help Audeze LCD-3 FAQ
What type of drivers do the Audeze LCD-3 headphones use?
Contrary to dynamic designs, the Audeze LCD-3 actually utilizes proprietary planar magnetic drivers. These large flat drivers use Fluxor magnets and Fazor waveguides to produce sound.
Do Audeze LCD-3 headphones need an amplifier?
Yes, due to their planar magnetic design and low sensitivity, they require a powerful external headphone amplifier to reach optimal listening volumes. Driving them directly from a standard smartphone is generally insufficient.
What is the impedance of the Audeze LCD-3?
The Audeze LCD-3 has an impedance of 110 ohms and a sensitivity of around 101 dB. While this impedance isn't extremely high, the low sensitivity makes them quite power-hungry.
