Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Noire vs Audeze LCD-S20

The Audeze LCD-S20 and the Dan Clark Audio AEON 2 Noire are both closed-back, audiophile headphones equipped with planar magnetic drivers. Perhaps the biggest difference between them is in their frequency response. The Dan Clark have an excited sound that boosts the treble and bass ranges, while the Audeze rolls off a bit of low-end and quite a lot of treble, for a darker sound. Both headphones suffer from poor frequency response consistency, meaning they're highly sensitive to placement and anatomy, but the Audeze's response has fewer deviations from their sound profile. They're also more comfortable. The Dan Clark come with a nicer case, though, as well as tuning pads you can use to subtly alter the sound.
