Audio46's Opinion

The LCD-XC Closed-Back has a somewhat neutral timbre compared to models like the LCD-2 Closed Back, with less bass bump and flatter upper bass response. Still, in classic Audeze fashion, the LCD-XC offers superb depth and clarity in the low end. The mids feel natural and sit a bit forward, with a touch of brightness and shimmer as you move up the frequency range. And, of course, you can expect an incredibly spacious soundstage that the brand is famous for, with instruments soaring way above, behind and in front of the head. The result is a super-vibrant tapestry of sound that leaves you fully engaged in the music for hours. Don’t forget to bathe.

The Audio Professional's Closed-Back Choice

Since Audeze introduced the LCD-XC in 2013, it has become the gold standard closed-back of the professional audio world. Trusted by award winning artists and engineers, the LCD-XC is a blend of transparency and reliability, ideal for any studio or audiophile system where isolation is desired.

  • Extra-large 106mm planar drivers tuned for accuracy, built for precision
  • Closed-back design blocks out external noise and prevents microphone bleed in recordings
  • Highly efficient, easy to drive from any interface, console or device
  • Includes our braided OCC copper 4-pin XLR combo cable with single-ended 1/4" adapter and standard LCD travel case

Taking the Environment out of the Equation

The LCD-XC shares the same drivers and basic construction as the LCD-X, lending it a similar level of detail and transparency. Its closed-back design adds isolation, which lets you to focus as intensely as you need without distraction. When used with Audeze Reveal+ to create an AI-generated map of your own hearing, the LCD-XC puts you inside renowned studios, letting you mix consistently and efficiently from anywhere, regardless of background noise.

Accuracy, Transparency, and Efficiency

LCD-XC 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-XC 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.
