Audeze LCD-4z - Open Back Planar Magnetic Headphones with Detachable Cable and Premium Travel Case

Audeze LCD-4z

Reimagined headphone design, Audeze have created the new LCD-4z based on the acclaimed LCD-4 planar-magnetic headphones. Fully overhauled visual and technical aspects of this new addition to Audeze's top-tier range include special low impedance voice-coils that are significantly easier to drive than it's predecessor. With lighter, stronger materials and refreshed visual design the LCD-4z headphones are on a path to become legendary.

Engineered with a new magnesium housing to produce a light-weight, visually appealing headphone, the LCD-4z maintains the sound signature of LCD-4. This model does not replace the original 200 ohm LCD-4, but offers a perfect solution for users seeking more headroom and a more portable headphone experience.

Near weightless nano-scale diaphragm of the LCD-4z features Audeze's most advanced diaphragm design with nano-scale film that weighs less than the air it displaces. The quality of the entire structure guarantees years of trouble-free listening. Audeze's cutting-edge designs and circuit technologies have created a breathtakingly beautiful sounding headphone.

Next level headphone design.

LCD-4 Reinvented
LCD-4z takes the award-winning LCD-4 performance to different realms with lower impedance, updated build and new materials. It features dark sleek aesthetics with gold accents. The magnesium rings of the LCD-4z are designed to be strong, lightweight, and non-resonant for a very clean output.

Fluxor Magnetic Structure
Fluxor magnetic technology delivers nearly twice the magnetic flux density of the highest-grade neodymium magnetic circuits. This remarkable achievement results in reduced weight with greater efficiency to work with mobile devices.

Uniforce Diaphragms
Patent-pending Uniforce diaphragms configured with variable trace widths in the voice-coil that effectively capture variations in the magnetic field within the magnetic gaps creating a uniform driving force across the diaphragm surface.

Handcrafted in California, USA
Audeze LCD-4z headphone is thoroughly engineered and meticulously hand-built using the finest materials combined with cutting-edge planar magnetic technology.

3-Year Driver Warranty
Audeze's warranty covers 3-years for the headphone drivers and a 2-year warranty for all other parts. This warranty covers factory defects only, not wear and tear or cosmetic damage from use.
