Product Description
The S.5 speaker combines great looks, flexible placement options, high power handling, and massive sound, all in one! The tiny S.5 can be used in many applications. It's perfect for music use in small rooms, or as an add-on to a home theater system as rear channels. The S.5 has great bass response all on its own, but coupled with an AS-P series active subwoofer, it's an amazing listening experience.The high gloss black cabinets look beautiful in any d?cor. The finish choices allow it to be used in conjunction with any other athena TECHNOLOGIES model. It is also completely timbre matched - so it can be utilized in conjunction with either SCT series models, or AUDITION series models.The included mounting bracket is one of the sturdiest and simplest designs on the market today. The bracket requires no special tools and allows very flexible angles to let you place the speaker where you need to, and aim the sound where the seating positions are. The flexibility and value of the S.5 speaker is only surpassed by the amazing sound quality it will provide.

I needed new speakers for my home theater system, so after doing some online research,I decided to try the Athena's out.I ordered these satelites,a matching center channel,and a powered subwoofer from amazon for 50% off last month.Out of the box the speakers didn't impress me,they sounded "tinny" and "harsh".I thought about returning them, but decided to wait a little while.The manufacturer states that a "break in" period is required for these speakers to attain thier full potential,and they are right.I listened to these speakers again after they were broken in,and I am pleased with them.I would describe the sound quality as "very detailed",and rather "bright".I would recommend these speakers as long as a subwoofer is used with them.
