before moving to the LCD-3 Fazor, which they find way better.

Owned the LCD-2F but sold it because they were missing the highs.

Their new LCD-2 is smooth, huge and heavy with strong clamp; bass is very nice and instrument separation is better than any of their other headphones.

Uses the LCD-2 for most of their electronic and experimental music; has also owned the LCD-2 Classic and finds them very similar, with the LCD-2 having slightly better treble.

After six months with their LCD-2s, a tube amp made the highs smoother and the bass tighter; they can wear them 2+ hours without discomfort.

Listened to their LCD-2 for two months on a Dragonfly Cobalt, then cried the first time they heard it on a Topping D90/A90 stack.

Their LCD-2 sounds better than anything they have heard, even plugged into a laptop.

Coming from Grado RS2e, finds their LCD-2 with a Woo WA6 more enjoyable and comfortable, with comfy pads.

Selling their LCD-2 because it is too heavy for their neck over 8+ hour days, even though their HD 6XX sounded flat and dead in comparison.

Bought a used LCD-2 and loves the detailed sound, a big step above their HD 6XX, but it is so hot and heavy they need to take it off by the end of an album.

Bought a used LCD-2 pre-Fazor, swapped the dissolving pads for Dekoni Hybrids, and is in love, saying they may have reached endgame.

Their LCD-2 on a Woo WA6 is their daily driver and they love it for quiet listening, but open backs leak too much for a noisy home.

Bought the LCD-2.2 as their first planar, found it like nothing else in their collection, and later regretted selling it.

Has no problem with the weight of their LCD-2F; the pads are comfortable and work with glasses.

Has owned the LCD-2 for many years and loves the sound, but the clamping force makes it uncomfortable for long sessions.

Still owns an LCD-2 that was upgraded to Fazor drivers after a driver failure, but feels many newer headphones easily outperform it for the money.

Their LCD-2 Fazor sounds completely muffled by today's standards.

Owned the LCD-2 Rev1 and thought its treble was horrendously recessed.

Owns the LCD-2 and Arya Organic; prefers the Audeze sound but reaches for the Arya more because of the LCD-2's comfort issues.

Owns the LCD-2 pre-Fazor and has not found anything that sounds like it.

Owns the LCD-2F (shedua) and loves how it looks, but for classical finds it sounds bad without EQ and prefers their HD 800 S.

Loved their LCD-2 rev 1 with precise, amazing bass, but it lacked the quantity to engage with bass-oriented music.

Their LCD-2 is their favourite headphone by far for how it presents music, and they feel no need to upgrade.

Sold their LCD-2 because they used it too rarely but misses it and has yet to find a headphone as enjoyable to listen to.

Was lukewarm on their LCD-2 until trying the Roon EQ preset with a balanced cable, after which it became god-tier.

Thinks the LCD-2 is great but after some time with it would not buy it again.

Loves their LCD-2.2 on its original pads and thinks it is the better headphone overall compared with the LCD-2 Closed.

Owned the Audeze LCD-2 but couldn't wear it for more than an hour without their head and neck hurting.

The wood around an XLR connector on their pre-Fazor LCD-2 Rev 1 has started to crack.

Their original wood-connector LCD-2 cracked there; wood glue fixed it.

Uses their old pre-Fazor LCD-2 occasionally; the vocals really are incredible with no EQ.

Says the build quality on their LCD-2 is insane.

After 100+ headphones, the LCD-2 is their favourite under $1k: decently wide soundstage and some of the best instrument separation they own; they add a little sub-bass via EQ.

The LCD-2's weight hurt their neck; never had issues with their HD 600 or HD 660S2.

The LCD-2 is what they thought the HD 650 should sound like; every time they sell an LCD and try something else, they end up buying another.
