Audeze LCD-MX4 Over-ear Headphones - Planar Magnetic Studio Reference
Overview
The Audeze LCD-MX4 is an open-back, planar magnetic headphone built for studio mixing and mastering. It pairs a 106mm ultra-thin Uniforce diaphragm with a Double Fluxor magnet array rated at 1.5 Tesla, giving it very low distortion and tightly controlled bass. At just 20 ohms and 105 dB sensitivity, it's the most sensitive LCD model Audeze makes, running well straight out of an audio interface, mixer, or laptop headphone jack without a dedicated amplifier.
It's built on a lightweight magnesium chassis with a carbon fiber suspension headband, designed with feedback from professional engineers to prevent listening fatigue over long sessions.
Simcoe Audio Video Insight
Studio engineers reach for the MX4 when they need to trust what they're hearing without relying on a fully treated room. Its low impedance means you can plug it into almost anything and still get an accurate picture of your mix.

Why the Audeze LCD-MX4 Stands Out
Double Fluxor Magnetic Array
A 1.5 Tesla flux density, the most powerful magnetic circuit Audeze has built into a headphone, drives the diaphragm evenly for precise, well-controlled bass response.
Uniforce Voice Coil
Spreads the driving force evenly across the diaphragm for accurate detail retrieval and low distortion.
Low Impedance Design
At 20 ohms and 105 dB sensitivity, it's the easiest LCD model to drive without a dedicated amplifier.
Lightweight Magnesium and Carbon Fiber Build
A magnesium chassis and carbon fiber suspension headband keep long mixing sessions comfortable.
OCC Copper Cable
Ships with a 1.9m single-ended 1/4" cable using 20 AWG high-purity OCC copper wire.
Buyer's Guide
Who It's For
- Home studio producers: anyone mixing or mastering without a fully treated room.
- Working engineers: professionals who need a headphone they can trust to translate across systems.
- Streamers and content creators: anyone monitoring audio directly from an interface or mixer without extra gear.
How It Compares
The MX4 is built for accuracy and easy driving rather than maximum scale, so if you want Audeze's most resolving open-back model regardless of how much amplifier it needs, the LCD-3 is worth a look.
