Is this an excellent value?

I happened to come across this listing by chance!

This appears to be an excellent value.

Two mono SET 845 25W amplifiers and Pre amplifier at 2551$.

It also can be wired for 120V power.


But I had never heard of company called "Yaqin "before.

What is your opinion on this combo?


The specs are as follows.

"Get a pair of Heresy's. Efficiency 99db at 1 watt!" 

They are rated at 96db 1 watt/4 feet, and Klipsch is well known for their rating's being rather uhh, well, optimistic we'll say. 

But they are very efficient. None the less. I like my Klipsch speakers. I have at least a couple in my pile, but I take their frequency response (at both ends), and sensitivity specs with a grain of salt.
