Audeze LCD-5s Headphones
The LCD-5s is Audeze’s flagship planar magnetic headphone, designed to deliver mastering-grade precision with a more natural and lifelike frequency response than the original LCD-5. Incorporating a new driver design, SLAM acoustic management, and redesigned earpads, LCD-5s presents an expansive soundstage, powerful yet controlled bass, and exceptional long-term comfort.
Every element is engineered for realism and refinement, combining cutting-edge acoustic technology with premium handcrafted materials for listeners who demand absolute accuracy and luxury.
Key Features
- New planar magnetic driver design for improved tonal realism and midrange precision
- SLAM acoustic management for extended bass, impact, and openness
- Nano-scale Parallel Uniforce diaphragm with ultra-low mass and high responsiveness
- Redesigned earpads for improved seal, comfort, and reduced internal reflections
- Fluxor magnet array and Fazor phase management for low distortion and spatial accuracy
- Premium materials including carbon fiber, magnesium, genuine leather, and polished polymer acetate
- Ultra high-purity OCC copper cable optimized for low resistance and low capacitance
Sound and Use Case
LCD-5s is built for professional mastering, critical listening, and reference-grade home systems. The combination of precise driver control and SLAM technology delivers a deeply layered soundstage with authoritative bass that remains tight and articulate. Midrange reproduction is exceptionally accurate, while the treble extends effortlessly without harshness, making LCD-5s suitable for long, focused listening sessions.
