As title states LCDX is
As title states LCDX is def a step up from the Classics in the low and high ends. Not to take away from the LCD-2C as they are fantastic as well and, in my opinion, have better vocals. The vocals on the LCD-2C's are some of the best I have ever heard. Some say they are too forward, but I think they are fantastic. Where the X's shine are in the highs and lows. The highs have that sparkle which bring fwd the level of detail and its very good at portraying the correct amount of low end for the recording. For example, if the track is not particularly bassy the LCD-X will not be particularly bassy. If the track is thunderous the LCD-X will be thunderous. It never gives the impression that it's pushing a certain sound signature all the time. I EQ but I found LCD-X does not need much to get to my sound preference. I will end by stating: If the recording is bad the LCD-X's will sound like crap but if it's a good recording. . . WOW. They can't make poor recordings sound good, but they do make good recordings sound incredible.
