I can speak with a bit of authority regarding the HC-6 speaker system. I sell them.
They have a beautiful finish and the satelites do a fine job for video surround. The subwoofer bass is a bit weak though. Either the amplifier or the woofer is not very well damped, making the driver bottom out and distort sooner than other powered sub systems in this price range.
As far as music playback goes, they suffer. Honest opinion.
Sleaze factor aside, (bear in mind, the dealer EXISTS due to margin) They are tagged generally at $699.00, and can be purchased usually in the mid $500.00's. Frankly though, I hope and pray that they go to a uniform price policy such as Bose, Polk and many other manufacturers, giving the dealer a reasonable margin in the dwindling profits being had in home electronics.
