Argon3

Stockfisch Records, the home of audiophile recordings.

Often manufacturers strive for a certain sound. For Argons the reference is what we hear in real life. Nothing less. Nothing more.

Rauno Tikkanen, Conductor/recording artist

Amphion Argons have become a preferred choice for many of those who know what music really sounds like. It is not often a tool used for work and be a source of enjoyment...

Argon1

music sounds like. Like and Mr. Günter Pauler at Stockfisch records.

Argon1 is a reference grade minimonitor. High quality driver integration creates a cohesive and transparent midrange. Argon1 is perfect for small rooms. Pair it with a sub and you have an easy to place full range reference system even for bigger spaces.

You can now audition and possibly own the same speakers that are used in the recording process of some of the all time audiophile reference recordings.

Argon3L Due to its compact size it can be even placed on your desktop (or monitoring console). Argon1 is smaller, but it is just as truthful.

Argon3L is a floorstanding version of maybe today´s best bookshelf Argon3. Being electrically identical they share the worldclass monitor-like midrange. Bigger enclosure produces more bass extension and authority - without demanding any more floorspace.

Argon7L Argon7L takes the “keep the midrange magic- add authority”- idea to a whole new level. The controlled, nuance rich bass energy adds greatly to the emotional involvement. Not a hint of midrange resolution has been sacrificed to achieve a perfect foundation, which lets the music thru. Argon7L - Just music.

Argon3 Is Argon3 the best speaker in its price and size point? Despite the high praise we simply do not know. What we do know is that Argon3 are used by those who really know what

Reference class 3-dimensionality and great bass extension, which also works close to the walls, make Argon3L a perfect speaker for high quality 2 channel systems, which are also enjoyed with concert or movie soundtracks.
