The Choice For Long Mixing SessionsPlease note:This product is open box, it has been demonstrated by a customer, checked by our team and re-packed. Item is in as-new condition, though packaging will obviously have be opened. Full factory warranty.

The Audeze LCD-MX4 is perfect for use where one isn’t likely to have a dedicated high-powered headphone amp and can be driven easily by a laptop, mixing console or audio interface. The LCD-MX4 headphones' new lightweight design includes a durable magnesium housing with a carbon fiber headband. Significantly lighter than the LCD4 model, the new MX4 is the choice for long mixing sessions and hours of critical listening.

The concept is relatively simple, to combine the "mastering suite" type tonal balance of the LCD-X Diaphragm, favoured by the likes of Manny Manequin (Kanye West, John Mayer) and Stuart Hawkes (Ed Sheeran, Adele) with the exquisite detail of the (Bob Katz's favourite) flagship LCD-4 model, but make them lighter than the LCD-4, so are easier to wear for long mix sessions.

The MX4 is of course powered by Audeze's patented Fluxor magnets, focusing 1.5 Tesla of magnetic flux on the lightweight 20 ohm impedance diaphragm. The low impedance means that although we do advise that this is used with a high-quality dedicated headphone amp such as Audeze's own Deckard, Chord Hugo, SPL Phonitor Mini, Rupert Neve RNHP or an interface such as the RME ADI-2 Pro or one of the Antelope range, it is perfectly possible to power the LCD-MX4 from any standard laptop or interface output to a good working level.

Reveal is a revolutionary plugin developed by Audeze which applies carefully designed filter presets specific to our headphone models. This provides the listener with an experience similar to what you would hear from high quality studio reference monitors in an acoustically treated room (but without the pesky room reflections and reverb). The presets are not meant to fix any issues, but rather to enhance the listener’s experience. We expect some users will prefer our headphones without any DSP presets, while others will prefer the “room sound” calibration provided by these Reveal plugin presets. The choice is yours!.

The Reveal plugin is available at no cost for macOS (10.10 and above) and Windows (7 and above) and is compatible with most Digital Audio Workstations (DAWs) or playback software that supports AU, VST or AAX plugins. Compatible DAWs include ProTools, Logic, Ableton Live, Digital Performer, REAPER and others. Compatible audio playback software includes JRiver, Audirvana Plus, Pure Music, VOX, Foobar2000 and others. The filters used by the Reveal plugin were designed for all commonly used sample-rates (44.1 kHz - 768 kHz), so no resampling happens no matter what sample-rate you use.

Cutting Edge Materials It sounds incredibly open in the midrange and treble, and coupled with Audeze's powerful bass removes the boundaries between artist and listener. It outperforms any other in its class like electrostatics or dynamic driver headphones.

The LCD-MX4 is the most advanced planar magnetic technology to date.
