By popular demand, Audeze proudly announces the newest addition to our critically-acclaimed LCD series.
Building on the classic sound of the LCD-2, this closed-backed headphone offers the pure, authentic listening experience of our planar magnetic headphone but with increased isolation and greatly reduced ambient noise. The LCD-2 Closed-Back produces a private, powerful, and immersive experience. It’s just you and your music!
Audeze started in 2008 in a garage (of course!) when its founders came across a revolutionary flexible circuit material developed for NASA. Realizing this could be a great advance in planar magnetic technology, they first started to make pro audio PA speakers, but dropped this project and started making headphones – the LCD-1.
Taking this first headphone to the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest, it was a tremendous hit, and that success launched the company. Hanging on that garage wall was the 2001 Space Odyssey poster, and that inspired the company’s name. The founders wanted a name that had something to do with a “journey through audio,” so Odyssey would be perfect, and that’s how the name Audeze (pronounced “odyssey”) was born.
Acoustically engineered for accuracy
Audeze’s innovative planar magnetic technology delivers clear and accurate sound that reveals everything on the recording.
Diaphragms thinner than a human hair
We use space-age materials in an ultra thin diaphragm four times larger than typical headphones for fast response times, dramatically reduced distortion, higher resolution and improved imaging.
Near zero distortion
Double-sided magnet arrays delivers a uniform driving force across the entire diaphragm for near zero distortion.
Boasting a sleek, modern design, superb dynamics, and ultra-low distortion, the LCD-2 Closed-Back delivers a rich and hugely satisfying sound.
The new LCD-2 Closed-Back headphone comes with a lightweight suspension headband, special crystal-infused nylon rings, and contoured memory foam earpads for enhanced comfort.
It’s deep and controlled bass is intensely powerful, yet amazingly accurate and delicate when needed.
