Anyone have more info or a picuture of the LFM-1 B stock's selling for 399... I wonder if Scott would be so kind as to post some pictures... I also wonder how many there are in stock?

Thanks,

Justin

From the B-stock ordering page:

B-Stock LFM-1 (shipping the week of May 9th) B-Stock LFM-1 (cosmetic reject)* $399.00

*The LFM-1 B-stock units contain a raised plexi top as opposed to our standard design with recessed plexi.

It's exactly as noted, I saw one at the HE Show. THe only difference is a slightly raised plexi glass... at this price it's a steal.

Outlaw B-stock is typically returned product (either refurbished problem units or units returned during the 30-day trial period), and usually is free of defects. This particular batch apparently has the top surface somewhat higher than the lip. Check out the gallery for some pictures of it.

I think jprichar wanted to see pictures of the cosmetic defect model.

My only concern would be whether or not the seal of the plexi to the cabinet would be as tight and good as the usual inset plexi would be, especially since apparently the defect here is a piece of plexi that didn't really fit the cabinet. Was the too-big piece of plexi just "glued on" to the top? Etc...

(double post)

I don't think the plexiglas is a "window" I think its an inlay. I would think under extreme conditions and vibration the plexiglas would not make a great sidewall for a sub. I probably is more for looks than anything else..

Since these things are manufactured in a foreign country and there is great chance for communications issues, it was probably just a manufacturing flaw.

Yes, I'd like to see a picture of these "cosmetic defect" LFM's with the raised plexiglass top... It would be great if Outlaw would post some. Or if a member who has already got one would post a picture or two. Thanks guys!

I will post pictures of mine when it shows up Friday, but I believe a few early order folks are due to receive theirs on Wednesday.

I also ordered a b-stock last Monday. I was told they would be shipping on the 9th or 10th, however, I have not received mine yet either. I was talking to an Outlaw rep who had seen one of the b-stocks with the raised panel and he said that they had one at a recent show and many people preferred it over the perfect one. I too was concerned about the structural integrity.What if the enclosure blew out? He asured me that would not happen. I know it carries the same warranty as a new one. I own a VTF3-MK2 and I can't wait to compare and contrast the two! As soon as it gets here I too will send some pics.

Michael,

That will be great to hear about the comparison test! The structural integrity will NOT be affected by the b-stock plexiglass. The box has its own MDF top panel, and the plexi is just for looks.
