 Misleading Advertising & Poor Customer Service July 23, 2008
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!

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.
 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.
