    How can markbass sell the new tte500 for the same price as the lm3? It seems like the box itself, let alone the tube preamp, compressor, etc. would raise the price substantially. I am not complaining as i own an lm2, lm3 and a tte500.

    Perhaps they are built by child labor?

    That would makes sense. They can get their little hands in there for assembling.

    Maybe it’s a limited time promotional marketing offer, or maybe they’re going to discontinue it, or may be just because they can? I don't understand why you'd be so happy about the value of your tte500 dropping? :confused:

    According to MF, the TTE 500 is $190 more than the LMIII.
