The build quality alone speaks volumes. I still have my pair in use to this day in 2008.
 
No failure, all surrounds flawless and incredible sound. That was HECO quality.
 
Absolutely no comparison to what is sold today by an import company (which only bought the brand name) under the name HECO. There are worlds in between.

== Reviews ==
 
Absolutely clean, differentiated highs and mids. Fantastically punchy and dry bass - the additional purchase of a subwoofer is absolutely unnecessary!!!
 
Compared the Heco with my new Kanton Ergo 902DC. Result: the bass seems to be deeper with the "old" Heco, otherwise both speakers have a comparable great sound but with a slight advantage for the Heco 950. The Heco is audibly more differentiated, especially with classical music! Apparently there is no more progress in loudspeaker design - or is it because of the lower prices?
