Audeze LCD-3 High-Performance Headphones

Audeze headphones use state-of-the-art methods of reproducing sound to a stunning level of accuracy, making them an unrivalled medium in achieving the most transparent audio reproduction possible. Adored by the most demanding audiophiles, professional engineers and music producers, the Audeze models act as the ideal reference. 

The company design and manufacturer a multitude of headphone models in each of the three common formats, including in-ear, on-ear and around/over the ear. The over-ear series makes full use of Audeze's intelligent planar technology and sits as the flagship tier of their product range. Primarily for use in private home-listening high fidelity applications and best experienced when paired with appropriate headphone amplifier and source. 

The LCD-3 sits at the height of the company's reference level units as their flagship headphone model and the biggest point of pride. The LCD-3 utilises a longer voice coil than the other models in the series, as well as having the strongest diaphragm, allowing the LCD-3 a driving force that beats the transient response of other models in the series, despite the fact that these models were and are already exceptional in their performance.

The LCD-3 offers the highest possible resolution music experience that Audeze is currently capable of. The patent-pending Audeze-specific Fazor element technology has been used in order to delicately and precisely manage the flow of pure sound within the headphone. This results in improved clarity and focus, as well as a greater frequency extension (both top and bottom ends of the spectrum) with superior 3D holographic imaging. 

The LCD-3 needs to be used in conjunction with an external integrated amplifier or a dedicated headphone amplifier.
