Appreciate the E3 comparison. The one disappointment I had with that set was specifically the lack of impact. I usually reach for the Radiance or an EQ’d LCD-X if that’s what I’m looking for, but they’re both missing one thing or another. Looks like the Liric 2 might potentially act as a good bridge between my “fun” and detail sets.

They added a bass port specifically in the E3 to improve impact but it seems to be an issue still. I guess it's just a consequence of overdamping your headphones.

As an E3 owner and to my ears, E3 does not sound fatiguing like audeze lcd5, and I can listen to E3 for at least 4 hours without problem. The only downside is it is very hard to drive. Although extremely portable, Almost like a desktop only headphones. I will hold this until the new Stellia release.

I really like energetic headphones, even at work and so there are some more comparisons that I would be interested in. I would be curious how the DCA E3 and LCD-XC compare and work into the mix for rock/metal listening....should you read this. 😀

I felt no need to EQ Liric 2. LCD-XC (2021) is going to be more dynamically forward with more impact. It's also much heavier and less comfortable. It's been too long since I've heard LCD-XC to go into details on how the other technicalities compare.

"It's not going to be a headphone that jumps out and grabs you and wow's you". That's very sad for a $2000 headphone. What are these companies thinking selling a headphone for $2000. Or the people buying a headphone that wave theory describes as a "good" headphone. I have good headphones that cost under $300. Pretty crazy.

I think a bit more care is needed here. Presumably, since you're here, you're also a music lover. How many times have you heard a new song or new artist and not been immediately impressed, but then over time and after hearing them again for whatever reason you start to understand the brilliance behind what they do? Eventually, you may even grow to love their work. I don't think it's crazy to think that similar can happen to the gear with which we listen to that music. My $0.02.

Hi, which one would be the best upgrade for LCD-2C - Elite, Empy1 or Liric2? I am very glad with the overall sound signature and lush, full body, laid back tonal balance of 2C so I am not looking for something different but something similar with some technical improvent. Thanks.
@joggometer5393
6 ай бұрын
Lush, laid back, full body...that screams empyrean all day. I still love it and more detail (empy 2) does not equal better for me. As a whole empy 1 is still my best headphone I've listened to and or owned at some point. Furthermore your can tweak the Empyrean with the angled Alcantara pads and then I'm sure only the most critical listeners favouring the analytical type will still find them missing something in the details. They are really unique and it's hard to find music material they don't sound at least great.

Atrium / Verite Closed or even Bokeh will give you more bang for the buck here when it comes down to music. Meze is design brand first, tuning and technicalities are usually very unremarkable compared to competitors.

With the Empy (V1), Elite, and Liric V1 I would have agreed with you. 109 Pro & Liric 2 are technically price appropriate while maintaining the exquisite aestheitcs and build. Hopefully this means Meze are hitting their stride.

Strongly disagree here. I own several headphones that are significantly more expensive, and yet I find I reach for the 109 Pros far more often. That set surprised me, even at the price point they’re set at. They’re likely a permanent addition to my collection.
