Awesome...

The Trigon Vanguard III and Volcano III power supply are absolutely awesome.

Sound stage, bass, detail retrieval, timing and airiness all wonderful.

Anyway thanks for the heads up on the Trigon combo (shockingly good kit)

Just swapped out my Icon Audio for this little superstar, and I am gobsmacked by the jump in performance ! Just superb in every regard. I want to add the Volcano battery pack now.........

Hi Gary, I've had a chance to audition the Phono stage, many thanks.........from the first bar I new it was a keeper.....It's deeply impressive in all areas

Kevin Scott | Castle Douglas | February 2019

I continue to be absolutely blown away by the phono stage – absolutely best acquisition, this thing makes such a difference, fabulous! It’s a totally different listening experience.

Bloody hell this Trigon Vanguard 111 is good isn’t it?!! it absolutely sings. Hurrah! You did say it would though. Please DON’T tell me that the power supply will render it twice as good.........?!!

It’s making me revisit some wonderful old vinyl as it is. And it’s all quieter too. We like that, ooh yes.

Just thought I’d let you know initial thoughts anyway, thanks Gary for yet another top recommendation.

Speak again soon no doubt...

All the best,

Jon

About the brand

Developing and producing high-quality audio components - nothing has changed in this guiding principle since Trigon Elektronik GmbH was founded in September 1996. The two founders, Ralf Kolmsee and Rainer Reddemann, are living their dream: by creating long-lasting, value-stable and affordable products that are not based on short-term trends, but rather achieve their quality through constant further development and perfection.

Audio components from Trigon show their outstanding sound properties at first glance. Its simple elegance soothes the eye so that the ear can concentrate fully on the result of the inner qualities. To do this, we insert selected, individually measured components of the highest quality at the points that are decisive for the sound. The high-quality workmanship also makes every Trigon product unmistakable.

The result is audio components "Made in Germany" that meet the highest standards in every respect and at the same time do not remain an unattainable dream. It's worth the effort: Our premium products offer you exactly the listening pleasure you've always been looking for.
