The closed-back Audeze LCD-XC (Music Creator Special)was created to cater to customers' need of receiving all the benefits of the LCD-X while isolating the listener and reducing ambient noise for a private listening experience.
Fazor Technology
Fazors are special acoustical elements positioned on either side of the magnetic structure. They enhance transparency by affecting the sound waves generated by large planar diaphragms. A few of the benefits include extended frequency response, improved high-frequency extension, and lowered distortion, with better imaging.
Unique Magnetic Structure
The LCD-XC (Music Creator Special) has an efficient push-pull magnetic structure that is specially designed and self-closing. This ensures an acoustically transparent music listening experience.
Music Creator Special
The recording industry has been revolutionized because of Audeze. Many of the today’s biggest hits were mixed, mastered and tested with Audeze’s headphones. For the limited period of time, Audeze is offering music creators and enthusiasts the opportunity to experience award-winning sound of the LCD-X. This Creator Package gives you all the sound of LCD-X but does not include the travel case.
Acoustically engineered for accuracy Audeze’s innovative planar magnetic technology delivers clear and accurate sound that reveals everything on the recording.
Engineered to Sonic Perfection
Implementing unique designs and patented technologies, Audeze is widely recognized as the industry leader, offering planar magnetic headphones with unparalleled performance, visual appearance, and comfort in all price categories. They accomplish this by pushing the limits of technology, materials science and engineering, always striving for sonic perfection.
Ultra Thin Diaphragms
Unlike a dynamic driver with a cone or dome attached to a round voice coil, Audeze's flat, thin-film diaphragm has a printed circuit across most of its surface. When the circuit is energized with an audio signal it interacts with magnets that move the diaphragm back and forth, creating sound.
"Best in Class Audio Accuracy "
Audeze headphones’ best-in-class accuracy makes them an irreplaceable tool for those requiring the most transparent audio reproduction available. Besides being first discovered by audiophiles, now professional engineers and music producers are using these headphones as their new reference.
Large Ultra Thin-Film Diaphragms
They use space-age materials in an ultra-thin diaphragm 4X larger than typical headphones for fast response time. Unlike a dynamic driver with a cone or dome attached to a round voice coil, Audeze's flat, thin-film diaphragm has a printed circuit across most of its surface. When the circuit is energized with an audio signal it interacts with magnets that move the diaphragm back and forth, creating a larger than life sound. Further, the Double-sided magnet arrays delivers a uniform driving force across the entire diaphragm.
LOTUS Diaphragm
Most Planar Magnetic speakers use Mylar (PET) diaphragm with aluminum traces. Audeze transducers use new materials that offer substantial improvements for both diaphragm and traces. Audeze's proprietary Lotus diaphragm is capable of handling maximum continuous operating temperatures of over 400° F. This gives the drivers a smooth, resonance-free frequency response, excellent internal damping, edge damping, very low distortion and extremely fast transient response.
"Engineered and handcrafted in our California factory"
The LCD-XC (Music Creator Special) headphone is thoroughly engineered and meticulously hand-built using the finest, most luxurious materials combined with cutting-edge planar magnetic technology. We closely match the transducers, then match the gorgeous equatorial African Bubinga wood earcups. Bubinga is not listed in the CITES Appendices or on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. We match earpads by leather texture and color. Choose real lambskin leather or microsuede headbands. The earpads are filled with carefully chosen acoustical foam. You can pair the LCD-XC (Music Creator Special) with portable devices but it sounds best driven by a quality amplifier like our King Headphone Amplifier for best results.
