EdoSusanto Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Hi guys, I'm newbie in this forum and pretty new to the headphones world. I just bought Audeze LCD2C couple days ago. I love it but my only complain is the weight, its damn too heavy. Is anyone have any idea modification to make it little bit comfortable? Otherwise I might to sell the Audeze and get H660s instead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sime Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 The best modification apart from the carbon fiber headband is to simply get used to the weight, sad but true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked the fiber headband and it cost $200 on Audeze website and maybe US dollars. Yeah probs gonna try to get used to it first. 14 minutes ago, mloutfie said: A padded headband might help Will take your idea after trying get used to the weight for a week.

Guest Sime Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Count yourself lucky you didn’t buy the LCD-X’s, heavier than the LCD2’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I own few gaming headset steelseries and sennheiser also few earphones. This is my first headphone. 1 hour ago, Sime said: Count yourself lucky you didn’t buy the LCD-X’s, heavier than the LCD2’s. Wow, heavier than this? Don't want even think about it. After I did some browsing I found Lohb suspension strap. Read some good reviews from other forums. Would this solve my problem? Please if anyone have experienced with this strap, I would like to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sime Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 (edited) But you want lighter headphones, the band has nothing to do with being an audiophile. Edited March 7, 2018 by Sime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it would... not for the LCD2C anyway... the LCD4 headband is similar in design to the headband on the LCD2C where it already has a suspension strap. The Lohb strap was made to basically do the same thing (before Audeze decided to do it). See pictures below to compare. First is the LCD4 carbon fibre suspension headband. Second is the LCD2C plastic/leather suspension headband. Third is the stock suspension-less LCD2/LCD3/LCDX headband. Fourth is the stock LCD2 headband with the Lohb Suspension Strap. ----------------------------------------------------- For reference, this is the carbon fibre LCD4 headband, with its suspension strap. .... which in design is quite similar to the LCD2C headband, with it's suspension strap from factory: .... this is a normal LCD2 headband (notice it has no suspension strap) (note that the stock LCD2/LCD3/LCDX headband is different in design to the LCD2C/LCD4): ... and this is a normal LCD2 (not LCD2C) with the Lobh strap: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, thanks for the info. After 2 weeks I realized that the problem was more to the clamping than the weight. Someone told me to wear it on loosest position that I'm comfortable with and feel much better since I did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't mind me asking did you get this directly from audeze? and if so how long did it take to get to aus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
