Tonal Profile
A closed LCD-2 at 612 g. Closing the back changes the acoustic load on the diaphragm, but Audeze publishes exactly the impedance and sensitivity of the open versions, so the drive requirement in this database is the open one until a separate measurement says otherwise.
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.
«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.
