I am seeing the refurbished titanium ones still available for $999. That's actually the color I tested from BB, it's quite nice in person!That is great to hear!
I have occasionally heard the the LS50 Meta's are neutral to a fault, and as such aren't very "exciting" and can become boring to listen to, but I ave also heard that the Rangarok 2 amps produces a very dynamic sound that compensates for this and brings the LS50 Meta's to life.
I am monitoring Accessories4less now for the black ones and may pounce when they come back in stock (though for some reason they just went up in price :/ )
