About the Headphones

 
"The LCD-X headphones have become an integral part of my workflow, for both recording and mixing. In less than two months I worked with Devin Townsend in my own studio in Gothenburg, mixed a Jordan Rudess song on my laptop, made presets for two upcoming plugins while traveling, made a preproduction in Chicago, and mixed a metal band from back home. So the Audeze headphones really saved me during that period. They’re such a joy to work with, their clarity is truly amazing, and they really make me trust my ears and my decisions."
