The Audeze LCD-X is characterized by a natural sound with flawless highs, mids, and lows. Every detail of the music is reproduced clearly and distinctly, and can be precisely located in space. The Audeze LCD-X plays everything across all frequencies exactly as it is on the recording. Therefore, the LCD-X is suitable for a relaxed, yet never boring listening experience, as its natural, vibrant sound never tires you out even during hours of listening. The driver of the LCD-X has been specifically designed to harmonize with a variety of playback devices: it is suitable for use with home stereo systems or in the studio, as well as with portable players. The volume is also powerful enough without a headphone amplifier. However, the LCD-X truly reveals its full potential when paired with an appropriate amplifier. The ear cups of the LCD-X are made from polished, anodized aluminum with angled ear pads made of the finest lamb leather. They are padded with specially manufactured foam, providing the right firmness and acoustic balance. The lightweight, airy headband made of steel and leather makes wearing the LCD-X comfortable even during long listening sessions. Included in the package are a transport case and an unbalanced headphone cable with a 6.3 mm jack.
