SA1 MK2

Q: Which speakers are compatible with this amplifier?

The SA1 MK2 is designed to power passive speakers and is fully compatible with the entire FORUS speaker range. It is also compatible with many passive speakers from other manufacturers, provided they match the amplifier&#39;s specifications. The SA1 MK2 is an excellent choice for compact and medium-sized stereo systems, offering a versatile combination of power, connectivity, and value. If you are unsure whether your speakers are compatible, feel free to contact our support team at support@argonaudio.com.

Q: Can I connect a turntable directly to this amplifier?

Yes. SA1 MK2 features both a dedicated PHONO input and a standard LINE IN input, making it 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 LINE IN 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 SA1 MK2 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 LINE IN 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 SA1 MK2 compatible with virtually any turntable, whether it has a built-in phono preamplifier or not.

Q: Can I use this amplifier with my TV?

Yes. SA1 MK2 can be connected to your TV using HDMI ARC or optical (TOSLINK), allowing you to enjoy high-quality TV audio through your speakers. For the best experience, we recommend using HDMI ARC. The amplifier will automatically turn on and off with your TV, and you can 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 hi-fi system. If your TV doesn&#39;t support HDMI ARC, you can also connect it using the optical (TOSLINK) input. To ensure proper audio playback, set your TV&#39;s digital audio output to PCM (Stereo). The SA1 MK2 is designed for two-channel audio and does 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.Setting your TV to PCM (Stereo) ensures that the audio signal is converted into a compatible two-channel format that the amplifier can process correctly.

Q: Does this amplifier support Bluetooth streaming?

Yes. The SA1 MK2 features Bluetooth 5.0 and supports the aptX, aptX HD, and AAC codecs. This allows for high-quality wireless audio streaming from compatible devices, with aptX HD offering improved audio quality compared to standard Bluetooth codecs when supported by the source device.

Q: Can I connect a subwoofer to this amplifier?

Yes. The SA1 MK2 features a PRE OUT connection that can be used to connect an active subwoofer. Adding a subwoofer can extend the system&#39;s low-frequency performance and is particularly beneficial when paired with smaller speakers or when additional bass output is desired for movies and music. For the easiest setup, we recommend the Argon Audio Subwoofer Connect Kit: This kit includes the cables needed to connect the amplifier and subwoofer quickly and easily.

Q: What is the difference between a stereo amplifier and an AV receiver?

The main difference is the number of channels they support and their intended use. A stereo amplifier is designed for two-channel audio (left and right speakers) and is primarily focused on music listening. Examples include the Argon Audio SA1 MK2 and SA2. Both also work very well with TVs thanks to their HDMI ARC and optical inputs, making them a great choice for high-quality TV and music audio with a simple stereo setup. An AV receiver is designed for multi-channel audio, making it suitable for home cinema systems such as 5.1, 7.1, or Dolby Atmos setups. It can power multiple speakers and process surround sound formats for a more immersive movie experience. In short: Choose a stereo amplifier for music and high-quality TV audio with two speakers. Choose an AV receiver for surround sound and home cinema systems with 5.1 channels or more.
