Amazon.com The floorstanding WS-100 is the flagship model of the WS Series, in a dynamic high performance configuration featuring a total of 9 drivers. The 1" Teteron tweeter reproduces the highs, while three 3.5" woofers handle all bass duties with distortion-free ease. A total of five 3.5" passive radiators are utilized to extend bass response down to below 50Hz. The WS-100 features an attractive polycarbonate base for enhanced cosmetics as well as additional stability for its extruded aluminum cabinet. The WS-100 provides power handling and bass extension unmatched in this category, but the proof is in the audition.

Perfect for LCD placementOctober 24, 2008 P. B. Jones(Denver, USA) I got these to replace older Onkyo stock speakers. Following the vein of an earlier review, these are not as loud or punchy. I definitely lost base going from a much larger speaker to these. My Sub is more than able to make up the difference. So I turned my system up a little and turned the surrounds down, no big deal. But- I also got a much cleaner sound. I can play Iron Man at much higher levels and still retain clarity in the sound. We also picked up the ws-60 center and man does it sound great. I would never go back to stock speakers. The upgrade was more than worth it. They also look fantastic and the wife is really pleased with how they blend in with the TV setup so well.
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.
Nice Spec mediocre sound qualitySeptember 11, 2008 the(Las Vegas) 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
Hi,
I looked at the reviews and the spec. They all look great. I have a klipsch quintet SL and im happy with it but looking for more power. The klipsch has a similar dimension and spec of 1" tweeter and 3.5 midwoofer except klipsh only has 3 drivers and this has 9 drivers. You would think would get more power. I hooked it up and immediately the volume is like 8 notches below. In fact I could barely hear the sound I have turn the volume up. The sound gets better if you make it really loud but if I do that the rest of my speakers gets too loud. My hk 347 receiver allows me to adjust the volume. Overall disappointed with these speakers though they look AWESOME just sound like small satellite speakers. The base speakers looks great too. The speaker wire is too small i'm using 10 gauge wire and probably max that would fit is 14 gauge.
Misleading Advertising & Poor Customer ServiceJuly 23, 2008 R. D. Uptagrafft(Seattle WA) 0 out of 4 found this review helpful
I bought these Athena Speakers based on a net based review. When I ordered them they clearly advertised that they were wall mountable with brackets included. Upon receipt...no brackets and an email to Athena got a response that wall mount was not an option and that Amazon made the mistake. I inquired about getting brackets as an option and was sent from customer service to technical suppport. To date I have received no response from "technical support" regarding returning these speakers and am greatly frustrated by the whole experience. I would not recommend doing business with Athena!
Awesome slimline speakers!January 12, 2008 Stephen G. Marquette 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
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.
