[QUOTE="gLer, post: 876541, member: 19111"] The LCD-2F is definitely a keeper and one of the best ?value? higher end headphones South African money can buy. Yes there are better headphones still, but you?ll be paying upward of R20k to get them. My advice is twofold: either get a pair with the new suspension headband (or Lohb strap), or buy one of those with your pair. The weight of the headphones isn?t an issue, but the thin stock headband puts undue pressure on the top of your head, so if like most people you?re susceptible to hotspots, they become uncomfortable after a while. Second, try get a pair with newer (2016 or later) drivers. Not only are these far more reliable than the older drivers, that were prone to sudden failure (and a $400 repair bill excluding shipping back to Audeze), they also sound better and aren?t as dark as the old fazors. This is all coming from my own experience of using the LCD-2F extensively. Never heard the Sundara but I?m not a fan of anything Hifiman. [/QUOTE]
