Audeze’s New Planar Magnetic Flagship Headphones: Say Hello to the LCD-5!

Announced by the world-renowned headphone manufacturer Audeze is their new flagship planar magnetic headphones the LCD-5! How will these new Top-of-the-Line headphones compete with the very best in the world? Suffice it to say that the LCD-4 and LCD-4z were always in the conversation for the “world’s best”, so our hopes for the LCD-5 are really, really high!

We have a pair in and our review is currently underway. Please keep checking back here as we expect it shouldn’t take too long. In the meantime, here are some key details: 18 ohms impedance, 90 dB/mW sensitivity and now at a mass of only 420 grams (roughly 1/3 of the LCD-4). These headphones are gorgeous and come in at a price point of $4500 USD. More to come…

By day, I’m a husband, father and professional engineer. But by night, I’m an audiophile and music junkie. Many say that music is food for the soul and nothing works better for me than Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Rush and Miles Davis. For the past 25 years I’ve been on an audio journey that continues to this day.
