Audeze

collapse expand iconDescription

The beautifully handcrafted LCD-2, the planar magnetic headphone that put Audeze on the high-end map, delivers audiophile quality, low-distortion sound that articulates the power and nuance of your favorite music. The LCD-2 is the most forgiving of poor recordings in the LCD Collection with a beautiful, musically rich presentation that communicates the warmth, power and glory of music.

Audeze’s innovative planar magnetic technology delivers an astonishingly lifelike sound. Thinner than a human hair, the space-age materials used to construct Audeze diaphragms achieve a near weightlessness that’s four times larger than typical headphones for fast response times, dramatically reduced distortion, higher resolution and improved imaging.

Double-sided magnet arrays deliver a uniform driving force across the entire diaphragm for near zero distortion. Patented Fazor Elements guide internal headphone soundwaves to avoid resonance producing a more accurate waveform.

Engineered and handcrafted in the USA
The LCD-2 is thoroughly engineered for long-term comfort and beautiful sound. Audeze closely matches the planar transducers, and match the beautiful factory-made wood rings by grain and color. They also match the earpads by leather texture and color. Lambskin leather headbands and earcups that are filled with foam carefully selected for best sound and contribute to the level of comfort during long listening sessions.
