What would be a good match against LCD-X 2021? Similar price or less. Open or closed.
I don’t know what LCD-X sounds like yet, so I can’t say what I’d change about it… The natural(or perhaps extra-natural) spatial presentation of HD800S/Arya Stealth sounds appealing. But I also want more bass, warmth & smoothness(=Enjoyability 
) than Edition XS/Arya offers, I think. I can’t think of much out there… (other than maybe ZMF Auteur Classic, which isn’t out yet, and takes too long to order)
- WP900 …? (seems nice, more bass than AWAS. no idea about imaging & stage depth)
- AWAS …? (seems great, except not much bass)
-
AEON 2 NOIRE …? (too damped sounding(Beyer?
), and bass light?) - M1570 …? (more bass & weight than X, inferior SQ, but possibly more enjoyable & smoother?)
- LCD-2C …? (more bass & smoothness than X, but heavier and inferior SQ?)
Not interested in Denon/Fostex/Focal/HiFiMans/Beyers. Have a ModHouse Argon incoming.
