I suspect, just guessing, that we're not reading about Audeze interviewing or surveying the customers who have had driver failures because they already know precisely why the drivers are failing. Their warranty already gives them an "out" should they find evidence of abuse, but I've not read of anyone being challenged on that condition, either. The driver failures are being "processed" without resistance by Audeze.
This leads me to conjecture that Audeze has already determined that there is no affordable, permanent fix for the LCD-3, by nature of its design. They are no doubt far more miserable, swimming in this whirlpool of failures than any one customer could be. Again, I'm only conjecturing, but I suspect they will be rolling out a new model eventually, with a design that completely abandons use of the component(s) that have been failing in the LCD-3.
Meanwhile, except for reimbursing shipping costs, which would benefit the overseas customers, especially (but is not commonly offered for RMAs), Audeze has bent over backwards to do everything possible to guarantee customer satisfaction. It's obvious to me that they want to retain customer loyalty, and Duke40's testimony of five driver failures, combined with his recent decision to get an LCD-X, shows me that Audeze has been handling this very well.
Having owned a flawless LCD-2 rev.1 for nearly four and a half years, I am a big fan of Audeze, but I don't feel I'm revealing any bias when I predict they will survive this, thanks to how well they are treating their customers - well enough to retain customer loyalty, for sure.
