The RP-280FA are not really "entry" level but not TOL either. They are a "fancier" version of the RP-280F with real wood veneer and an up firing Atmos module built in. They are actually quite nice speakers. I also doubt they have been counterfeited but examine thoroughly before buying. They are currently being sold for $799.00 EACH so your deal may just be a good one.
