The closed-back LCD-XC offers all the sonic thrills of the LCD Collection’s open designs while isolating the listener and reducing ambient noise.

The LCD-XC is Audeze's first foray into closed-back design. They went through several years of research and development to make sure everything fell in line with their high standards of quality. With the inception of their exclusive Fazor technology, they have finally released the XC, a fully-enclosed headphone with classic Audeze-quality sound that offers a more exclusive experience in noisy environments.

Their patent-pending Fazor elements are unique to the LCD-XC and LCD-X and help guide and manage the flow of sound in the headphone. The result is improved phase response, greater frequency extension, smoother frequency response and remarkable 3D holographic imaging.

For the purest, most discerning audiophile listening sessions, open headphones remain the favored choice, but their closed-back LCD-XC is the best enclosed headphone experience you’ll find.

The LCD-XC is available in a hand-worked Bubinga wood. The enclosures are made from precision-crafted anodized aluminum with sloped earpads of either premium lambskin leather or a leather-free super-suede microfiber. The earpads are designed with specially-crafted foam offering the proper firmness and the right acoustic balance.
