Product Description
Product Description:
The Atlantic series is a powerhouse of music. Exceptional sensitivity means that every ounce of musical detail is conveyed to the listener. The AT-100 is a perfect replacement speaker for mini or midi systems. In most cases the compromises have been made in the loudspeakers supplied with such systems and the performance of the system can be vastly improved by replacing just the speakers.

5 out of 5 stars Nice open sound period; nevermind the price........2003-01-16

These are really nice speakers. The highs are clear; the bass is tight. The midrange is a tad thin but really clean. I have a pair of AR 215PS bookshelf speakers at about the same price. The Wharfedales are flat out better in all categories. They fill a medium size room with smooth sound; they even look better. NICE!!!

Just to address a couple of issues. The Black Ash speakers I received have silver accents on the top and bottom front of the speakers, but not on the front center of the units. As I said above they look very good. The dimensions are 15 1/8" High X 8 1/4" Wide X 6 1/2" Deep. The Wharfedale manual that comes packed with the speakers lists frequency response as 48 to 20,000 Hz. The tweeters are fero-fluid cooled.

3 out of 5 stars great sound but picture misleading.......2002-09-05

These speakers sound great for their size. The picture that amazon.com has representing the speakers is misleading though. The maple speakers shown have nice silver accents. The ones I received are in fact maple, but have black where the silver is represented in the picture.

Happily this day, my wonderful Wharfedale Atlantic 100's have arrived. I'm still waiting for my Harman Kardon receiver to show up, so tonight I plugged my barely decent Sony boom box receiver into them. It boasts a modest 3.2 Ohm preference, so I'm "pushing" the sound into the 6 Ohm Atlantics. The boom box has endured about 7 years of moderate tape playing. So to slap in an equally worn copy of Steely Dan's 'Aja', only to find resoundingly detailed and rich sound flowing out the other end . . . and I paid less than 100 dollars for these little guys . . . okay, Wharfedale, what is your secret!? I suspect that when the Harman Kardon arrives, and the 2 meet, the results will defy my greater sensibilities. To say the least. So my friend, treat yourself a little this day, and buy a pair!! And the speakers happen to be beautiful as well, elegant and matching their crystal sound with both class and style. January isn't even over, and I've already made my best purchase of the year!!

5 out of 5 stars Very Good Value.......2001-07-19

I'm very pleased and impressed with this set of speakers. Given the compact size, I expected to have to use a subwoofer to get decent bass response, but after plugging them in, I found it wasn't necessary at all. The construction is sturdy and looks to be very high quality.

Crisp and clear sound, but do yourself a favor and get high quality speaker cable. The difference is audible.

Before buying these, I emailed the company asking for more specs, and I got a response back the next day. Not only do they make high quality speakers, they also have excellent customer service!
