Great review. I have the LCD2C Closed and ordered a Noire that arrives tomorrow. You nailed it with the LCD and you made me even more excited about getting the Noire. The pace of your presentation is better. Remember, a peroid has a slightly longer pause than a comma when presenting. I am subscribed and I hit the thumbs up button! Cheers, brother!!

Thank you @Geo Demikids appreciate your support! ***Marcello TSAV

After getting the Noire what were your comparison thoughts? Trying to decide which to order so your thoughts are appreciated..

[@gdemirjian]

@@paulgross682 the Noire is more balanced and overall better for music enjoyment than the LCD2 Classic Closed. I departed with the LCD. However, I do love my LCD-X 2021 a lot!

[@ChrisKeyman]

@@gdemirjian hello! How compares the aeon with the lcd-x ?

[@gdemirjian]

[@danieldavis3565]

Great review, especiall comparing the soundstages, as this is what I am currently looking for in a closed back! 👍🏻

[@ChrisoneillART]

I'd really like to try the Aeons, they look great.

[@TheSourceAVDesignGroup]

Everything looks great on a Grumpy Goose headphone stand! Thank you for watching and your continued support, brother; I appreciate you. ***Marcello TSAV

[@katinkaenglish6895]

An awesome comparison.

[@ChrisCDXX]

Great video! I am considering both of these.. having a hard time. I like the neutrality of the DCA but don't know if I can sacrifice superior Punch and Dynamics from the LCD2. if the LCD2 Punch and Dynamics was at 100%. What would the noire be?

[@TheSourceAVDesignGroup]

@ChrisCDXX I don't personally find any of the DCA headphones to sound very punchy in their presentation. They have lots of great qualities but if punch & slam are important to you the Noire will not provide much of that. ***Marcello TSAV

[@ChrisCDXX]

@@TheSourceAVDesignGroup Thank you for the reply! Do you think the LCD2 or the LCD XC would have the punch and slam? I really have yet to find a planar driver that delivers that punch and slam.

[@arthurhaywood2184]

While I agree with you that DCA headphones won’t be as “punchy”, they can get reasonably close (about 85%?) if given enough time & power. I own both the Ether CX and the Noire. The Noire is a recent purchase & I don’t have the hours on it yet but the Ether CX needed about 350+ hours before it showed any reasonable semblance of dynamics. Not the best, but at least credible. It was the last thing to kick in on those. They’re still not in Focal territory but they’re acceptable.

[@Bootrosgali]

Can get a pair of LCD 2 for 350euros used.. I would use them portable so would get a portable amp! I listen to IDM music mostly.

This was exactly what I was looking for and about to type in 😂😂😂😂
