	SoundStage! Equipment Review - Amphion argon2 Loudspeakers (3/2002)
		Amphion is based in Finland, and when I first saw their speakers at the High End show in Germany, I was intrigued by the flaring front baffle -- it was an indicator that there was more to the argon2 than met my eye.
		According to Amphion, one of their goals is to get the crossover out of what they consider a critical range of human hearing: 2kHz to 5kHz.
		Amphion rates the argon2, which is magnetically shielded, as having a sensitivity of 85dB and a nominal impedance of 8 ohms with a minimum dip to 7 ohms.

		Amphion was the son of Zeus and Antiope, who played so melodiously upon his lute that the stones of the field danced their way into the walls and houses of Thebes of their own accord.
		Amphion's philosophy is to keep things as simple as possible in the electrical domain by solving most problems through its speakers' acoustical design.
		Amphion claims that the speakers' free-field response (what you get in an anechoic chamber) and their energy response (what you get in a genuine listening room) are "surprisingly similar, sometimes even almost identical." That's not so modest a claim as all those modifiers might make it seem.

	Acoustics Engineering - Amphion
		The Amphion is a compact power amplifier, intended for acoustical measurements in the field or laboratory.
		All controls and connectors are placed on the front panel, enabling you to set up the Amphion very quickly, and to operate it in horizontal or vertical position, outside or inside its flight case.
		Operating at a distance of up to 100 m, the remote control can be used to switch the built-in pink or white noise generator, to change the gain, or to select 1 of 2 loudspeaker sound sources, thus allowing a reduction of measurement setup time.

		Amphion specifications can also specify a visualization of the appearance of a solar system scene at a particular time.
		For this application, Amphion's theory of the NAIF library was inadequate in that it did not deal with stellar aberration, so he modified slightly the Amphion-generated program.
		Amphion has also been used in the study of the various phases of the Moon and Mars.

	Stereophile: Amphion Helium² loudspeaker
		Thus, according to Amphion, all the frequencies to which the ear is most sensitive are produced by the tweeter.
		Amphion claims that their speakers' responses in anechoic chambers and real listening rooms are very similar.
		With the Amphion, those excerpts grew longer and longer; with each excerpt, I got so involved with the music that I was reluctant to move on to the next.

	Amphion
		Amphion is an automatic program synthesis system; that is, a system that writes source code programs given high-level problem specifications.
		Amphion allows you to program at the level of abstract problem specifications instead of at the tedious level of programming language syntax.
		Amphion is designed to be easily extensible, so that as NAIF adds new functionality to the SPICE system, Amphion can be augmented to generate programs calling new SPICE components.
