Adam Audio T5V

The Adam Audio T5V is a professional studio monitor that brings Adam Audio’s proprietary A-ART ribbon tweeter technology to the accessible end of the professional monitoring market. The A-ART ribbon tweeter uses a folded-ribbon diaphragm that produces high frequencies with a physical surface area four times larger than its effective radiating area, dramatically reducing tweeter excursion and associated distortion. This results in high-frequency reproduction of extraordinary detail, speed, and accuracy that clearly distinguishes the T5V from competitors using conventional dome tweeters. The 5-inch carbon fiber/rohacell hybrid woofer provides fast, detailed bass and midrange response with the low mass and high rigidity that critical monitoring demands. The Class A/B power amplifiers deliver 50 watts to the woofer and 20 watts to the tweeter in a bi-amplified configuration. The front-firing bass port design minimizes the influence of wall proximity on low-frequency response, improving placement flexibility. High-pass shelf and low-shelf EQ controls allow acoustic compensation for room anomalies. Balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs provide professional and consumer source device compatibility. The T5V sets a benchmark for detail and accuracy in the sub-$200 studio monitor category.
