Headphone manufacturer Audeze, from California, USA, demonstrated its product range at CanJam Munich. Among the products on display were the LCDi4 and a prototype of the Mobius.
The LCDi4 is a planar magnetic in-ear headphone. Despite its unusual shape it's quite comfortable to wear. Its sound is wonderfully dynamic and seamless, from the deep, tight base through the midrange to the sparking treble.
