Product Information
Designed for the music enthusiast who also appreciates convenience, the Argon Audio Forte A4 MK2 active speakers deliver the best of all worlds.
Compact active speakers for the music enthusiast
Featuring custom drive units and powerful, active amplification, the Argon Audio Forte A4 MK2 deliver pristine sound quality, with ultra-low levels of distortion. The compact design makes them perfect as premium desktop speakers or for when you simply want no-compromise sound in a smaller space. Capable of handling every device from a smartphone to CD player and TV to turntable, these small speakers offer versatility beyond their size.
Premium sound quality
For the best in sound, Argon Audio has specified these speakers to the highest standards. The woofers feature a special 2-layer cone with powerful motor system for bass that’s punchy yet tightly controlled. At the top end, the soft dome tweeters get the perfect balance between intense detail and smooth refinement.
The active difference
As active speakers, the Forte A4 MK2s feature four, fully digital amplifiers. With a substantial 80 watts for each drive unit, every aspect of the sound is precisely controlled, giving you lifelike timing and natural tone.
Boost the sound with optional subwoofer
If you want to boost the bass further, simply connect your choice of active subwoofer via the sub output. Argon Audio’s own range of subs provide the perfect match and are available in different sizes to suit your room size and taste.
Connect your TV
Working as a huge upgrade to most TV speakers and as a flexible alternative to a soundbar, the Forte A4 MK2’s HDMI ARC socket is the ideal way to connect your TV. As this is an ARC (Audio Return Channel) socket, your TV’s remote control still operates the speakers’ volume, making it easy to enjoy better sound, without the need for extra remotes.
Connect your turntable
If you’d prefer to spin a record, the Forte A4 MK2’s phono input is ideal. Compatible with MM (Moving Magnet) cartridge-equipped turntables, it means that you can plug most decks straight in, without the need for any auxiliary pre-amp boxes.
Perfect for your CD player, games console and more
As well as accepting a TV and turntable, the Forte A4 MK2 also has analogue and optical digital inputs for a wide range of other sources. The AUX input is perfect for older components, such as a tuner or CD player without digital output. An optical input is also standard – perfect for a games console, set-top TV box or even a Blu-ray/DVD/CD player.
Enhanced Bluetooth for high quality, wireless sound
Upgraded to support aptX HD and AAC, the Forte A4 MK2’s Bluetooth compatibility sounds better than ever. With the potential for HD streaming quality, you get more detailed and expansive sound from your wireless music. If you use a premium music streaming service with high quality files, this is the perfect way to extract the maximum performance.
Compact size and available in a choice of finishes
Perfectly sized for desktop or bookshelf use, these compact speakers are ideal for the home office, bedroom or any smaller space that would benefit from some high quality, stereo sound. For the finish that best suits your décor, they’ve available in a choice of Black or White.
Listen to your music in a smaller space, without compromise, with these sparkling active speakers.
