Audeze LCD-5 Planar Magnetic Headphone (Apos Certified)

Audeze’s latest flagship, ⅓ the weight For the past decade, Audeze’s LCD series has set the standard for planar magnetic headphone performance. Starting with the LCD-2 that ushered in a new era of planar technology in 2009, they then introduced the LCD-3 in 2011 and LCD-4 in 2015. With the LCD-5, everything has been improved--drivers, earpads, frame design--to set a new standard for performance and comfort. Transparency, resolution, and speed The LCD-5 sets a new standard for accuracy. Its drivers are engineered with Audeze’s award-winning Fluxor magnets and updated Fazor waveguides along with their new Patent-pending Parallel Uniforce™ voice coils, which employ varying width parallel traces to keep the impedance low and provide increased voltage headroom by altering the current density within each trace. The uniform force created by this optimization lowers distortion and provides better control over diaphragm movement, resulting in improved sonic resolution. Clarity and imaging Aud
