(as of – Details)

This is the latest advancement of our famous LCD-XC (effective March 2021). Many say the LCD-XC is the most neutral of any closed-back headphone; and it certainly has the widest soundstage. They’re used by sound engineers and musicians to create the most accurate recordings. Just Google Manny Marroquin, Stuart Hawkes, Frank Filipetti, Ed Cherney, George Massenburg, Elliot Scheiner, or Brent Burge for a few examples of our Audeze users. They do a great job of translating your mix to the real world. The XC and its brother, the open-back X, are sensitive enough to be driven directly by portable players like iPods, iPhones, and some of the better smartphones, but you’ll enjoy much better sound with an external amplifier. Its impedance is 20 ohms.
NOTE: This is the latest version of this model, the LCD-XC effective March, 2021, and replaces he previous model, ASIN: B08J2SCXBM
