Roland R-88 got a *massive* price drop! (fierce F8 competition?)

IronFilm

For those looking at an alternative to the Zoom F8, I noticed that B&H has a "New Arrival", refurbished Rolland R-88 units selling at nearly half their launch price (I guess Zoom is providing some serious pricing pressure! They might even be new units, and only "refurbished" in name only?!):

Good price--note the digital I/O. But the latest Tascam has a more up to date preamp design. Still, 8 channels....

IronFilm

For the next four days, the Roland R-88 is on sale again, for US$795 @ B&H (not "refurbished", brand new):

Most frequently it is seller who do this.

IronFilm

Yeah but often many companies (such as Nikon just to name one of many!) will sell brand new items as "refurbished" as a way to shift some stock at a lower price.

Fully new units are still $1,995.
