They'll likely just swap out both drivers for some brand new units, they did for me last month
Thanks!! I feel a little better,I will call them tomorrow if they are open.Kind of strange timing,but hopefully they can make er good as new
Hopefully these phones will last a long time as the prices for the LCD3s have now gone to $2900. I just don't think I am going to pay that much and would probably look into some magnepans with a full dac/amp for speaker setup at that point. Having said that mine have hundreds of hours listening time on them and they sound awesome. Will they still replace the drivers if outside of the warranty period? If not, I will have a decision to make.
At what point does the price become a deterrent to purchase? At $3000, the Stax equipment starts to look like a viable alternative or a nice speaker/dac/amp system... Opinions?
They're still listed at their original price on the Audeze website ($1945):

Hello dear LCD-3 owners,
I thought I'd just share with you some nice and gorgeous sounding music I've recently discovered:
AlunaGeorge - Body Music
Disclosure - Settle
I'll let you have a listen instead of trying and describing these with words. If you want a quick overview you can just listen to these two songs:
AlunaGeorge: You Know You Like It (track #2)
Disclosure: White Noise (track #5)
I enjoy lots of musical styles, and I enjoyed those two particular albums because their sound is quite enjoyable on the LCD-3 with their yummy and accurate bass sound.
I hope it will be enjoyed by someone else as well

I hope you are not prescient here. With the X and XC priced where they are, Audez'e may revamp the 3 completely, sell it as a new top end north of $2,000- 2500 maybe ?
And offer free upgrade to current LCD-3 owners
