Digital precision

FORTE MK2 utilizes a fully digital amplifier with digital modulation. Digital sources are kept fully digital from input to output stage, ensuring there is no noise or loss in the signal path. All low-res sources are upsampled to 32-bit/96 kHz – and high-res sources up to 96 kHz are not downsampled.

The amplifier also includes a high-performance digital sound processing (DSP) with active crossover, the mid/bass woofers and tweeters have their own dedicated amplifier. A custom-engineered bass driver delivers class-leading performance with ultra-low distortion in the critical midrange. All of this is housed in a stylish cabinet that has been designed using advanced computer models, featuring an acoustic flow resistor between the two woofers, which eliminates standing wave resonances. Combined with careful tuning and consideration the result is an open and crisp soundstage with well-defined bass that delivers punch no matter the volume.

A stereo system built into your speaker

FORTE MK2 sports an HDMI ARC input, which means you can finally throw away that cheap plastic soundbar underneath your TV and get some real stereo sound, without compromising on ease of use. Just connect your FORTE MK2 speakers with an HDMI cable to your TVs HDMI ARC output, and you’re good to go! Now you get real hi-fi sound losslessly transferred from your TV, the speakers will automatically turn on and off with the TV, and you can even use your TV remote to control the volume of the speakers – it’s that easy.

Of course, there’s also the Bluetooth connection if you just want to listen to some sweet tunes. Just pair your phone, your tablet, or any other device, and you’re good to go. The high-quality Bluetooth aptX HD connection gives you impressive clarity; it’s basically as good as CD quality. There are also a couple of plug-and-play ports for your record player, an external streamer, or whatever you want. Speaker- and power cables are included in the box – all you need to do is find a power outlet.

Designed in Denmark

If you’re in the market for new speakers, you’ve probably noticed how most of them look very... speakerish. And that’s not a compliment. The FORTE MK2’s on the other hand, are real lookers. Just like everything else Argon Audio makes, the FORTE-series is designed and engineered in Denmark with careful attention to detail. The aluminum detailing and the high-end finish make these speakers just as easy on the eyes as on the ears. The front fabric is magnetically attached, giving it a beautiful look when the grilles are removed. These are living room friendly, not only hi-fi showroom friendly.

TRUE ACTIVE SPEAKERS

Our Active Speakers Crush the Competition – Here’s Why

Many active speakers in this price range aren’t truly active as far as we’re concerned. This is because they use outdated passive crossovers, similar to those found in standard passive speakers. Both our FORTE and FENRIS speakers, on the other hand, feature active crossovers. These are built directly into our custom amplifiers, with separate channels of amplification for the tweeter and woofer.

What does that mean? Well, to put it simply, a passive crossover is triggered after the amplifier, while an active crossover is triggered before. The active crossover eliminates any unwanted frequencies before they reach the amplifier, allowing the amplifier to focus solely on the desired frequencies. This results in a more dynamic and powerful output, even from smaller speakers. Active crossovers also offer greater precision and allow us to fine-tune the sound more effectively. Always look for this feature when choosing your next active speakers!

HiFi Reviews

"Argon Audio makes a bold statement in compact design with the FORTE A4 MK2. The demanding Danish company impresses on several levels: visually, the speaker pair is an elegant mini sound furniture piece that reflects its Scandinavian origin. Most importantly, the FORTE A4 MK2 has exceptional sound quality. The sound is powerful, has great depth, and is very clear, regardless of the music genre. The two speakers are highly versatile, replacing both a soundbar and a Hi-Fi system. Visually, it's high-end, and acoustically, it's high-end. We give this performance a big compliment!"

"The Forte A4 mk2 preserves everything that made the original Forte A4 great. The sound quality is still excellent, and the design has been further improved. Additionally, connectivity options have been expanded, and the HDMI ARC capability is the icing on the cake. They can be connected to a TV instead of a soundbar and elevate the audio experience in a home office, a teenager's bedroom, or a small living room. Moreover, they look great wherever you place them."

Read review (Danish)

"[…] these loudspeakers have great qualities that enable them to easily earn our recommendations. With excellent sound spatialization, user-friendly operation (despite the absence of certain functions), good midrange processing, and delightful rendering of vocal timbre, they offer a smooth, shimmering musical experience that is very pleasant and easily accessible for the majority of listeners."

Read review (French)

"The Argon Audio Forte A4 doesn’t cost much but sounds much more expensive and should be able to give far more ambitious speakers a run for their money. Also when it comes to the bass, which reaches all the way down to the frequency limit without loss of power."

A4, A5, or A55?

To put it simply, you are choosing the size of your speaker system, which includes both the physical size and the size of the speaker components. The A4, A5, and A55 models aren't just numbers but refer to the size of the bass/midrange unit on the speakers. The A4, being the most compact, is equipped with a 4-inch bass/midrange driver. In contrast, the A55, a floor-standing speaker system, boasts dual 5-inch units for enhanced bass response.

The A4 model is ideally suited for a gaming setup in your bedroom or as a discreet solution next to your TV, offering clear and precise sound quality in a compact form.

The A5, on the other hand, marks a significant improvement with its ability to deliver deeper bass and higher volume, making it suitable for slightly larger spaces or those seeking a more impactful sound experience.

Stepping it up, the "A55" is where things get serious. Designed for audiophiles and those passionate about music and film, these speakers deliver deep, resonant bass and a sound experience that doesn't just fill the space but completely transforms it. Perfect for transforming your living room into a cinematic oasis or creating that concert hall vibe for your playlists.
