Yes. FORTE WIFI speakers feature both a dedicated PHONO input and a standard AUX input, making them compatible with virtually any turntable - no additional equipment required.

Choose the correct input depending on your turntable:

Turntable without a built-in phono preamplifier (RIAA) → Connect it directly to the PHONO input.
Turntable with a built-in phono preamplifier (RIAA) → Set the turntable to RIAA ON (or LINE) and connect it to the AUX input.

Recommended settings for Argon Audio turntables

• TT-3 and TT SIGNATURE: Connect to the PHONO input.
• TT MK2: For the best sound quality, we recommend setting the turntable to RIAA OFF and connecting it to the PHONO input, allowing the FENRIS built-in phono stage to handle the amplification.
• TT-3 Plus, TT-4 MK2, TT-4 Special Edition, and TT AURORA: We recommend setting the turntable to RIAA ON and connecting it to the AUX input. The built-in phono preamplifier in these models has been carefully matched to the supplied cartridge for excellent sound quality and the simplest setup.

This flexibility makes FENRIS compatible with virtually any turntable, whether it has a built-in phono preamplifier or not.

Yes. FORTE WIFI speakers feature a built-in phono preamp (RIAA), allowing you to connect a turntable directly to the PHONO input without needing additional equipment.

With FORTE WIFI, nothing extra - connect your turntable straight to the PHONO input and you're set.

Yes. FORTE WIFI speakers are an excellent alternative to a soundbar, delivering true stereo sound with a wider soundstage and more natural audio for movies, TV shows, music, and gaming.

Simply connect your TV using HDMI ARC, and the speakers will automatically turn on and off with your TV. You can also control the volume using your TV remote, giving you the same everyday convenience as a soundbar—combined with the superior sound quality of a dedicated stereo speaker system.

To ensure proper audio playback, set your TV's digital audio output to PCM (Stereo). FENRIS speakers are designed for two-channel audio and do not support Dolby Digital, DTS, or other surround sound formats. If your TV is set to output one of these formats, you may experience no sound or other audio issues.

Yes. FENRIS speakers feature dedicated PRE OUT outputs, making it easy to add an active subwoofer for deeper, more powerful bass and an even more immersive listening experience.

For the simplest setup, we recommend the FENRIS Subwoofer Connect Kit, which includes everything you need to connect your speakers to a compatible subwoofer quickly and easily.

Yes. FORTE WIFI offers the widest range of wireless streaming options in the FORTE series.

You can stream music via:

• Bluetooth 4.2 with AAC and SBC
• Apple AirPlay 2
• Google Cast (Chromecast built-in)
• Spotify Connect

With built-in Wi-Fi streaming, you can play music directly from your favourite streaming services without relying on a Bluetooth connection. You can also stream from compatible apps on your phone, tablet, or computer using AirPlay 2 or Google Cast.

If you're looking for the most flexible wireless listening experience, FORTE WIFI is the ideal choice.

At Argon Audio, active speakers are designed to deliver true hi-fi sound without the complexity of a traditional separates system.

Unlike passive speakers, which require an external amplifier, our active speakers have the amplifier built in. This allows you to connect sources such as a TV, turntable, smartphone, computer, or streamer directly to the speakers for a simple, space-saving setup.

Because the amplifier, drivers, crossover, and DSP (Digital Signal Processing) are all designed and tuned together, every component works in perfect harmony. The amplifier is precisely matched to the drivers, allowing us to optimize the sound, improve efficiency, and ensure consistent performance across the entire frequency range.

Depending on the model, Argon Audio active speakers also include features such as HDMI ARC, Bluetooth, built-in phono preamplifiers (RIAA), and Wi-Fi streaming, making them an ideal all-in-one solution for music, TV, gaming, and vinyl.

The main difference is that active speakers have a built-in amplifier, while passive speakers require an external amplifier to power them.

At Argon Audio, our FENRIS, FORTE, and STUDIE 3 series are active speakers. They combine the amplifier, drivers, crossover, and DSP (Digital Signal Processing) into a single, carefully tuned system. Because every component is designed to work together, the amplifier is perfectly matched to the drivers, resulting in optimized performance, excellent sound quality, and a simple plug-and-play setup.

Active speakers can be connected directly to sources such as TVs, turntables, smartphones, computers, streamers, and CD players, eliminating the need for a separate amplifier and reducing both clutter and setup time.

Our FORUS series consists of passive speakers. These speakers require an external amplifier or AV receiver to provide power and manage audio sources. This approach offers greater flexibility, allowing you to choose, upgrade, or replace your amplifier independently as your system evolves.

For stereo music systems, FORUS speakers pair perfectly with stereo amplifiers such as the SA1 MK2 or SA2. If you're planning to build a home cinema system with surround sound (5.1, 7.1, or more), you'll need a compatible AV receiver instead of a stereo amplifier.

Which should you choose?

If you're looking for the simplest, smartest all-in-one solution with exceptional sound quality and minimal setup, active speakers are the ideal choice. If you prefer maximum flexibility, enjoy upgrading individual components, or plan to build a surround sound home cinema system, passive speakers may be the better fit.

The main differences are size, bass performance, and output capability.

The FENRIS A4 and A5 are bookshelf speakers featuring a 2-way design with one woofer and one tweeter. The A5 uses a larger woofer, allowing it to deliver deeper bass and higher output than the A4.

The FENRIS A55 is a floorstanding speaker featuring two woofers and one tweeter. The additional woofer and larger cabinet help it produce deeper bass, greater dynamics, and higher volume levels, making it particularly well suited for larger rooms.

All three models offer the same connectivity and features. The best choice depends on your room size, available space, and how much bass and output you want.

No. Our active speaker systems are designed as dedicated stereo pairs, consisting of one left and one right speaker.

They do not support adding additional speakers for surround sound, multi-channel audio, or expanding the stereo setup. If you are looking for a simple and high-quality two-channel listening experience, active stereo speakers are an excellent choice.

As a general rule, we recommend placing your speakers 10–30 cm (4–12 inches) from the rear wall. This usually provides a good balance between bass performance, soundstage, and clarity.

Placing speakers closer to the wall will typically increase bass output, while moving them further into the room can improve imaging and reduce bass coloration.

The ideal distance depends on the speaker model, room acoustics, and your personal preferences. If possible, experiment with different positions to find the sound that works best in your room.

No. That's the whole point of active speakers - FENRIS, FORTE MK2, FORTE WIFI, and STUDIE 3 all have amplification built in, so you can connect your TV, turntable, phone, or computer directly with no separate amplifier required.

That means a smaller footprint, one less box to buy, and fewer cables to manage, without compromising on sound quality.
