It seems like the gloss finish is adding to the cost of these speakers. Honestly, as much as I value aesthetics, I would never pay a premium on audio equipment for just aesthetic improvements. Are these exactly the same as regular LSR305s? If so, I think Massdrop has really made a mistake with this one. The whole purpose of these deals with the manufacturers (in my opinion) was to obtain lower prices on quality products.
Although I find the piano finish nice, it will be a fingerprint and dust magnet, which sucks.
Also can you detach the rubber feet if you want? If I plan to mount these on my walls I don't want the feet showing up.
