Hello Friends,
Every holiday season, we approach our partners and ask if they’d like to do anything special for the Massdrop community. Usually this means more drops for more desirable products at lower prices.
This year, we had a great conversation with our long standing partners at Harman (JBL, AKG, etc) with some exciting results. Through their generosity in the form of a reduced cost, we are able to a new drop on the Massdrop x JBL LSR30X of $179.99 shipped to your door in the continental united states.
The only downside is that we can only offer this on existing units. Future units will have to be sold at the original drop price of $279.99. So once these sell out, the new units go back to $279.99 because JBL can’t give us this lower cost into perpetuity.
Understanding this negatively impacts those who have purchased most recently, Massdrop is refunding the $100 difference to all those who have purchased the LSR30X on or after November 1st 2017. If you purchased the LSR 30X on or after November 1 (in the last 47 days), you’ll receive a $100 partial refund in the days ahead.
Thanks for your interest in this product, and thanks to our partners at Harman for making this holiday surprise possible!
clintbeastThe finish on these is not as durable as the finish on my Estonia grand piano, but dusting won't pose a problem if you use a microfiber duster.
ResurgenceX87Scratching is not the main concern. This kind of finish will easily show fingerprints. Keep a microfiber cloth nearby, as every time you handle these you will want to wipe them clean.
ResurgenceX87I have one (micro fiber cloth) and I do that (whenever I touch them)--and I dust them off on a fairly regular basis too. But once you get them set up, you won't accumulate many additional finger prints. Truthfully, I didn't think I would like that gloss finish, but it kind of grows on you and I don't mind it at all now (sort of a nice break from the Walnut and Cherry finishes of the past). Best part, however, it the sound!
