AUDEZE LCD-3

The Audeze LCD-3 delivers expansive, detailed sound, deep bass, and natural mids. Handcrafted with zebrawood rings and premium earcups, they ensure exceptional comfort and superior audio performance.

A new benchmark

Since its introduction in 2011, the Audeze LCD-3 has set a benchmark in the high-fidelity audio industry. This model is the result of meticulous attention to detail and constant technological development, which has led to the creation of a headphone capable of offering an immersive and uncompromising listening experience.

At the heart of the Audeze LCD-3 is a 106mm planar magnetic transducer, designed to deliver exceptionally high resolution and a wide frequency response. Thanks to the proprietary magnetic structure and Fazor phase management technology, the sound is incredibly detailed, with impeccable instrument separation and a three-dimensionality that transports the listener to the heart of the recording.

The construction of the Audeze LCD-3 leaves no room for compromise: the zebra wood rings, handcrafted in the American headquarters, give a refined and natural aesthetic, while the ventilated headband and premium ear cups ensure unparalleled comfort, even during the longest listening sessions.

An enveloping and natural sound

The Audeze LCD-3s are designed to deliver rich, vibrant sound with lifelike scale and authority. Their wide frequency response, spanning 10Hz to 50kHz, allows you to hear every musical nuance, from deep, articulated bass to natural, immersive mids and airy, detailed highs.

The timbre is remarkably natural, with a wide and deep soundstage that realistically recreates the original acoustic environment. The sensitivity of 101 dB/1 mW and 110 ohm impedance make the Audeze LCD-3 ideal for use with high-end amplifiers, both tube and solid-state, further enhancing their sonic capabilities.

This feature makes them particularly appreciated by the most demanding audiophiles, who seek musical reproduction as faithful as possible to the original recording. The high dynamic range and low distortion (<0.1% @ 100dB) allow you to perceive every detail effortlessly, even in the most complex and information-rich passages.

Comfort and top quality materials

A key aspect of the Audeze LCD-3 is the focus on comfort. Weighing 635g, these headphones offer the perfect balance between durability and comfort, thanks to a combination of high-quality materials and an ergonomic design designed to reduce fatigue during long listening sessions.

The earcups, crafted from premium materials, gently envelop the ears, creating an ideal listening environment without uncomfortable pressure. The ventilated headband ensures even weight distribution across the head, further enhancing overall comfort.

The handcrafted construction, with attention to the smallest details, not only ensures an elegant and distinctive look, but also a durability that makes the Audeze LCD-3 a long-term investment for every music lover.

Advanced technology for uncompromising performance

The Audeze LCD-3s stand out for their cutting-edge technology, designed to ensure exceptional sound reproduction in any context. The Fluxor magnetic structure ensures greater efficiency and better management of magnetic flux, while the ultra-thin diaphragm reduces weight and increases responsiveness, offering extremely detailed and natural sound.

Thanks to their high power handling capacity (5W RMS), the Audeze LCD-3 can be paired with the best amplifiers on the market, achieving top-notch performance. The recommended power level is above 250mW, allowing you to fully exploit the headphones' potential and ensure uncompromising sound reproduction.

The wide dynamic range, combined with the extraordinary transparency of the sound, makes them perfect for use in professional environments, such as recording and mastering studios, but also for the most demanding audiophiles who want an unparalleled listening experience.

The Audeze LCD-3 comes fully equipped with a standard LCD travel case, a 4-pin XLR cable, a 4-pin XLR to 1/4” TRS adapter, and a 1/4” to 3.5mm adapter, as well as a warranty card and certificate of authenticity.
