Sherwood Tower Speakers - $800
http://houston.craigslist.org/ele/4553715159.html

They're gorgeous.
I know sherwood makes decent receivers and components for other brands. I know the speakers are only available over seas in Australia and other countries. Hardly anything is known here in the states.
I have read they are decent speakers to they are great value speakers & a few they're junkreviews.

Problem is...I can't seem to find these specific towers. The seller says he got them in Dubai where they are really popular. He gave me model numbers sp8300 & sp3600. Claims they sound amazing and uses a def tech mythos 10 cc for timber matching. He also claims they were 2 grand a speaker and 200 watt per channel speaker and the cabinets alone are worth 3x his asking price...

Scary to even consider a speaker I can't find replacement parts for let alone the specs.

I need y'all. I'm so curious. I need to know about these speakers.

Thank you!

The mere mention of Dubai, the scam capital of the world makes me cringe. Also, the term "200 watt speakers". That is a term that guys in white vans use. Speakers don't have watts. I think it sounds suspicious, even though they look interesting cosmetically. Remember, when these cheap speakers are made, looks is a big part of getting people to but them. Also, I never have known Sherwood to be an audiophile grade name in many years. Proceed with caution.
If you can listen to them on a decent system, I would give it a try. The price is right if they turn out to be good.
