Hsu Research and BIC combined their resources
to produce a new home-theater speaker system made up of four very small satellite
speakers, a center-channel speaker, and a subwoofer derived from Hsu Research's VTF-2.
Driving this impressive prototype system was a $200 Pioneer receiver "from
Costco," a $90 Sony CD carousel player, and a $150 Pioneer DVD player. The sound was
surprisingly coherent, with tight bass reaching a claimed 25Hz at high volume levels. The
expected price of this system? $699.
