Key Features for Gaming and Studio
Reference Planar Drivers
Based on the LCD series, the LCD-GX offers planar speakers significantly larger than most gaming headphones, for controlled dynamics, tight bass, and precise spatialization. The open design widens the soundstage and facilitates source placement.
Microphone Oriented for Clear Communication
The detachable mic cable includes a directional capsule with noise reduction, a mute switch, and a flexible arm for optimal positioning, ensuring clear exchanges during gaming or voice recording.
Comfort and Durability
Handcrafted, the magnesium housing reduces weight without sacrificing robustness. The open-cell foam pads and suspension headband distribute pressure for fatigue-free marathons.
Unadulterated Analog Performance
The single-sided Fluxor magnetic structure delivers
high sensitivity and
low distortion (100 dB/1 mW at 1 kHz), offering precise and responsive listening without DSP, with excellent transient response useful both in gaming and monitoring.
Immediate Compatibility
Two cables are included: a 3.5 mm TRRS cable with microphone for PC, Mac, and mobile devices, and a braided LCD 6.35 mm TRS cable for hi-fi or studio use. A headset/mic splitter and an OMTP to CTIA adapter extend compatibility.
