Best praise vs top criticism for Audeze LCD-X
Best Praise
+40 pts“The dumbass Mod bot is auto deleting the post with full details. Been using the Edition XS for the last few months and fit and comfort aren’t that good and it was creating pressure point and I was afraid of gamer skull. After quite a few considerations and suggestions, decided to get the LCD-X and they are great so far. Paired with the warm sounding DAP, they are very pleasing to listen to. The XS were a bit sharp and harsh on some music.”

+32 pts“Bad cables, custom proprietary connectors, and poor weight distribution make up 90% of my “live with it daily” frustrations. What does the sound quality of the Audeze LCD-X matter if my head starts hurting after 1-2 hours of wearing them? I also hate it when some manufacturers cut corners on stuff like the headband, or ear cup material, so it’ll start to flake after a few months (Bose: I’m looking at you.)”
