Can anyone tell me???

199.170.56.10

Why center channel speakers tend to be so expensive? Case in point: I am looking to complete my home theater system with a KEF Q95C to match my Q15s. The Q15s retail for $350 a pair, while the Q95C center channel is $315. That's almost the same price for one loudspeaker featuring one Uni-Q driver integrating mid-bass unit and tweeter, as opposed to the pair that collectively features:

-2 Uni-Q drivers
-2 crossovers
-2 sets of biwirable binding posts
-2 cabinets
-Extra weight & size for shipping

What gives???
