LCD-X is easily my favourite of the big four (HD800s, Clear, Arya), but only when EQ'd (Oratory1990's preset). Best value and the only one that can do serious bass and have least weaknesses left after EQ. That said I prefer HE6se V2 over them.

haven't heard HE6se v2 yet, how does the bass compare? I've heard that one is easily Hifiman's best for bass

The bass, when EQ'd, on the LCD-X is this heavy deep big club kind of sound that doesn't particularly lack detail, but is a bit slower than could be. The HE6se V2 doesn't lose in any aspect and it's extremely fast and detailed. The best I've heard. In many ways better than LCD-5 which has gorgeous and effortless, but not as technical bass.
