Audeze LCD-MX4 - Planar Magnetic Open Back Headphones

The Audeze LCD-MX4 represents the ultimate fusion of Audeze's Flagship and Reference lines. By marrying the easily driven voice coil design of the famous LCD-X with the supreme magnetic power of the flagship series, the LCD-MX4 serves as a rigid tool for top audio professionals and critical listeners. Delivering a highly controlled bass response, ultra-fast transients, and remarkably low distortion, the LCD-MX4 behaves like a professional studio monitoring system. It eliminates the environment from the equation giving you a neutral and translatable reference whether you are working in a world-class facility or on a laptop ion the go. Unlike the power-hungry flagship headphones that require amplification, the LCD-MX4 is engineered for the highest workflow efficiency. It features a patented Double Fluxor™ Magnetic Array that achieves a flux density of 1.5 Tesla, the most powerful magnetic circuit ever in a headphone. Paired with a patented, ultra-thin Uniforce™ voice coil, this ultra-efficient 20-ohm system pulls out precise details with breathtaking clarity straight from any standard studio audio interface, console headphone jack, or portable field recorder. Engineered with direct feedback from busy, touring audio engineers, the LCD-MX4 swaps traditional heavy wood rings for a sleek, precision-cast magnesium chassis. The advanced, non-resonant housing makes the MX4 significantly lighter than standard flagship models, maximising comfort for long sessions. A flexible carbon fibre suspension headband and deep, sloped premium ear cushions provide perfect weight distribution. Key Features Flagship 1.5 Tesla Drivers: Patented Double Fluxor™ magnet arrays deliver elite transient speed and perfectly controlled bass. Ultra-Low Impedance Efficiency: Efficient 20-ohm architecture allows for masterclass audio reference monitoring straight from laptops and portable production gear. Lightweight Magnesium Chassis: Ultra-durable magnesium housing drops overall bulk to prevent physical wearing fatigue. Uniforce™ Diaphragm Technology: Evenly distributes magnetic force across a near-weightless film layer to produce stunning, precise detail.
