With an impedance rating of just 15 ohms, the LCD-4z can be driven straight from the Aux port of your favorite listening device. If that’s not enough, our cast-magnesium housing yields a design that is lighter-weight than our standard LCD-4, making the 4z well-suited for extended listening sessions.
The Flagship from Audeze
Reimagined headphone design, Audeze has 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.
