Argon³L floorstander is closely based on the Argon³ bookshelf, which is praised for its midrange resolution.
The design concept of Argon3L was simple, yet highly challenging:
• Take Argon3 - one of world´s best bookshelf speakers
• Create more bass extention without loosing midrange magic.
Solution:
To achieve the almost undoable task of keeping the midrange magic while creating more bass energy a highly complex and innovative enclosure structure was developed. Midrange and woofer chambers are separated, which keeps the upper bass from interfering with the midrange. To achieve a transparent floorstander - or a reference quality monitor with integrated stand. A very solid, complex and heavily braced cabinet and a proprietary bass loading system allows the woofer to keep its midrange clarity yet produce lower octaves with more authority.
Added enclosure volume allows bass frequencies to reach below 30 Hz. Furthermore Argon3L has true realistic bass authority without the usual midrange-masking upper bass bloat present in most mid priced floorstanders. And a true reference quality mini-monitor midrange.
End result:
A floorstander with midrange purity which equals the best mini-monitors, yet provides added authority for low registers.

U/D/D stands for Uniformly Directive Diffusion. By creating even dispersion the anomalies caused by wall, floor and ceiling reflections are minimized. This allows the listener to hear less of their room and more of their music.
