Description

Taking the Room out of the Equation

The class-leading resolution and impressively low distortion makes the LCD-X comparable to high end speaker systems, without requiring large, expensive acoustic room treatments. When used with Audeze Reveal+ to create an AI-generated map of your own hearing, the LCD-X puts you inside renowned studios, letting you mix consistently and efficiently from anywhere.

Accuracy, Transparency, and Efficiency

LCD-X leverages patented Audeze technologies, including Ultra-Thin Uniforce™ diaphragms, Fazor waveguides, and powerful neodymium magnets to deliver extremely accurate and detailed sound. The sophisticated planar magnetic drivers achieve a high efficiency with low impedance, such that LCD-X can deliver great sound from nearly any device with a headphone output. Together, these innovations enable audio professionals to efficiently get their mix done right in a variety of settings.

Designed for Comfort

Audeze has improved the LCD-X over the years, lowering the weight and increasing comfort. It features a suspension headband for even weight distribution, and highly-cushioned premium earpads for support. The neutral tuning and low distortion prevent listening fatigue, so those late-night sessions never have to end.
