Audeze LCD-XC Overview

Professional engineers and music aficionados looking for detail and transparency without disturbing their neighbors will be thrilled by the leather Audeze LCD-XC Headphones, a pair of high-performance reference planar magnetic headphones designed for professional mixing, mastering, and reference level personal hi-fi listening when connected to a low-powered external headphone amplifier or portable device. The headphones include a 4-pin XLR combo cable with a single-ended 1/4" adapter and a standard LCD travel case.

The headphones are sensitive enough to be driven by portable music players such as a smartphone or tablet. Instead of utilizing traditional dynamic cone drivers, the headphones implement a neodymium planar magnetic transducer design to deliver a frequency response of 10 to 50 kHz with a THD of less than 0.1%, an impedance of 20 ohms, an efficiency of 100 dB per 1 mW, and a total output SPL of over 130 dB when driven by 5 watts. The closed-back earcups are made from anodized aluminum rings with open-cell foam that's covered in lambskin leather. The Audeze LCD-XC are handmade in the USA.

At a Glance

  • 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 an Audeze 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 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 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.

Designed for Comfort

Audeze has improved the LCD-XC over the years, lowering the weight and increasing comfort. It features a suspension headband for even weight distribution, and highly cushioned premium earpads for support. The neutral tuning and low distortion prevent listening fatigue, so those late-night sessions never have to end.
