They make great gear. Not sure why anyone would dislike anything they make.
On a only slightly related note, I just notice Focal's prices have really seemed to spike. Like to ridiculous levels. Certain component sets are about 80-90% more than I remember them being. Jesus. Their equipment isn't THAT good. Nobody's component set warrants 900 friggin dollars.

Popularity of brand name means nothing. My component speakers are made by Adire Audio. A tiny high quality manufacturer that couldn't make ends meet and went out of business ~late 06. They're fantastic speakers. And yet, I've seen more Jenson brand crap come into my shop than anything else. Much more well known. They haven't made a quality piece of equipment since the dawn of time.
I wouldn't hesitate running CDT's equipment myself. They do seem to sell a lot of B-stock/refurb items to the market. That's something most company's don't do. They claim the colors of the basket may be mismatched or maybe there's a scratch on it somewhere. Nothing is suppose to affect performance in anyway. Here's your subwoofer for example. Direct from CDT.

Yeah I've seen them offer B-stocks to the public for years. Don't think they always had their own store through their website though. cbrtsereo.com used to sell the B-stocks for them, but they went out of business a few years ago. Used to get killer deals on component sets. Looks like you can get them direct from CDT now for about the same price I've seen them at.
