Condition is listed as good, which makes €60 a strong deal rather than merely fair: it sits below the €81 25th-percentile mark in 68 comparable listings, against a €154 median. For a recognized model with this pricing profile, that is attractive money, assuming the description is accurate and the speaker is fully functional.
The Mythos Center 1 is a substantial German-made, two-way bass-reflex centre from roughly 1998–2002, using dual 13 cm drivers, a silk-dome tweeter, and sturdy gold-plated terminals. It offers good dialogue scale and useful output for a vintage home-cinema system, especially if you already run matching Mythos speakers. Before buying, confirm both drivers and the tweeter play cleanly, check that the grille and terminals are present, and verify the cabinet has no swelling or impact damage. At €60, even minor cosmetic wear is easy to forgive.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
HECO traces its roots to 1949, when Gerhard Richard Hennel and his wife Susanne founded Hennel & Co. KG in the German Taunus region town of Schmitten. Initially focused on manufacturing speaker chassis and baskets for cinemas and restaurants, the family business quickly pivoted to high-quality home audio, producing its first series-production speaker chassis in 1950 and the legendary compact B130 model by 1964. This heritage of German engineering precision has defined HECO for over seven decades, evolving through innovations like the 1951 Orchester Type C16 and early multichannel speaker sets.
The brand specializes in premium loudspeakers, with iconic series such as Superior (1987), Concerto Grosso, and Celan (launched 2005 and continually refined) anchoring its reputation. HECO has occasionally ventured into car audio with lines like Sprint and Turbo amplifiers in the 1990s, but its core strength remains floorstanding, bookshelf, and compact home speakers renowned for balanced, dynamic sound. Ambitious designs prioritize music reproduction in domestic settings, blending tradition with modern materials.
Positioned as a mid-to-high-end contender, HECO commands respect among discerning hi-fi enthusiasts for exceptional price-to-performance ratios, numerous test victories, and enduring series that rival pricier rivals. No longer a small family operation but part of Audio-Produkte GmbH, it sustains innovative momentum, delivering "true sound" that appeals to knowledgeable buyers seeking reliable German quality without ultra-boutique excess.
