LCD-X is a reference-grade planar magnetic headphone designed for those who demand absolute accuracy—whether in the studio or in a high-end listening system. It’s widely regarded as one of the most versatile models in Audeze’s lineup, trusted by engineers, producers, and audiophiles alike for its ability to reveal exactly what’s in the recording.
Built around Audeze’s advanced planar magnetic drivers with ultra-thin Uniforce™ diaphragms and powerful magnet arrays, the LCD-X delivers exceptional speed, control, and extremely low distortion. Fazor™ waveguides further refine the presentation by improving phase coherence and reducing internal reflections, resulting in greater clarity and precision across the frequency range.
The sound signature is notably neutral and transparent—making it an ideal tool for mixing, mastering, and critical listening. Bass is deep and tightly controlled without exaggeration, the midrange is clear and highly resolving, and the treble extends cleanly with excellent detail. This level of honesty allows you to hear subtle nuances, imperfections, and spatial cues with confidence.
The open-back design enhances this accuracy with a wide, natural soundstage and precise imaging. Instruments are clearly placed within the mix, and layering is easy to discern, making the LCD-X as effective for professional work as it is for immersive music listening.
Despite its studio pedigree, the LCD-X is also one of Audeze’s more efficient planar headphones, allowing it to be driven by a wider range of sources than many competitors—without sacrificing performance.
Crafted with premium materials and engineered for long-term durability, the LCD-X features a robust metal chassis, suspension headband, and plush ear pads. Hand-assembled in California, it reflects Audeze’s commitment to both performance and build quality.
