LCD-X - Open-Back Planar Magnetic Headphone
LCD-X was developed as a precision tool for critical listening and has for more than a decade been a natural reference point in professional studios around the world. With this model, Audeze has created a headphone where neutrality, resolution, and consistency are prioritized without sacrificing musicality or engagement.
LCD-X is aimed at audio professionals, producers, and audiophiles who demand reproduction that is honest, transparent, and completely free of romanticizing. Here, you get a tool that reveals the recording exactly as it is, while also delivering a listening experience that is both physical and convincing.

A PROFESSIONAL REFERENCE POINT
LCD-X is known for its ability to deliver linear and predictable reproduction, making it possible to make precise decisions during mixing and mastering. The soundstage is open and stable with a clear sense of depth and placement, making it easy to evaluate panning, balance, and space.
The midrange is reproduced with great clarity and natural tone, while the treble is precise and well controlled without artificial sharpness. The bass is deep and tight with excellent definition, providing a solid foundation without coloring the overall presentation.
PLANAR MAGNETIC PRECISION IN PRACTICE
The large planar magnetic driver works with an ultra-thin diaphragm that is driven evenly across its entire surface. This results in extremely low distortion and a fast transient response, which is crucial in professional applications. Fazor technology controls how the sound propagates through the magnet system and contributes to a more focused and coherent stereo image.
This combination gives LCD-X an exceptional degree of resolution and stability, even at high sound pressure levels.
OPEN DESIGN WITHOUT THE LIMITATIONS OF THE ROOM
As an open-back headphone, LCD-X eliminates many of the acoustic challenges normally associated with rooms and monitor placement. Music and working audio are presented with a natural airiness and a realistic perspective that is more reminiscent of speaker listening than traditional headphone use.
This makes LCD-X particularly well suited to work in environments where acoustic treatment is either limited or undesirable.
COMFORT FOR LONG SESSIONS
LCD-X has been continuously refined with a focus on ergonomics and comfort. The ventilated headband distributes the weight evenly, and the substantial earpads provide stable support without creating unnecessary pressure. Overall, this makes the headphone well suited to long workdays and late sessions where concentration and comfort are essential.
The solid construction signals professional use, but it feels more balanced on the head than the weight suggests.
SCALES WITH YOUR WORKFLOW TOOLS
With its high efficiency, LCD-X works directly with audio interfaces, consoles, and mobile devices, but reveals its full potential when paired with a quality DAC and headphone amplifier. The headphone clearly responds to improvements in the signal chain and rewards serious setups with increased control and transparency.
This makes LCD-X a long-term choice that remains relevant even as the rest of the system evolves.
A MODERN STUDIO CLASSIC
LCD-X was not created to impress at first glance, but to deliver consistent results over time. It is a headphone you learn to trust and that becomes a fixed reference point in both creative and technical processes.
For those who demand absolute control over the sound while also wanting a musical and physical presentation, LCD-X is an uncompromising and thoroughly realized choice.
