Audeze LCD-1 Headphones (Brand New)
Audeze LCD-1 Headphones
Open-back planar magnetic headphones • 90 mm drivers • 16 Ω impedance • 99 dB/1mW sensitivity • 10Hz–50kHz response • lightweight foldable design
Meet the LCD-1
The Audeze LCD-1 Headphones bring the company’s planar magnetic technology into a lighter, more portable, and more approachable open-back design for critical listening at home or on the go. With 90 mm planar drivers, low distortion performance, and a folding chassis that is unusually travel-friendly for an audiophile headphone, they are built for listeners who want detail, speed, and spatial openness without the size and weight often associated with traditional planar models.
For listeners who want an easy-to-drive planar headphone with real audiophile pedigree, this model offers an impressive blend of comfort, clarity, and portability.
Highlights & Benefits
- Planar magnetic precision — the large 90 mm driver platform is engineered for fast transient response, low distortion, and excellent low-level detail retrieval.
- Open-back spaciousness — the open design helps create a more natural sense of air, space, and image placement than most closed headphones can provide.
- Easy to drive — with 16 Ω impedance and 99 dB/1mW sensitivity, these headphones are friendlier to a wide range of headphone amps, DAC/amp combos, and capable portable sources.
- Travel-friendly design — the folding construction makes this one of the more portable serious planar magnetic headphones in the category.
- Lightweight all-day comfort — at 250 g with memory foam and genuine lambskin leather ear pads, they are designed for extended listening with less fatigue.
- Serious listening without bulk — the Audeze LCD-1 Headphones are ideal for listeners who want a revealing planar sound in a much more manageable everyday form factor.
Technology & Design
Planar magnetic transducer architecture — Audeze’s planar design gives the LCD-1 quick response, strong detail recovery, and the kind of controlled, low-distortion presentation that has made planar headphones so respected in both audiophile and studio circles.
Low-distortion performance — rated at less than 0.1% THD at 100 dB, these headphones are engineered to remain clean and composed even when the music becomes demanding.
Compact audiophile execution — the foldable chassis, detachable cable design, and lightweight build make these significantly easier to live with than many larger open-back planar models.
In a properly matched setup, the Audeze LCD-1 Headphones deliver a fast, open, and highly articulate presentation that bridges serious home listening and practical everyday use.
FAQ — LCD-1
Are these open-back or closed-back headphones?
They are open-back headphones, which helps create a more spacious and natural sound but also means they leak sound more than closed-back models.
What type of driver do they use?
They use 90 mm planar magnetic drivers rather than conventional dynamic drivers.
Are they difficult to drive?
No. With 16 Ω impedance and 99 dB/1mW sensitivity, they are easier to drive than many traditional audiophile planar designs.
Are they comfortable for long sessions?
Yes. Their 250 g weight, memory foam padding, and genuine lambskin leather ear pads help support extended listening comfort.
Who are they best for?
They are a strong fit for listeners who want an open-back planar headphone with real detail and speed, but in a lighter and more portable form.
