Product Description
The AS-B1.2 is a compact two-way bookshelf design featuring a 5.5" woofer platform and the athena 1" Teteron tweeter for amazing clarity and detail. The bass reflex enclosure may be small but the tuned port provides deep extended response that belies its small size. The gold plated 5-way binding posts allow for audiophile grade cable up to 12 gauges in thickness, and standard pins and banana jacks may also be utilized.
Amazon.com Product Description
Whether you're looking to round out your home theater system with a good pair of rear satellite speakers or you need a compact speaker duo for your stereo amp, the AS-B1.2 bookshelf speakers qualify with flying colors. Each bass-reflex speaker is equipped with a 5.5-inch injection-molded polypropylene woofer with a rubber surround that handles the lows and mids, along with a 1-inch Teteron dome tweeter that reproduces amazingly crisp, detailed highs. The drivers combine to create a solid 60 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response that blends beautifully with the other speakers in a surround sound configuration. More impressively, the speakers' tuned ports deliver an extended bass response that easily belies their small size, so you needn't worry about the AS-B1.2s sounding excessively tinny.
Additional audio specifications range from a crossover point of 2.0 kHz to a sensitivity rating of 90 dB to power handling of 125 watts. And as with all quality speakers, the AS-B1.2s boast sturdy gold-plated, five-way binding post terminals that work with audiophile-grade cable up to 12 gauge in thickness. Want to use standard pins or banana jacks instead of bare wire? No problem. All this in an attractive black ash cabinet that looks great next to modern flat-panel displays and traditional tube TVs.
Though the AS-B1.2s work with almost any home theater system, they sound particularly good when teamed with other speakers from Athena's Audition series. All Audition speakers are tonally matched for the best possible performance and are magnetically shielded to protect the onscreen image. In other words, you can place the AS-B1.2s near the TV without distorting the picture. Finally, the speakers--which measure 7 by 13.75 by 9.5 inches (W x H x D) each--are protected by a five-year warranty on parts and labor.
