Audeze is definitely my Kryptonite. Yes I only have LCD2s and for the last 5 years I have avoided testing any others, this way I can be "sure" I don't need them (well that is what my wife tells me I think).

I should warn you my wife loves murder mysteries, or as she calls it inspirational guidance, and she can read minds. I do confess I have considered selling my speakers and looking at something like this as we moved to an apartment and apparently my motto of my neighbour's will listen to good music whether they want to or not, is not universally supported.
