Audio46's Opinion
The Audeze LCD-3 offers a luxurious sonic experience that sounds undeniably Audeze. In fact, it's one of their best-selling models to date. The low-end is full and detailed, although not overly deep, providing a relaxed impression with a tasteful amount of bass impact. The mids are warm, yet incredibly accurate, while the highs shine with detail, especially when listening to acoustic instruments like strings and brass. But the real highlight is the impressive soundstage, offering tons of depth and precision. (Listening to classical music, it literally feels like you're sitting in the middle of a concert hall.) The sound signature might not be for everyone, as the profile excels most with respect to classical and jazz music. Nonetheless, for those who appreciate the LCD-3's unique qualities, the experience will be nothing short of amazing, regardless of the type of music you're listening to.
