Looking at their site, I'd say it was probably a scam.

Here's one link, but there are hundreds of places on the web and thousands of postings in newsgroups.

Hmmm. Take a look at the subwoofer on that website. Looks surprisingly similar to the Hsu VTF-2 (probably an older release).
Pay special attention to the specs on the Cypress page and compare them to bullets 3 - 6 on the Hsu page.

Sure does look similar. That's too funny.

I e-mailed Dr. Hsu the links, just in case.

That is a scam.My brother in law got taken on that one a couple of years ago.He thought he got a pair of $1500 speakers for $400.They were a piece of s**t.That one has been around the Chicago area for quit some time. BEWARE!!!!!
