Tonal Profile

The Non-Fazor member of the LCD-2 family. Electrically the published numbers are identical to the Fazor LCD-2 and to the Closed-Back; the difference the pages do describe is phase management and 51 g of weight, neither of which the calculator can see.

What the datasheet actually says

Quoted verbatim from the manufacturer’s own page, with the date we checked it. We state what is printed, not what anyone intended by it.

One figure, several models
«Impedance 70 ohms | Sensitivity 101 dB/1mW (at Drum Reference Point)»

Audeze publishes the same pair - 70 ohms and 101 dB/1mW - on LCD-2, LCD-2 Classic and LCD-2 Closed-Back, although the same tables give the three different phase management (Fazor for LCD-2, Non-Fazor for the other two), different backs (open and closed) and different weights (595 g, 544 g, 612 g). One electrical figure covers three products that the same pages describe as acoustically different.
