What's unique about the brand
What reviewers are saying
We read all the reviews. Here's what reviewers feel most strongly about:
- Argon Audio delivers a wide array of connectivity options, including turntable inputs, HDMI ARC, and both digital and analog inputs.
- They implement true active speaker designs with dedicated amplifiers for each driver (bi-amplification), along with DSP correction, to deliver a balanced sound signature.
- Argon Audio delivers sound quality that belies their price point, often being compared favorably to more expensive competitors and exceeding expectations for the budget category.
Our favorite reviewer quotes:
- "Placing a pair of Argon Audio Forte A4s in the living room next to the grown-up speakers in your system can bring a smile to the lips of an old hifi enthusiast like this one – but they can also provoke a cold sweat. A smile because it's a pleasure to listen to them, and a cold sweat because they perform so well you almost wonder whether you could settle for so little!" (https://www.lbtechreviews.com/test/speakers/argon-audio-forte-a4)
- "Deep synth drones or organ voices fill the room, while drums sound wonderfully dynamic. I had go extra loud on "The Rhythm of the Heat" from Peter Gabriel 4 to get lost in the crowd before the writing work could continue." (https://www.lbtechreviews.com/test/speakers/argon-audio-forte-a55)
- "Every time, the Argon Audio TT-4 Special Edition turntable delivered a spacious soundstage. The naturalness of the vocals was impressive, and they were rendered with warmth and detail." (https://blog.son-video.com/en/2024/03/argon-audio-tt-4-special-edition-a-turntable-with-a-revolutionary-anti-vibration-system)
- "Dire Straits' Love Over Gold pours out of the speakers with serious bass reproduction of the kind you associate with more expensive turntables. The soundstage is open and airy, there's good detail here and the guitar tone is warm and rich." (https://www.lbtechreviews.com/test/hifi/argon-audio-tt4)
