Amphion Argon 3


I am interested in getting these speakers. I have read the reviews, have talked with some dealers, seen some posts about them. I have not been anle to hear them in person, due to my location. I want to hear from owners of these little gems. Get some feedback on how well you like them. Thanks in advance.

Mattcone, Your a serial thread starter!!!! I have counted at least 5 threads that you have started on standmount speakers. The silly thing is that you don't even particpate in the threads, not to mention listen to anyones advice. On your last thread you mentioned that your new speakers will be going in an armior. It's not a good idea to put a rear ported speaker in space like that.
Also, the Argon are not efficient at 86 db. Your 55 watt amp would not be a great match. The last speakers I had were around 86 db and I used a 250 amp to get good results.
It seems like you keep starting theads to get the answer you want to hear, so the Argon 3's are awesome, go for it!!
That said, do try to particpate in a thread in which start. You may learn something, and get to sound you are after. I asked you a few questions in another one of your threads which will help in your quest. How big is your room, listening level spls, music , are you running a sub,are you sticking with this amp and speaker placement for the long run?
Peace,
Todd
Hi Mattcone, Sorry if this came off a bit harsh. No harm was meant. I like many others do a ton of online research before we pull the trigger.
Have you read the 2 reviews at Sounstage? One is for the Argon3 and Argon2. Both reviews were glowing, and I am sure these are fantastic speakers. But you must be careful to match you amp and room space to a speaker selection to get great sound. If you said these would be on stands and 2 feet from the front wall, and you had 150 watt amp, I would say the Argons might be perfect for your space. From a recent thread you had mentioned the speakers going in your armoir. In that case a 200 to 600 dollar Triangle speaker may be the perfect choice , being that it's front ported and very efficient. Best of luck with your search!
