The LCD-2 Classic Closed is Audeze's entry into a premium, closed-back headphone experience. The planar drivers bring a satisfying punch and clarity, while the noise isolation makes them great for travel or noisy environments. These are ideal for audiophiles wanting Audeze's signature sound without the open-back characteristic, especially those who appreciate a robust build and comfortable, hypoallergenic materials.

Frequently Asked Questions

The 'Classic Closed' version offers significantly improved noise isolation and replaces the original leather earpads with a more comfortable, hypoallergenic leather-free material, but retains the core LCD-2 sound signature.
While they'll function with a portable device, a dedicated amplifier will unlock the full dynamic range and detail these headphones are capable of; a clean, powerful amp is highly recommended.
While they offer excellent detail retrieval, the closed-back design and slightly colored sound signature make them better suited for critical listening and enjoyment than neutral studio monitoring.
