5 out of 5 stars Sharp looking--great sound.   September 19, 2008
E. Lyons (Palm Harbor, FL USA)
The Athena WS-100 floorstanding speakers are a great product and the fact that they are relatively inexpensive makes them a tremendous value. I have three pair of the WS-100, grouped with the WS-60 center speaker, the AS-P4000 subwoofer and an Onkyo TX-NR905 receiver and the sound produced is outstanding. The speakers provide a full-range of sound--clean highs and rich lows. I highly recommend the product.

These Athena speakers are great as front speakers in a surround system. I am using them with a Harmon Kardon surround system, similar to the Bose Acoustimass, which utilitzes subwoofer and small surround speakers. Compared to larger speakers, these look great and perform wonderfully.


4 out of 5 stars Good Sound and Clean Lines   December 9, 2007

I've had these for a couple years now and use them for my livingroom stereo. They are clean and bright with great sound, although the mid sound is a little flat. Definately need a sub to extend these to lower sounds.

Overall I like these although they lack warm sound in the mid and low end. If you like clear music without heavy resonation they are fine. I find them most lacking when listening to full bodied classical music. I find that instruments like the cello, obo and french horns aren't as rich as they should be. My sub makes up the double base and kettle drums.
