The new closed-back LCD-S20 headphone is Audeze's first planar headphone with the patent-pending SLAM technology for powerful bass reproduction and improved spatial imaging, as well as a new magnetic earpad attachment system.
SLAM, short for "Symmetric Linear Acoustic Modulator," is a new, patent-pending technology introduced in late 2024 with our flagship CRBN2 headphone.
The LCD-S20 is the most affordable headphone in the LCD series, opening up new possibilities for aspiring producers, musicians, and audiophiles who require acoustic isolation to access studio-quality sound.
As closed-back headphones, they are ideal for recording in the studio. The superior impulse response of the planar magnetic drivers means you can clearly perceive the timing of the click track or snare drum to stay in sync. The excellent passive noise cancellation prevents microphone bleed and protects hearing.
