Audeze LCD-S20 Closed-Back Planar Headphone

Audeze LCD-S20 closed-back planar magnetic headphones

The Audeze LCD-S20 is a professional closed-back planar magnetic headphone engineered for studio monitoring, tracking, recording, and private high-fidelity listening. As the first planar headphone to feature Audeze’s patent-pending SLAM acoustic technology, the LCD-S20 delivers enhanced bass response, improved spatial imaging, and precise transient performance while maintaining low distortion and accurate tonal balance.

Designed for professional audio workflows, the closed-back earcup architecture provides effective passive noise isolation to reduce external interference and prevent microphone bleed during recording sessions. The planar magnetic drivers offer fast impulse response and highly accurate timing reproduction, helping musicians and engineers maintain precision during tracking and monitoring applications.

The LCD-S20 incorporates advanced Audeze technologies including Fluxor magnet arrays, Fazor phase management, and ultra-thin Uniforce diaphragms for improved efficiency, clarity, and spatial detail. The SLAM acoustic management system enhances low-frequency impact and depth while preserving clean, controlled bass performance even at high listening levels.

Constructed using premium magnesium, aluminum, and steel components, the headphone is designed for long-term durability in professional environments. Magnetically attached gel-filled earpads allow quick replacement and improved comfort during extended sessions, while the adjustable leather suspension headband distributes weight evenly for reduced listening fatigue.

With high-efficiency 18-ohm drivers, the LCD-S20 performs effectively with audio interfaces, mixers, laptops, and portable devices. The dual-sided cable connectivity design provides flexible studio integration, making the LCD-S20 a versatile solution for professional production environments and personal reference listening.
