In Reply to: Refurb horror stories? posted by Mark from E.C. on May 01, 1999 at 15:35:47:
I've always had good luck with refurbs and used equipment, I've saved alot of money that way. Normally refurb equip comes with at least some kind of warrantee, you should be alright.
i've bought several infinity/other products from ubid. with (2) sets of infinity speakers being " refurbed ". both arrived in " new " appearance and condition and are working great. i talked to a tech rep at infinity and was advised that ubid. buys much of infinity's backlog/discontinued products. the refurbs tend to be factory demos/displays , as most electronic stores sell their equipment as demo's. they sell these to ubid. as refurb's as they sell them cheap and with a warranty of generally (1) year vs. (5) yrs. for new products. most electronics are " generally " trouble free with speakers being pretty reliable. i have no problem with refurbs as they are for the most part new equipment which was used as display items - most are hardly used. i don't think you have much to worry about. happy listening
I hope it works out. I have an Onkyo A-803, it's just a small integrated amp, but it has a nice sweet sound. I hope their newer stuff is on the same level. Thanks for the reassurance. All i've learned here about high-end home theater is it's WAY out of my price range. I mean 3500 for speakers? ouch!
