Hi there, sorry if this issue was already covered here - all of a sudden and out of the blue my Penrose PS got struck with the infamous left driver crackle. It is pretty bad, every head-moment, touching the left housing results in "loud" and very annoying crackling. So right to the point - is...

Roger that! Wednesday is only roughly 120 hours away ...

Hi there, 1. Congratulations! You'll like it - even if 0 hum is rare :-) 2. Did your THR-1 run free of issues??

No, I really did refer to the KT170 big bois :-)

Yup, understood. For some reason I thought the KT170 needed less ...

Does anybody know if the KT170 works in the HA-6a without causing a major meltdown. Forgive me if that has been discussed before ...

200ohm should be okay with OTL - but not sure if the Echo has enough raw muscle? 350mw on tap if I'm not mistaken, or? Close call ...

OS mode ...

This is a little embarassing - I'm using the mode with no LED on. Do not know if this is NOS or not?? Will have to look this up :sunglasses:

I would pretty much agree with you on the bass. I've not heard 2,3,2f,2c but the bass on the 4 is certainly not too pronounced - its just very firm, very controlled all the way and yes very detailed. I'm now looking for something similar or closely related in closed-back form. I have heard the...

According to the invoice of my used LCD-4 mine is Macassar ebony. You can compare and maybe figure out ...

This is not a review, not even close … Some thoughts about my “new” LCD-4 in my setup and the other “main” headphones I have. This is a used 2017 model in very good shape with non-memory leather pads. Signal comes from Audiodata MSII server/streamer with Roon > Roon endpoint on Macbook Air > USB...

Well, I looked there, too. Nope, sticker gone! So this will remain a mystery in the same magnitude as to who really killed Kennedy. Must see if I feel like contacting the German dealer who sold this to the gentleman in France from whom I bought the headphone?? Please extend my regards to "upper...

Thanx for the help. Much appreciated! However - I just picked up the steel-headband and .... where is the serial number on it? Is there a serial number on the headband??

please gimme some more time - I'm going back and forth with the VC and the LCD-4 and the HD800 - actually trying to NOT to get used to the LCD-4 sound! So I have not spend enough hours with it but enjoying every minute and making some great discoveries in my library along the way ...

Bass better or on the same level??

Was the 4 ever sold with the steelband?? I can only see them with the carbon-headband. The seller did actually duck the question or seriously had no idea (I have no reason to doubt the seller in any way!). I do have the original invoice and that does not list any details of the headphone. Other...

Cosmetic surgery performed. Patient accepted the implant very well. Well the Steelband just did not look/feel right on the LCD-4. Luckily a used one showed up near by. Needed some care and detailing but I really think it was worth the investment ...

Most certainly something I will clarify with Audeze or the distributor before ordering some new pads.

Another question/concern regarding pads. I have 2017 non-memory-foam leather pads on my 2017 LCD-4. These are in good shape and I've been told to take good care of them as they seem to create a somewhat more friendly frequency response. So today I've been carefully applying some leather care and...

Although Audeze is not quite innocent here. I had some questions regarding my new, old LCD4 and Audeze does refer to these pads too as "2021 revision"

I'm just glad he did not rank the Arya higher than the 4s - because I think he does prefer the Arya although they have no chesthair and very small testies ... but then again does this ranking stuff really matter?

Kinki Studio THR-1. If I'm not mistaken 2.2 w at 300ohm and some funny 28w at 8ohm. If I'm not mistaken ...

The good news is - both my amps can drive LCD4 fine in terms of volume and control! Quite a relief ...
