Nothing personally against this deal but RRP of $1400 in aus MSRP OF $300 in USA.
I think you'll find this is $200 per speaker, not $200 for the pair.
yea i thought that too, but in their main web page it said sold as a pair
Cheers. Just spotted that. Wonder what they exactly mean by 'refurb'. Looks like a great deal on the surface.
usually consumer speakers comes in pairs.. only pro monitors are sold in singles
If I was looking for cheap speakers I would buy them for $200 can't go wrong at that price, especially for floorstanding speakers. These speakers are used in some of Yamaha's 5.1 receiver and speaker packs, the combo's sell for $1500 to $2000 at various stores incl. HN & TGG
Tempted to switch out my old series iv bose 201 s for these. Thoughts ozbaudiophiles?
Any time you can replace Bose speakers with anything - do it!
Yes, Bose is rubbish compared to even half decent component systems.
Fairly predicable bose response, I'd more say overpriced rubbish. Bear in mind these are 1997 bose models too.
Dang, that didn't make much sense. Overpriced rather than rubbish is what I meant
Please put "speakers" in the title, as not everyone recognises the model number.
Not sure about refurbished speakers myself, but at least they are very cheap.
