  • A BIG thank you to Meze Audio for lending the Liric ii for review, much appreciated. The Meze Liric ii is a gorgeous wood closed back headphone with an unique sound presentation. How does it compare to the Audeze LCD-2 Closed and Austrian Audio Hi-X60?

    I am not a professional sound engineer, producer, musician, or vocalist, etc. I have not done any scientific research, measurements, or in-depth testing of any kind; just my own listening, comparing and internet reading/research. I have limited, real-life experience with recording, mixing and mastering gear. I have been involved since my teenage years with various churches as an amateur sound booth technician.
    Please take these thoughts, opinions and reasonings as just that, my honest audiophile thoughts, opinions and reasonings.

    One day I'll have the guts to drop 2K on some headphones.

    In terms of detail, many Austrian Audio headphones punch way above their price range. I'm amazed they aren't more popular with detail chasers~

      Yes, totally agree. The Composer is amazing and I hope to get it in for review.

    Wow! I may as well keep my LCD-2 closed back!

    Thanks Dave! I do enjoy your work. I love my Meze Classics but I can't see spending 2k on headphones. The LCD2's might be within my reach someday. Great Review! 👍👍👍

      Glad you enjoy the channel content. LCD-2 Closed is a good headphone. I hope you get the opportunity to hear it.

    The Dan Clark Audio E3 is noticably more accurate. 🎧

      I heard the E3 at Axpona and totally agree. I hope to get an E3 in for review.

    V 109? Thanks

    • @TheHonestAudiophile
      @TheHonestAudiophile  2 місяці тому

      I didn't have 109 Pro to compare directly but if my memory serves me correctly the 109 Pro has a wider and deeper stage, more natural tone and timbre, more controlled and less elevated treble.

    GM 😎…they’ve been a hit or miss and quite frankly at $2k US ( $2750 CAD )…I think I’ll pass and save up for the LCD5 or the Meze’ Emp’s 2.0 .
