Thanks for the info. I guess "junk" was a little harsh, I didn't really expect them to be bad speakers. I didn't even realize that they were brand new and still in the boxes, so for about $500 delivered I probably will not be disappointed.
Anyone know anything about Counterpoint speakers?
I just bought a pair of Counterpoint speakers on Ebay. The system consists of a pair of Carlsbad subwoofers (12")that act as stands for a smaller speaker (the Orpheum). The ad states that the system retailed for $2000, but there is not much more info. I decided to take the chance since I have been pleased with other Counterpoint products in the past, but I have only owned the tube gear (amps and preamps). I didn't even know they had ever made speakers. I paid $405 for the system - did I buy some junk that was put out right before they went under or did I get a decent pair of speakers? Any opinions or info would be appreciated. Thanks.
