I may pull the trigger on the elites too. They sound awesome!

The LCD-X really is great. Definitely not for everyone due to their analytical signature. It becomes way more coherent once you eq though. From what I’ve read and experienced they’re some of the best responding headphones to a proper eq curve.

yeah.

I laid it out for myself: LCD-X is a great musical headphone compared to the 800s, clears, and aeon2s.

And if I wanted to be reasonable with the money, LCD-X is the right choice.

Elites, however, are also not for everyone, since they prioritize fun and musicality over the accuracy of reproduction and other technicalities. But, if the Elite fit your sounds preferences they do become worth the asking price.

all opinions are of course based on my own listening experience so opinions may vary, quite a bit.
