Pros & Cons
Pros
Schiit lyr twin tube with mullard tubes and the sound is amazing. Boston and fleetwood mac songs sound fantastic! Mid-range is incredible. This is very helpful for studio engineers and recording artists for example.
Cons
The hyped fourth bullet point is the audeze name. It has deceptive marketing, and is not worth the msrp. Hey, it's kind of like this; i won't tell you not to put ketchup on your hotdog if you like it that way.
It has some of the worst soundstage for a planar magnetic i have ever heard. The lcd-1 also has a noticeable bass roll-off; there is very little sub-bass presence.

I noticed vocals, especially female vocal sound more “intimate” with more presence with the audeze lcd-1.
Great sound & quality however seriously lacks bass!
Price
I understand the price may make you nervous if you've never invested in something like this.
Packaging/appearance
It comes with a quality protective case and the packaging is premium.
Received in quality condition and packaging as all my audio equipment so far.
Competitiveness
Compared to my wyze headphones and jbl speaker these truly stand out in sound quality.
The hd 650 is very much a music lover's headphones imho and to that it does a phenomonal job!
The competition planars (including the lcd-1’s bigger brothers) are either too large/heavy/expensive and/or of unreliable quality.
I use a schiit lyr twin tube with mullard tubes and the sound is amazing.

Don’t listen to the “self proclaimed so called experts”

After using the lcd1 headphones for several weeks and listening to familiar selections this is what i found
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
One thing that i don’t like is that audeze uses a proprietary cable for the lcd1 which is available in only one length
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I would like the option of a shorter length
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
They don’t have the biggest soundstage the boomiest base but what they have got is miss and vocals like i personally have never heard
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Edit these are really for solo listening in private
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Being open backed they do leak sound and aren’t appropriate for use in public situations
