Transparency, Resolution, and Speed

The LCD-5 sets a new standard for accuracy. Its drivers are
engineered with our award-winning Fluxor magnets and updated Fazor waveguides
along with our new Patent-pending Parallel Uniforce™ voice coils, which employ
varying width parallel traces to keep the impedance low and provide increased
voltage headroom by altering the current density within each trace. The uniform
force created by this optimization lowers distortion and provides better
control over diaphragm movement, resulting in improved sonic resolution.

Clarity and Imaging

We’ve optimized every aspect of the LCD-5’s acoustic chamber
to achieve pinpoint imaging and an extremely clean and clear soundstage. The
new sculpted earpads and acoustically transparent mesh are designed to minimize
reflections and resonance, while the Parallel Uniforce™ voice coil allows
increased space between magnets for improved frequency response and a more open
soundstage. LCD-5 also features newly designed low-profile Fazor waveguides to
further reduce diffractions and interactions with the ear.

Elegant Comfortable Design

Weighing in at only 420 grams, the LCD-5 offers hours of
listening pleasure. Every part has been re-engineered, using materials such as
magnesium, aluminum and acetate which offer light weight and high rigidity.
When you put on a pair of LCD-5s, your head and ears are cradled in materials
of the finest quality. Supple premium leather and carbon-fiber pull all the
elements together into a package of the finest craftsmanship, which we
hand-assemble in our California workshop.

Sculpted Earpads

Our new sculpted, internally sloped earpad architecture
reduces unwanted resonances and interior reflections. The ergonomic design
cradles your cranium, and helps naturally place the headphone in the optimal
listening position. The pads have less contact surface area than standard
designs to reduce fatigue while providing a superior seal for all shapes and
sizes.

Ultra High Purity Cable

The LCD-5 cable is specially tuned with directional OCC
high-purity copper strands that provide a low capacitance and low resistance
path for the signal to travel from your amp to the drivers, maintaining
unsurpassed clarity and precision.
