I am trying to complete my 7.1 system. I currently have the Athena Micra 6 speakers. I would like to find 2 Athena point 5 front speakers and a center channel in black. Or I need 2 more of the Micra Sat's in black. Must be in excellent condition. If anyone is upgrading and would like to sell these please let me know. Also does anyone know if Athena offered the Point 5 MKII speaker set in black, if where it can be purchased?

Thank You,
Starbound

If you don't mind slightly bigger speakers, consider upgrading to a pair of Athena Audion series AS-B1s for fronts and AS-C1 for center. It is about $100 for a pair of new AS-B1s and the same for the center. You can find them for less on ebay.

Check the classifieds, someone is selling a whole point 5. www.audioadvisor.com also sells the point 5 satellites in pairs. They also have the B1s for $99/pr and C1 for $99.

I contacted Athena and they didn't recommend using the Audition Series speakers with the Micra's as surrounds, they said it wouldn't sound right because the Auditions are so much better speakers. He did say that I would be fine with the Point 5's there would be a slight difference but not as drastic as with the Auditions.

I will check out the classifieds and see what I can find. Those as audio advisor I believe are black and silver. I want the solid black ones.

Thanks for the quick responses!
