Audeze LCD-GX

LCD-GX - Open-Back Planar Magnetic Gaming Headset

LCD-GX is developed for listeners who refuse to accept compromises between gaming and music. Based on the acclaimed LCD series, Audeze combines true high-end headphone performance with precise and clear voice communication. The result is a headset aimed at the serious gamer with audiophile ambitions and the discerning listener who wants one solution without limitations.

LCD-GX takes an uncompromisingly analog approach and is free from digital signal processing. The focus here is exclusively on pure sound, high resolution, and a natural sense of space.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Open-back planar magnetic design with exceptional spatial precision
• Large 106 mm driver for deep bass and high resolution
• Neutral and detailed tonal balance suited to both gaming and music
• High sensitivity and low distortion
• Magnesium construction with low weight and high rigidity
• Detachable cable with directional microphone for voice communication
• Hand-built construction with a focus on comfort and durability

PRECISE SOUND IN GAMES AND MUSIC

LCD-GX delivers sound reproduction that combines precision and engagement. The open-back design creates a wide and deep soundstage, where positioning and distance are reproduced with great accuracy. In games, this means movement, direction, and spatial cues are presented clearly and intuitively. In music, it provides an open and natural soundstage with clear separation between instruments.

The bass range is controlled and physical without being dominant, while the midrange reproduces voices and details with great clarity. The treble is balanced and free from harshness, making long sessions both comfortable and engaging.

PLANAR MAGNETIC TECHNOLOGY FOR REAL-TIME PRECISION

The large planar magnetic driver uses an ultra-thin diaphragm that responds instantly to the signal. This ensures an extremely fast transient response, which is crucial in gaming, where timing and microdynamics directly affect the experience. The even distribution of force across the entire diaphragm also provides stable, distortion-free reproduction, even at high sound pressure levels.

The open-back construction allows the sound to unfold freely and contributes to the unusual sense of space that clearly sets LCD-GX apart from traditional gaming headsets.

VOICE COMMUNICATION WITH CLARITY AND CONTROL

LCD-GX comes with a dedicated cable that integrates a directional microphone designed for clear and focused voice capture. The microphone is flexibly mounted and can be adjusted precisely, so the voice is reproduced clearly without unnecessary background noise. An integrated mute function makes it easy to manage communication during gaming.

For listeners who do not need a microphone, a separate cable is included, allowing the headphones to be used as a pure audiophile model.

COMFORT FOR LONG SESSIONS

LCD-GX is designed with long-term comfort in mind. The magnesium ear cups combine low weight with high mechanical stability, while the soft open-cell foam ear pads ensure good ventilation and reduce heat buildup. The adjustable headband distributes the weight evenly and provides a stable fit without unnecessary pressure.

Despite the solid construction, the headphones feel light and balanced, even during many hours of use.

SCALES WITH YOUR EQUIPMENT

With its relatively low impedance and high sensitivity, LCD-GX works with a wide range of equipment. It performs convincingly straight from interfaces and controllers, but it clearly rewards the use of a dedicated DAC and headphone amplifier with greater control, a larger sense of space, and better dynamics.

This makes LCD-GX suitable for both gaming setups and serious hi-fi systems.

ONE HEADSET WITHOUT COMPROMISES

LCD-GX is not a traditional gaming headset. It is a full-blooded planar magnetic headphone with integrated communication, created for those who demand the same sound quality in games as they do in music. A solution for enthusiasts who want precision, realism, and comfort without sacrificing audiophile quality.

It is gaming for listeners who know what good sound should sound like.
