Constellation Audio Argo - Manual (Page 4)

4
Thank you for purchasing the Constellation Audio Argo integrated amplifier. We engineered
the Argo to combine our numerous groundbreaking audio technologies—such as our
Balanced Bridged amplifier circuit, our Line Stage Gain Module, and the nearly impermeable
shielding of our machined aluminum chassis—into a relatively compact and convenient form
factor.
Argo works almost exactly like our Altair II and Virgo integrated amps, but with no power
supply or line-level output connections required. It also offers a couple of new features never
before found on Constellation Audio components. As with all of our components, the
advanced design and unique engineering demand a somewhat different setup and
operating process compared with most other integrated amplifiers. By reading this manual
before you install or operate the Argo, you assure that you get maximum performance from
your system.
