Pre-FAZOR, LCD-2 had the best bass of any open headphones, extending below 20hz, with ample slam and rumble.
Also, youโre missing the point with these headphones (correct me if Iโm wrong).
Those have HUGE planar magnetic drivers, theyโre properly engineered, and thus for years had industry-leading low harmonic distortion, especially in middle range. That allows accurate vocals and instruments representation and zero audible distortion at ANY volume. Thereโs something wrong with your measurements.
Their main flaw is a big dip at 8Khz frequency response curve that affects imaging and airiness.
Update: Weโve added a comparison between these headphones and the Audeze MM-100 in Style.
