Studio monitors

Single nearfield/desktop monitor

Review: With the A3X monitor, ADAM present their smallest monitor to date, making it perfectly suited for all environments where space is limited but sound shouldn't be constricted. The A3X monitor combines a tiny footprint with the much acclaimed ADAM sound quality by using the X-ART tweeter for the higher frequencies and a guarantee for crystal clear music reproduction.

A 4.5" (basket) driver handles the lower registers. The diaphragm is made from carbon fiber, a material that is very light but very stiff and therefore capable of delivering colouring-free sound. 2 built-in 25W amplifiers powers each of the drivers directly.

A very handy and exclusive technology found in the 2 smaller AX monitors is the Stereolink. This is accomplished by a pair of additional RCA connections that allow for a bypass of the second stereo channel to the other speaker. This new technology connects 2 A3X monitors in such a manner as to allow the user the option to control the overall stereo volume of the system from either speaker's gain control. This makes the A3X monitor a natural for mixer-less desktop applications where overall system volume needs to be adjusted easily.

The front of the A3X monitor sports dual ports for surprisingly low frequency response down to 60Hz. The front panel also has power and gain controls. The rear panel includes a tweeter gain control as well as balanced (XLR) jacks and unbalanced (RCA) jacks, allowing for greater connection flexibility. There are also 2 M6 (6mm) metric screw threads for stand/wall mounting.

Single nearfield/desktop monitor

Review: The small Adam A5 monitor managed to make itself a big name in both professional environments as well as in computer or desktop applications. A wealth of truly outstanding reviews and many awards helped to establish this speaker as one of the best small monitors and a great choice for the small studio. The similar dimensions and name could make one believe that the Adam A5X monitor is nothing more than a new version of the A5. A quick listening however leaves no doubt that the A5X is much more than that.

The Adam A5X monitor features the proprietary X-ART tweeter. The very data of this technology shows that it is at the forefront of what tweeters can accomplish. Numerous listening tests have confirmed this.

A 5.5" Midwoofer reproduces the frequencies below 2.5 kHz. The diaphragm is made from carbon fiber/rohacell/glass fiber. This composite material with minimum weight and maximum rigidity prevents break up resonances, resulting in an outstanding dynamic behaviour and impeccable sound characteristics.

Single nearfield monitor bundled with anti-vibration mat

Review: With the A7X monitor, Adam Audio proudly presents the evolution of a legend. The first aspect that distinguishes the old from the new model is the X-ART tweeter. The X stands for extended frequency response and thus for one of the features of the accelerating ribbon technology that has been drastically improved: the frequency response. It now extends all the way up to 50 kHz. In addition, the X-ART tweeter has a higher efficiency and higher maximum sound pressure levels.

The perfect integration with the lower frequencies has been achieved with a newly designed 7" midwoofer. It has been redesigned with a much bigger voice coil (1.5") and is driven by an amplifier with twice the power compared to its predecessor. This combination produces an amazing sound and pressure levels with an almost distortion-free musical reproduction.

Each driver has its own dedicated amplifier. A 50W A/B amp is responsible for the X-ART tweeter, while the midwoofer is being driven by a 100W PWM amp. The front panel includes a power switch and a control for the volume that retains the volume setting independently from the on/off switch.

On the rear panel are several additional controls: a gain for the high frequencies (-/+ 4 dB) and 2 shelf filters for high and low frequencies. To ensure greater compatibility, there are both XLR (balanced) and RCA (unbalanced) connectors.

As you know, over 90 of a speaker's radiated power is of frequencies below 200Hz. Enormous amounts of energy are dissipated. That energy is partially dissipated into the cabinet structure which in turn vibrates the supporting structure, ie floorboards and joists. Witness the bass thump from sounds from other rooms. A foam mat will absorb most of this low frequency energy. The manufacturer evaluated various formulations of foam rubber and found this to provide the greatest attenuation and also provide a greater definition to the sound within the studio.

The dimensions of the bundled mat: 400mm x 300mm x 75mm.

Bi-amplified active studio reference monitor speakers

Review: The Alesis MONITOR ONE ACTIVE MK2 (Pair) Bi-Amplified Studio Reference Monitors. Great accuracy and detailed response in a powered system that's truly affordable.
These biamplified reference monitors offer the incredibly accurate response that perfectly translates to every playback system. Each monitors internal active crossover and custom-designed dual amplifiers ensure an extremely consistent performance under a variety of different studio conditions and program material. The result is a broad, extremely flat frequency response, clear imaging with a wide sweet spot, high power handling and detailed high- and mid-frequency response that only a professional powered monitor can deliver. The Alesis M1 ACTIVE MKII woofer and tweeter were specifically designed for the most linear, low distortion response in powered monitoring applications. Its 6.5 inch woofer cone is formulated from non-woven carbon fibre. It's a material that has been used for the skins of combat aircraft wings, since it offers high tensile strength and low weight. In fact, carbon fibre is 25 lighter than polypropylene (the most common driver material) and hence provides quicker transient response in the low frequency range for superb bass response as well as a vast improvement in the detail of critical upper-mid frequencies. The Alesis M1 ACTIVE MK II 1 inch tweeter dome is made of pure silk, which offers a natural response that aids in preventing ear fatigue during long mix sessions. It also features an internal pole piece mounted phasing plug and is ferrofluid cooled to maintain the best balance of transient response to power handling. Two audiophile-quality amplifiers-a 75 watt woofer amp and a 25 watt tweeter amp-were developed for the M1 Active MkII, along with 8th order high- and low-pass electronic crossover filters. The crossover point was carefully chosen at a low 1500Hz, and produces an extremely wide dispersion zone as well as low midrange coloration. Also, the special time alignment circuitry that's been added to the tweeter section of this crossover allows the output of frequencies from the high and low drivers to occur in perfect synchronization, avoiding the time smear that's typical in less advanced powered speakers. In developing the M1 Active Mk II, the Alesis engineering team discovered that dual font-mounted ports provided the fastest, most coherent and extended low frequency augmentation. Also, the unique offset design of the high frequency driver allows for the flattest frequency and power response in a speaker that offers such wide dispersion. The M1 Active MkII has an attractive mirror-imaged, charcoal- toned cabinet and magnetically-shielded drivers that allow placement in close proximity with computer or video monitors, and offers the added benefit of blending beautifully into your studio's decor without being obtrusive. They may be mounted in either a horizontal or vertical placement to best fit your studio's requirements.

Review: Affordable, high-quality, passive studio monitors come with a flat frequency response for accurate mixes that translate to other playback systems.

These studio reference monitors build on the traditional features of the Monitor One, delivering a wide frequency range, clear imaging, high-power handling and excellent bass transient response, all at an affordable price.

The MKII does include some useful design imrovements and features. The Monitor One MK II includes 6.5" polypropylene low-frequency drivers that deliver tighter, more accurate bass response. These are matched with newly redesigned 1" pure silk-dome high frequency transducers that deliver a smooth and even response, provide more detail and a broader sound stage. The overall frequency response of the Monitor One MKII monitors has been increased at the top end, coupled with more efficient power handling. The cabinets of the Monitor One MkII have been redesigned and are now mirror image, left/right pair for symmetrical speaker placement. They also feature radiused edges for reduced edge diffraction, along with improved porting which delivers an improved low-frequency response. Alesis have included magnetic shielding to allow for their use in close proximity to video and computer monitors.
