The Argon Audio TT-3 Plus combines timeless design with modern convenience. With an Ortofon 2M Red pickup, built-in RIAA preamp, and carbon fiber tonearm, it delivers rich, detailed vinyl sound straight out of the box — no extra gear required.

Argon Audio TT-3 Plus: A Stylish Turntable That Brings Vinyl Back to Life

The Argon Audio TT-3 Plus is a serious hi-fi turntable designed for those who want true vinyl sound without complications. It comes ready to play with a factory-mounted Ortofon 2M Red pickup and a built-in RIAA amplifier, meaning you can connect it directly to almost any amplifier, active speaker, or sound system — even if it doesn’t have a dedicated phono input.

This is a belt-driven, fully manual turntable, a classic and time-tested approach that guarantees long-term stability, minimal maintenance, and a rich, natural sound. For anyone who values craftsmanship and pure analog listening, this is a setup built to last.

Argon Audio TT-3 Plus is available in lacquer or real wood veneer finish. Dust cap and RCA cable included.

Simple Design, Serious Sound

If you can live without automation, you’ll struggle to find a better performer in this price range. The TT-3 Plus gets impressively close to the sound quality of Argon Audio’s award-winning flagship, the TT-4. The difference lies mainly in the slightly heavier chassis and even more refined built-in preamp of its big brother. But for most listeners, the TT-3 Plus hits a sweet spot between price, performance, and simplicity.

A very good-playing Ortofon 2M Red MM pickup is fitted from the factory, so you are ready to play straight away.

The Ortofon 2M Red cartridge ensures dynamic and detailed playback straight out of the box. And when it’s time to replace the stylus, you don’t need to swap the entire cartridge — simply replace the stylus, or even upgrade to a 2M Blue for a noticeable leap in precision and clarity.

Elegant Form, Functional Details

The TT-3 Plus is available in several refined finishes, including lacquered surfaces and real wood veneer, adding a touch of Scandinavian minimalism to your listening setup. A dust cover and high-quality RCA cable are included, so you’re ready to start spinning vinyl right away.

Unlike many entry-level turntables, the anti-skating and speed control are conveniently adjusted via rotary knobs — no need to lift the platter or move belts manually. Small details like these make daily use smoother and more enjoyable.

The Argon Audio TT-3 Plus is a serious hi-fi turntable, which comes ready to play with a good factory-fitted Ortofon 2M pickup, and a built-in RIAA amplifier, so you can connect it to all systems and active speakers, even if they do not have a dedicated turntable input.

Built for Vinyl Enthusiasts

Under the surface, the TT-3 Plus hides some clever engineering. Its carbon fiber tonearm provides both lightness and rigidity, helping the cartridge track grooves with precision and minimal distortion. Argon Audio’s ATS (Anisotropic Torsion Stabilizer) technology makes the arm extra torsionally stable, ensuring even better conditions for high-end cartridge upgrades down the line.

The Argon Audio TT-3 Plus is a solid quality turntable with serious technical solutions throughout.

Whether you’re rediscovering your vinyl collection or starting fresh, the Argon Audio TT-3 Plus combines modern practicality with classic analog charm. It’s proof that great sound doesn’t have to be complicated — just well designed.
