A young white woman with blonde hair is singing into a microphone while wearing Audeze LCD-S20 over-ear headphones.
Quick Summary

Audeze's new LCD-S20 headphones are incredibly affordable compared to the firm's other premium planar magnetic headphones.

You'll be able to snag them for just £499 / $499.

Audeze make some great premium planar magnetic headphones, but unfortunately they're also rather expensive – so the arrival of the LCD-S20 headphones at £499 / $499 is a very big deal. The same firm's LCD-X open-back planar headphones are more than twice that price, and some of Audeze's flagship models are seven or eight times more expensive than the LCD-S20.
