{"title":"ARGON AUDIO","description":"\u003cp\u003eArgon Audio is a Danish hi-fi brand that builds speakers, amplifiers and streamers for entry-level and solid mid-range systems. Founded more than 20 years ago as the house brand of the Danish chain HiFi Klubben, Argon has been an independent company under Nordic HiFi since 2019, with development and design still based in Denmark.

The crossover works digitally in the DSP, ahead of amplification rather than after it – which is exactly why a 4-inch driver sounds more grown-up here than its size suggests. The magnetic front panel covers the screws, and automatic power on\/off saves you reaching for a switch every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the connection side, the A4 holds nothing back: HDMI ARC for the TV, an optical digital input, an analogue RCA input and – far from a given in this class – a phono MM input for the turntable.

That fully covers electric bass, kick drum and the fundamental tone of cello or piano.

The gap to the smaller Forus 4 isn't marketing, it's verifiable: 5.25 instead of 4 inches of cone area, 55 instead of 60 Hz lower cutoff, a 1-inch instead of a 0.75-inch tweeter. You can hear it. Which amplifier suits it, how far from the wall it should sit, with or without a subwoofer – just ask us.

At 42 centimetres tall and nearly 30 centimetres wide, this isn't a discreet little picture frame, it's a visible object on the wall – measure first. It's also passive, so an amplifier belongs in front of it. And if you already have room on the sideboard, the freestanding Forus 5 is the more affordable route.

The Forus 5 Wall builds only 13 centimetres deep, but measures 29.7 × 42 centimetres across the front – and so reaches a 50 Hz lower cutoff frequency. That's deeper than the freestanding Forus 5.

It isn't active either, so an amplifier belongs in front of it.

Two 4-inch paper cones and the 0.75-inch silk dome split the work at 3000 Hz, so the entire vocal range comes from one source, right below the picture.

If dialogue is still hard to understand afterwards, raise the center manually by one to two decibels – that's usually enough. Many receivers also have a dialogue or voice mode that emphasises exactly this range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt what height and orientation should the Forus Center go?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs close as possible to the centre of the picture, so directly below or above the TV. If it sits noticeably lower than your ears, tilt it slightly upward towards the seating position – a felt wedge under the front edge is enough. Let it stand freely, don't place it in an enclosed cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow deep does the Forus Center play, and do I need a subwoofer with it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt reaches down to 70 Hz. That's entirely sufficient for voices, but not for explosions and film scores. In a home cinema, the subwoofer takes over below that anyway, which the AV receiver usually crosses over at 80 Hz. So a subwoofer in the set is clearly recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Forus Center supplied individually?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the center is sold as a single unit – unlike stereo pairs, which always come as two. In a 5.1 system you need exactly one. It weighs 4.3 kilograms; front cover and rubber feet are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Forus Center in White from HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the setup matters at least as much as the speaker itself.

The light-coloured case is so unobtrusive that it simply doesn't stand out in an open-plan kitchen or a bedroom — which is pretty much the whole idea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the SA2?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHi-fi systems usually grow sideways: first the amplifier, then the streamer, then the DAC. The SA2 reverses that and packs everything into a footprint of 22 by 25 centimetres. The Class D power amp delivers 2 × 50 watts into 8 ohms, and 2 × 100 watts into 4 ohms. A 32-bit ESS Sabre DAC running in fully balanced mode handles up to 24 bit\/192 kHz, with total harmonic distortion staying below 0.03 percent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SA2 joins your network over WLAN; if you'd rather run a cable, an optional USB-Ethernet adapter takes care of that. Playback runs via AirPlay 2, Chromecast built-in, Spotify Connect or Tidal Connect, controlled either from your usual music app or via DTS Play-Fi. On top of that there's HDMI ARC for the TV, an optical input, RCA and a phono MM input. The pre-out is free for a subwoofer, in case you'd like a bit more down low.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the SA2 right for — and who isn't it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlain talk: the SA2 doesn't work as a headphone hub — it simply has no headphone jack. Nor is it built to drive large, power-hungry floorstanding speakers in a big room. As the networked heart of a second room, a home office or a tidy living-room system, though, it does exactly what you'd hope from a device like this — quietly, coolly and without any fuss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA device for anyone who wants to spread music through the house without every room looking like a tech showroom.

The Stream 2 MK3 joins your home network via WLAN, shows the station, title and cover art on its own colour display, and passes the signal on either as analogue over RCA or digitally via the optical output.

Crossover frequency, a 3-band notch EQ and a subsonic filter can be set directly on the unit, and a display shows the current configuration. That way the Sub 12 adapts to the room and main speakers instead of overpowering them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Active subwoofer, sealed cabinet, down-firing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmplifier:\u003c\/strong\u003e Class D, 500 W RMS \/ 1200 W peak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDriver:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\" long-throw woofer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13–250 Hz (± 6 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e RCA (stereo), XLR (balanced)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput:\u003c\/strong\u003e RCA (pass-through\/daisy-chain)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSettings:\u003c\/strong\u003e crossover frequency 30–250 Hz, 3-band notch EQ, display, standby \u0026lt; 0.5 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirmware update:\u003c\/strong\u003e via USB-C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (H×W×D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 38.5 × 34.5 × 34.5 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat distinguishes the Berlin Sub 12 from the Sub 10?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sub 12 has a 12-inch driver instead of a 10-inch one, in a sealed cabinet instead of a bass reflex one. As a result it reaches one hertz lower (13 instead of 14 Hz) and tends to sound more controlled in the bass. Both share the same amplifier, adjustment options and connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat room size is the Sub 12 suited for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to 500 watts and the 12-inch driver, it confidently fills larger living rooms and home cinema spaces too.
