Advanced planar technology redefined
In 2009, Audeze’s original LCD-2 headphones stunned the industry with their revolutionary planar magnetic design, yielding the clear, natural, spacious sound that immediately became the company’s calling card. The frequency response of the LCD-2 Classic’s planar magnetic transducers is simply spellbinding, stretching from a thundering 10Hz all the way to a stratospheric 50kHz. It yields a warm, fine-tuned tonality with deep, punchy low-end performance and a lightning-quick transient response. Even the most discerning listeners here at Sweetwater are blown away by the prismatic sonic details of the LCD-2 Classic’s Fazor-free design, eliciting crystalline transparency and supremely nuanced soundstages.
