I loooove open back headphones. These seem absolutely amazing, but I couldn't justify spending more than $250 on headphones. I'm sure that these are better than a $250 pair of cans, but the price to performance ratio just isn't for me at $900.

They use the same driver as the LCD-X/MX4. The LCD-GX have their following for guys who don't even game. They are known as one of the few Audeze headset that don't need an EQ. I have had mine for over a year now, and I like them better than my old LCD-X.
that is very intresting take, I'm not audiophile at all and I do have those for almost 3.5 years now, for gaming, this beast is a MUST EQ, everything above 1khz is really down.
As an owner of the 300 USD HyperX cloud orbit... I've come to the conclusion that the only thing that could beat those headphones is these from Audeze. I've bought several other headsets and I just can't stand the audio quality... It's something that you just can't go back. It's like switching from HDD to SSD. Some things can never be experienced the same way. Someday I might go full 900 USD for those... But for now, I hope I don't try them, I might not be the same guy again once that day passes
A separate headphone and microphone would beat those hyper X resoundingly for sound quality and microphone quality for cheaper than the LCD GX. So unless you are playing on console, that is a much better option and more flexible than any gaming headset
People that don’t understand why a headphones can cost $900 plus has never used one for a set amount of time, and I don’t mean that to offend anyone it’s just something that has to be experienced. And you hit it right in the head “Investment” with a big I because that is truly what it is and once you start down that road it doesn’t get any cheaper 😅
Great video! You might want to look at the LCD-XC if you want an amazing closed back experience. I have the 2020 LCD-X and I love them but Audeze recently upgraded the line and they improved them. So if you get them now they are even better.
Having just purchased the Hyper X Cloud Orbit S during the hyper X sale, these reviews have been extremely relevant for me. I was just looking at this headset the other day.
Let's say I wanted to get these.. and from what I'm hearing these work on the series X no problem if you plug them into your controller... Question is could I plug in one of those smaller amps from the video into the Xbox (USB) and get even better audio?.. Or is a sound already that much more better you could use it but you don't need it???
These are specifically designed for gaming and have a sound signature quite different from Audeze's normal headphones. Most reviews I've seen from audiophiles don't particularly like them and think the LCD 2 sound much better and are around the same price as the GX.
Are amps worth buying on a gaming laptop? That’s also why I can’t decide which headset I don’t really have a budget. I just bought a top of the line x17 Alienware. Penrose has that long dongle for wireless on the back and I usually play with the laptop in my lap laid back in a recliner. But I like the idea of steel series with a game dak.

Hifiman Sundara's + Meze 99 Series 1.2m Standard Cable with Mic and Remote. Best sound for under $1000. A good amp/dac will always make things sound better but avoid 'gaming' amps(except schiit Hel 2). I run em off iFi zen combo, but there are loads of options.

the mezes were made to run with phones and plugging them into an amp wouldn't give you too much of a benefit the lcd-gx does not require a lot of power but an amp/dac combo is still recommended to get the most out of planar headphones, something like a fulla 4 from schiit is more than enough
@@Hungarian_ it's more than just power with an amp. Especially with an amp/dac combo, it's about how it processes the audio signal and will always sound better (depending on the amp)

I am running my headphones through my speaker aux port and using a wireless usb mic. I want to have a way to power the headphones better - but have multiple aux inputs running to my Logitech speaker through my PC. What is the best way to have multiple aux inputs running to either speakers or a pair of headphones? I looked at an aux switch - but they seemed very cheap.

How different does it sound when plugged to a smartphone, versus into a proper dac/amp? Is it day and night difference, very subtle or no noticeable difference?
I decided to save my money last year and bought the top of the line steel series instead of these. The steel series are already broken, and I'm going to buy these anyway. Better than buying a new headset every year in my opinion😑. I hate that it costs this much to get an actual quality product.
I don't get people they spend alot on a computer then buy a cheap monitor lol. If you're buying a expensive pc spend the money and doit right quality monitor and quality head phones these cans are really good.
@Male Sensitivity I didn't knew the exact english term but translated its called Study allowance, basically yes I receive money to be able to afford food, an apartment and general living reasons. Obviously you don't get it for nothing but there is not much you have to pay for studying

@Male Sensitivity I don't want to buy one anyway but what I mean is I don't have to save money for reasons like college and I can make money by working outer school hours and use that money to buy stuff.

i have had the lcd gx for almost a year now and omg these are the endgame of headphones. the only trade off is that it is cabled but the quality of the sound is worth it.
I would because I am looking for the best of the best. I'd rather pay the price for something like this that will last me forever vs buying 300 dollar headphones that end up getting outdated or they come out with better headphones the following year that I'll end up buying and going through the hassle trying to sell my used ones. In the long run you'll save money which is why I game on pc as well.

For $900 that mic is trash. Not really bad but not adding to the 900$ price. I feel like you can get some of the best headphones that are just as good if not better sounding and get a good dedicated mic if you are going to spend that much. The only way I could see it justify the price and marketing is if that mic was just as good as stand-alone ones and or had some of the features other "gaming headsets" have.
A detachable mic will never be as good as a stand-alone mic, ever, what you are paying for here is audeze’s world class audio, you are getting their “audiophile” sound but targeted at gaming, their other headphones are much more then this lol and they are the best of the best, you want the best of the best you have to pay for it, period 🤷🏼♂️
I don't have a problem with the price. It just makes no sense to add such a mic with it. They could have made it sound a lot better. If they couldn't I would rather they just not.

if i could afford/justify 900 for a gaming headset id buy them in a heart beat ..ive got 2 astro a50 600 there the penrose x another 300 and the xbox headset another 100 ...if i didnt have these already i would pay the 900
$900 headphones equal 9 Xbox wireless headset so if each head set last 3 years? I will have 27 years worth of headsets. I probably wouldn’t live that long.
People It’s not about justifying if they are worth $900. It’s about the experience. Most of us average gamers haven’t and will never be able to experience what real audio $900 quality headphones can give you. But I would love to.. just for the experience. Then I would return them 😭🤣. And I’ll stick with my Audeze Penrose X👍🏼.
Man 900 dollars..... gaming headset... wow. this is more like the price for a audiophile, not a gamer, unless you just splurge on whatever is the best. but if your buying the best gaming headset, wouldnt you buy a non gamer headset of the same calibur? Not to mention after you sold me on the penrose, its hard to go back to a wired set..... it gets loud, it thumps, highs are crisp, modded its comfy, seperation is awesome,. The only wish i had, is if they had an open back version, i'd love to have them as well to swap between them when i jam out to some live music.
So my wife’s LV bag @$3000 is considered a normal purchase… but as soon as I buy a $900 headphone I’m considered crazy 😂

no, they're saying "better off spending the extra $300 and get the LCD-X" Most audiophiles aren't fans of the GX.
Budget Audiophile here. Tecne is awesome but these are just ok. Penrose/Mobious meh too. Get a hyperx cloud 2, not alpha for value.
Audiophiles like cheap headphones too. Lot of $5 to $50 budget finds especially with eq.

@@pc_decisions8764 Ended up placing an order on the Tygr 300r thank you for the help!
Hifiman Sundara's + Meze 99 Series 1.2m Standard Cable with Mic and Remote
I need that crackhead special on these for real.
Hope your kids doing fine Nice review 👍
300 is my max and overdoing it i just got the novas pro wireless because i got tire of the astros.
you can buy a full gaming setup for that price.
alienware 310h please review it
I think I need to stop watching your videos... Great content... It's that I just bought a set of audeze Penrose with extra cushions cuz of your lovely video... They arrive in a couple days, but every video you post now makes me second guess my purchase...lol
a pair of Sennheiser 599HD openback prob sound better
Hahah, really. I have to try these. Not available on the shelf;)
That microphone is pretty bad lol. I'm sure the headphones are great but, I see no reason to upgrade from my M50x right now. I use a desk microphone for my computer.
for the freaking price I expected the mic to be better, from my perspective, yeah, is sharp but for ome reason i expected more... I don't know, anyway great vid but yeaah that is not an option I'd consider, my bank account would be like "bro, what are you doing?!"
Just get a DAC and Peace Equalizer ... make your headphones sound $900
if i could afford/justify 900 for a gaming headset id buy them in a heart beat ..ive got 2 astro a50 600 there the penrose x another 300 and the xbox headset another 100 ...if i didnt have these already i would pay the 900
Techne with a new video🤩
no matter how much of a audio file i was if i was one , i would never pay 900 for a headset . my budget would ne 300 no more and no less.
Let's Goooo Techne my brother
$900 headphones equal 9 Xbox wireless headset so if each head set last 3 years? I will have 27 years worth of headsets. I probably wouldn’t live that long.
People It’s not about justifying if they are worth $900. It’s about the experience. Most of us average gamers haven’t and will never be able to experience what real audio $900 quality headphones can give you. But I would love to.. just for the experience. Then I would return them 😭🤣. And I’ll stick with my Audeze Penrose X👍🏼.
lol
I would probably get it
In 10 years
i remeber you from the diarrhea keyboard lol you have grown A LOT good job
For 1 day put your channel name as uncle techne
Try the hd800s :)
Well, open back headphones are for in a quiet room with nobody around no ambient noise if you don’t have that don’t buy them simple as that.
The DT 990 pro headphones are perfectly fine and are significantly less
DT 1990 pro's are even cheaper and better in every way for FPS games.
Man 900 dollars..... gaming headset... wow. this is more like the price for a audiophile, not a gamer, unless you just splurge on whatever is the best. but if your buying the best gaming headset, wouldnt you buy a non gamer headset of the same calibur? Not to mention after you sold me on the penrose, its hard to go back to a wired set..... it gets loud, it thumps, highs are crisp, modded its comfy, seperation is awesome,. The only wish i had, is if they had an open back version, i'd love to have them as well to swap between them when i jam out to some live music.
Ya lost me at $900
I'd have to win the lottery first
Just rent em on amazon for 30 days >_
The question is, was it worth$900 to you?
