{"product_id":"audeze-lcd-xc-bl-prem-374877","title":"LCD-XC-BL-PREM","description":"\u003ch3\u003eThe LCD-XC: The LCD DNA, Closed-Back Version for the Studio\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduced in 2013, the LCD-XC quickly established itself as Audeze's high-end \"closed-back\" solution, designed to retain the openness and resolution of the LCD family while adding the essential isolation needed for studio situations. It carries forward the brand's approach centered on the planar driver and pairs it with a carefully tuned closed chamber to maintain an analytical and coherent listening experience, even when the environment isn't perfectly silent. Over successive iterations, the ergonomics have been refined to facilitate daily work, with particular attention to comfort and long-term wear stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Headphone Designed for Mixing, Monitoring, and Editing Without Compromise\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Audeze LCD-XC targets sound engineers, producers, content creators, and musicians who require critical listening in varied conditions: recording booths, mobile control rooms, home studios, video editing, or on-the-go sessions. Thanks to its closed-back design, it is especially relevant for \u003cstrong\u003emonitoring during recording\u003c\/strong\u003e (vocals, guitars, acoustic instruments, podcasts) when sound leakage needs to be minimized, and for \u003cstrong\u003emixing on headphones\u003c\/strong\u003e when room acoustic treatment does not always allow for reliable decisions. Its precise reproduction helps judge vocal placement, cleanliness of the low end, compression levels, and spatial management (stereo and depth) with greater consistency. For those working across multiple locations, using compatible calibration tools (such as Audeze Reveal+) can enhance perceptual continuity from session to session, depending on your listening chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Technologies and Sound Approach\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003e106 mm Planar Drivers: Speed, Control, and Low Distortion\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the LCD-XC, Audeze's planar technology aims for fast and controlled reproduction, useful for immediately spotting attacks, micro-dynamics variations, and subtle defects (clicks, breaths, resonances). The ultra-thin Uniforce diaphragms, combined with Fazor waveguides and high-flux neodymium magnets, contribute to precise transient response and a stable soundstage, particularly appreciated for setting reverb, dosing a de-esser, or adjusting saturation without overcorrection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eClosed-Back Design: Focus, Clean Recordings, and More Consistent Listening\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe LCD-XC's closed chamber is not just for isolation: it is designed to preserve a neutral and usable signature in production while limiting sound leakage. The result: you stay focused in a lively environment, and your recordings benefit from greater cleanliness when headphones must coexist with sensitive microphones. This is a direct advantage for vocals, streaming, podcasting, and overdub sessions where every detail counts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStudio Ergonomics: Comfort, Stability, and Reliability\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe suspension headband distributes pressure evenly, while the premium ear pads ensure stable fit. This \"long format\" approach is valuable for days of editing, mixing, and mastering, where attentive listening alternates with quick decision-making. The goal is simple: to allow you to work for long periods with reliable perception and limited fatigue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility and Growth Potential According to Your Listening Chain\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThanks to its low impedance and efficiency, the LCD-XC can be easily driven by a wide variety of headphone outputs (audio interfaces, consoles, dedicated amplifiers, mobile devices). It remains sufficiently resolving to reveal improvements brought by higher-quality electronics: cleaner power supply, gain reserve, low-end control, and increased sense of openness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCategory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eheadphone\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImpedance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e20 Ω\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:7;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ecircumaural\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable headset\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:8;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower handling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e5 W\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e10 Hz -
