Frequently Asked Questions - LCD-3 Audeze
What is the difference between planar magnetic and dynamic headphones?
Planar magnetic headphones use a thin, flat diaphragm with embedded conductors placed between two magnets, providing lower distortion and more uniform sound than dynamic drivers.
Do Audeze LCD-3 headphones require an amplifier?
Yes, due to their low sensitivity (101 dB/mW) and moderate impedance (110 ohms), they benefit from a dedicated headphone amplifier for optimal volume and sound quality.
How long is the burn-in period for the LCD-3?
Audeze recommends approximately 50-100 hours of break-in to stabilize the diaphragm and achieve intended sound signature.
Can I replace the earpads on the LCD-3?
Yes, the ear pads are user-replaceable. Audeze offers different materials (leather, suede) and you can purchase replacements from their store.
What cable options are available for the LCD-3?
It comes with a standard 1.9m cable terminating in dual 1/4" jacks. Audeze also sells balanced cables (XLR, 4.4mm) and custom lengths.
Is the LCD-3 suitable for gaming or casual listening?
Yes, its detailed and immersive soundstage is excellent for gaming and music, though it is open-back and will leak sound.
How heavy are the Audeze LCD-3 headphones?
They weigh approximately 550 grams (without cable), which is typical for planar magnetic headphones; some users may find them heavy for extended use.
What is the warranty period for the LCD-3?
Audeze offers a limited 3-year warranty against defects. Extended warranty plans are available for purchase.
How do I clean the LCD-3 headphones?
Use a damp, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the earpads and headband. Avoid getting moisture on the driver magnets or connectors.

The official specification is 5 Hz – 20 kHz, though in practice they extend beyond 20 kHz with smooth roll-off.
