ADAM Audio A5X Active Studio Monitor (SINGLE)

Description

The A5X is popular among professionals working in television studios and remote broadcast vans. The A5X can also be found in numerous home/project studios around the world. Its open, powerful sound makes the A5X a trustworthy and useful tool for multimedia applications as well.

Like all models of the AX-Series, the A5X is equipped with ADAM Audio‘s proprietary X-ART tweeter. One 5.5“ bass/midrange woofer works below 2.5kHz and is driven by a 1.5“ voice coil and a powerful 50 Watt PWM amplifier. Its acoustic qualities give you a clear picture of the smallest changes in your mix and the sonic results. Despite all that it does, the A5X is not fatiguing in long studio sessions.

Stereolink

The ‘Stereolink’ is a useful feature for desktop DAWs. Two additional input and output jacks for the second stereo channel allow you to control the volume for both monitors using the volume control of only one loudspeaker. The volume control of the other monitor only affects its own volume in order to easily compensate for differences in listening distance. Unlike the typical master-slave configuration, each A5X monitor is fully equipped and can function either as a master or a slave unit.

BENEFIT TO THE CUSTOMER

• Allows longer operation with fewer signs of fatigue
• Their breakup is prevented by the folded diaphragms, distortions are effectively reduced to a minimum
• Advanced dynamic range due to acoustically effective diaphragm surface that is 2.5 times bigger (compared to a classic tweeter according to the piston principle)
• Direct, fast response in the high-range even with complex transients
• Excellent transient response even at high sound levels without breakup of the diaphragm
• High resolution of the stereo image
• Low-distortion amplification at both low and high volume levels
• Unbiased reproduction in a wide frequency band
• Powerful, compression-free sound reproduction even at very high sound levels
• Allows optimal adaptation to acoustically difficult listening environments or individual preferences
• Simple and symmetric volume control on the front panel
• Optimized for balanced and unbalanced line signals
• Acoustically optimized cabinet geometry
• Reduction of unwanted reflections on the cabinets
• Reduction of early reflections on the surfaces of, e.g. mixing consoles, desks, etc.
• Very easy to use
• Compact cabinet dimensions
• Fits every desktop
• Space saving positioning at any height
