The Audeze LCD-5 Flagship Headphone is a newly designed headphone which sets a new standard for performance and comfort.

These headphones feature a new planar driver and magnetic structure to extend the frequency response of the headphones, potentially improving audio performance. The LCD-5 is claimed to be approximately one-third lighter than its predecessor, the LCD-4, making it more comfortable for extended listening sessions. Also, newly designed earpads, which aim to improve the upper midrange response, potentially enhancing the clarity and detail of the audio.

These headphones incorporate materials such as magnesium, acetate, and carbon-fiber in its construction, potentially improving durability and minimizing unwanted resonances.

The drivers of the LCD-5 incorporate Audeze’s award-winning Fluxor magnets and updated Fazor waveguides. These technologies aim to improve the magnetic field and sound wave guidance, potentially enhancing the overall audio performance.

The LCD-5 make use of a new voice coil design called Parallel Uniforce™. These voice coils utilize parallel traces of varying width to keep the impedance low and increase voltage headroom. By optimizing the current density within each trace, this design aims to provide a more uniform force, reduce distortion, and improve control over diaphragm movement.

Overall, the clarity and comfort of the Audeze LCD-5 Flagship Headphone make a great match for every professional music engineer or Hi-Fi music enthusiast.
