Love the Sound
Love it, love it, love it.
The sound is great. I compared this unit to several in store systems and am very pleased with the sound at a much lower cost ( by $100.00 or more)
If in 6 months this system sounds like it does today, I'd recommend this unit to anyone.

Amazing clarity ... A super bargain !!!
I bought this unit through Amazon / Vanns - a very reliable online seller that I have tried in the past. I am using this speaker with my 80GB iPod 5.5 Video. The sound quality of this speaker is simply amazing! I had an opportunity to do a side by side comparison with a $299 Bose Sound Dock and the Athena is easily 85-90% of the sound quality of the Bose.

I also like the fact that the power supply is built-in so there are no adaptors or ugly wall-warts to carry around AND the power supply is 100-240 volts so it can work anywhere in the world without any voltage conversion!

The only weak point is the remote - well, it does it's job but very basic ... one really cannot complain at this price point though!

Just what I needed
The small space and the sound quality is just perfect for the office. It doen't take up a huge chunk of my desk and the sound for the office is great. I don't know how it would work if you had a big space and you wanted the sound to be perfect quality.

Great product
I'm a tough, bargain-concious consumer so buying this device involved a lot of research. Great quality sound for awesome price. The sound is so crisp I can "blow away" my daughter when she cranks her stereo. Now she borrows my player when using her mp3 player. Only wish the remote was more functional and it came with a standard USB port. I highly recommend this product. Hmmm...could probably be a great Christmas gift.

Great sound, "touchy" remote
I've had this for a few weeks now and I think it gives a great sound with my nano 2nd gen. A little advise, play with the EQ settings on you ipod to customize the sound to what you like.

I found 2 draw backs that others have found:
1. The remote works very poorly straight out of the box. I switched out the battery with a new one and it helped the range a lot, but you still have to "play" with it to get it to work. Seems like there is some sort of delay so if you increase the volume and then want to pause or skip to the next song you have to wait a few seconds.

2. Each time you unplug/plug-in the system the volume jumps to maximum when you play your ipod. Since I leave my Athena in one place this is not a problem to me, but it's something you should be aware of if you move the unit around a lot.

Even with the 2 problems it was a great buy.
