I recently purchased the Atlantic 400 floorspeakers not expecting much based on the low price. These speakers are a great value. However I could only muster up four stars for two reasons. Reason one; I expected more bass from them than they can provide. Reason two; the removable grills aren't very well engineered, they are difficult to remove and are very flimsy,feels almost like they're going to break when trying to take them off. But all in all I challange you to find a better speaker for your money. I have owned several speakers over the last ten years, constantly looking for something better. I think these speakers will satisfy my taste for quality sound for years to come. I have added a JBL 250-watt 12inch powered sub to fulfill my need for bass. Don't misunderstand, these speakers provide tight accurate bass, but I like to "feel" my music a little bit more. Get yourself a pair, You'll be glad you did for the price! Remember we're talking about WARFEDALE speakers,GOOD STUFF!!

I have had my wharfedale AT400 speakers for four days now and I'm still waiting for them to shine. Not that I'm disappointed with the speaker, but I did expect a little more bass than they were able to produce. I was going to go without a sub-woofer, but found that I had to purchase one anyway to help reach those deep bass sounds I expect from my surround sound system. I have an onkyo receiver and these speakers handle the power well and sound great at high volumes. The mid range is a little muddy which gives the speaker a somewhat smooth sound that would please the jazz lovers in the crowd. I would recommend these speakers for any one who wants decent sounding speakers for a good price.

I had this speaker for about a year and the bass management is great be it in Dolby digital, DTS or PCM Stereo. It's just a matter of adjustment from the Home Theater Receiver. I recommended this speaker to some and they were satisfied the way it performed especially when the dynamic range is already 40.
It is durable except the grill when it becomes loose it could be mistaken as sound of a distorted tweeter. Try it, it's worth the price.
