HC-1 Horn Center Channel

[goeat]

Has anyone heard anything about this center (hsuresearch.com)? I have their STF-1 and absolutely love it, and I've heard their old ventriloquist system (non-horn-based) and enjoyed it immensely. I'd be matching it with a pair of Axiom M22Ti's (axiomaudio.com) and powering it off of an AudioSource 5.1a (************.com) (70w/ch @8).

FWIW I'm comparing it against Elemental Design's M6 5T5 MTM (edesignaudio.com) and (currently our of my price range) Axiom's VP-100 (axiomaudio.com)

Any insight or opinions would be greatly appreciated!

It's just so much easier to timber match your front three if you get a set. Why not match the Hsu HC-1 with Hsu HB-1's?

If you like the m22's I strongly suggest you stay with a speaker from the same manufacturer as a center, at least for the front three. Even if it means saving up a couple more months. Another thing is that Axiom has a factory outlet where you can get their speakers for a bit less. Check it out. http://axiomaudio.com/factoryoutlet.html. All the reports I have heard say that people can't tell that they were "b-stock."
