Link was in PR email from Audeze. Hot off the press so it might not have been made it active yet? The package is $2500 and limited to 67 units. I guess these will get snapped up before anyone has a change to demo them. Would be good if The Shiitr got a few units to sell, so those of us who are local could hear the pairing.
On Audeze's FAQ on Head-Fi:
"What's so special about the drivers?
We refer to the LCD-R as a Ribbon instead of Planar due to the very low impedance voice coil and the trace covers over 98% of the surface. They use just one trace with parallel sub-traces to equalize the driving force across the entire diaphragm. The sound profile that results is ultra smooth with low distortion and high detail retrieval."
@rhythmdevils Audeze sent a PR email about this at around midnight, but the buy it now link wasn't working. I searched and didn't see any mention of this on SBAF, so assumed I broke the news? At some point they fixed the link (I'm guessing super early in the morning PST), and were sold out within 1 hour.
@rhythmdevils They might not be anything special, and you'd have dodged a bullet. Everyone has bought these blind. It would've been nice if they offered up a few units to be demoed somewhere first, but I guess they didn't have to.
