Argyle I Amplifier
At seven mighty watts of single-ended power, the Argyle I inherits its smooth breakup character from the early tweed amps of the 1950s. But that’s just one side of this beauty’s family tree. A sturdy 5AR4 rectifier and overbuilt output transformer make for articulate lows that funk, soul, blues, rock, and country players expect from this amp’s modern-day cousins.
We gave the Argyle I a three-band eq, on-board spring reverb, and output impedance selector so that it will sound great through any speaker complement. Even we were surprised, however, by the amp’s magical voice when we piggy-backed it on our 2x12 Mahogany-Walnut cabinet with handmade alnico speakers.
Eye-catching? Check. Ear-catching? Holy check! We’re proud to bring you the Argyle I, the next step in your sonic journey.
