Audeze LCD-3 with Cardas Clear Cable, Very Lightly Used

Barely used LCD-3's with Cardas Clear Cable. Probably about 5 hours of actually wearing them and about 30 hours of running for break-in. They probably need a good 100 hours for proper break in. I am original owner. These come with a beautiful black lacquer case that is very impressive (not the Pelican travel case). These perform wonderfully and there are no issues with them. I just have an audio addiction and too much stuff in my listening room. I have decided to thin out a bit. I have a headphone amp for sale in a seperate ad that also pairs nicely with these. 
Headphones New - $1,945.00 Cardas Cable New - $600.00
This package is a steal at $1,45.00. I believe I priced fairly.   I will pay shipping at asking price.   

Note: This unit includes fazors, but does not include the 2016 driver revisions.

Audeze LCD-3 Planar Magnetic Headphones

No Headphones Come Closer to Capturing the Stunning Dynamics of
Live Music: Premium U.S.A.-Made Audeze LCD-3 Sounds Authoritative, Definitive,
Open, Spacious, and Soulful, 

We've
never heard any headphones come closer to
capturing the realistic dynamics of live music than the Audeze LCD-3. They're expensive, yes. But if you spend
a lot of time with ear cups molded to your ears, you need to ear what you have
been missing. Built to the most exacting standards in the U.S., these planar
magnetic beauties will change the way you listen to music. A proprietary
thin-film diaphragm is housed between a unique super-efficient push-pull
magnetic structure to produce incredibly fast, detailed sound. Audeze's manufacturing process, combined with advanced
materials and technology, yield extreme accuracy and vibrant fidelity. LCD-3's earcups are made of precision-crafted,
hand-selected Zebra Wood (Zebrano). The sloped ear pads are made of premium
lambskin leather, with specially molded foam to offer just the right amount of
firmness. Trust us: Don't audition the LCD-3 if you
don't plan on keeping them! 

"Greatness
is apparent straight from the off. Delivers a scale and authority of sound we
didn't think headphones could ever manage. A rich, vibrant sound." 

– What Hi-Fi?, five-star review 

Traditional planar magnetic speakers are designed with
conductive traces (voice coil) spread across the surface of a thin diaphragm.
This diaphragm is in turn held in an even magnetic field by strong neodymium
magnets. When current flows through the voice coil, the magnetic field causes
the diaphragm to vibrate. Audeze's research in fundamental driver design
improves the basic planar technology with several proprietary materials and
process techniques that deliver remarkable improvements.

"An
abject lesson in how good headphone bass can be when the response is flat to
below audibility, and the distortion vanishingly small."

 Hi-Fi News, Outstanding Product review

Most planar-magnetic speakers use Mylar (PET) diaphragm with
aluminum traces. Audeze transducers use new materials that offer substantial
improvements for both diaphragm and traces. Audeze's proprietary Lotus
diaphragm is capable of handling maximum continuous operating temperatures of over
400° F. This gives the drivers a smooth, resonance-free frequency response,
excellent internal damping, edge damping, very low distortion and extremely
fast transient response. In addition, the Audeze transducers are very versatile
and efficient, so they pair well with a wide variety of amplifiers.

"I
have never heard a set of headphones that got even remotely close to the sound
of live music the way this one does...The LCD-3's dynamic punch is simply the
best I've heard, bass definition and power are phenomenal, stereo imaging is
remarkably open and spacious. No dynamic headphone at any price comes close to
the LCD-3's sound."
