How good are these speakers?

My aunt gave them to me a while ago, told me that my uncle bought them in Germany.

They're Pioneer HPM-40s and I'd imagine them to be pretty old, but they were free

My question is, for anyone thats listened to them, how do they compare to ~$200 stereo speakers of today? The only other speakers I tested them against was the Fluance home theater setup next to the family television and to be honest, it sounded at least as good as the Fluances were.

i've never heard them, but i have heard HPM-100s, which are really, really nice. and even better when you have a sansui or sx-1080 driving them.

So you don't think upgrading them would be as good of an idea as say, building a Gainclone?
