Gallo Acoustics Reference III vs. Hyperion HPS-938


Has anyone had a chance to compare these two? A friend of mine is looking at new floorstanders and these are my recommendations because they seem to be comparable in the following areas:
-New technology that works
-Reasonable prices: Gallo's are $3,600 with BAM, Hyperion's are $4,000
-Relatively full range, especially the Gallo's with BAM producing low 22Hz-25Hz
-Relatively compact in size
-Relatively easy to drive
-Good to great workmanship

In the case of the Gallo's, there will be a matching center released in 2005 in case my friend decides to go 3.0 to 5.1 Multi-Channel in the future.

What are your thoughts? Thanks.

I read through the article fairly quickly and its sometimes difficult to read Srajan's reviews, he wasn't exactly clear on which speaker he prefer, he thought the Hyperions bass was better but like the Gallo's in all the other areas?
