Adam Audio A7V 7" Active Nearfield Studio Monitor  - Single Overview:

A New Industry Standard
The A7V is a contemporary 2-way monitor that represents the evolution of ADAM Audio’s award winning A7X. It features a 7” Multi-Layer Mineral woofer and rotatable X-ART tweeter, which is made by hand in Berlin.

DSP-based voicing, equalization and room correction options can be controlled remotely and in real time via the free-to-download A Control software, and updatable firmware allows for new filters and tunings to be implemented over the lifetime of the monitor.

Features

• German Handmade Precision X-ART Tweeter with rotatable HPS waveguide
• 7'' Woofer (Multi-Layer Mineral)
• Cumulated Amp. Power Peak: 130 W
• Frequency Response @ -6 dB: 40 Hz - 45 kHz
• Max. peak SPL per speaker at 1 m: 105 dB SPL

 

A Control Remote Software
The DSP-based functionality of all A Series monitors can be controlled remotely and in real time over ethernet using A Control.

 

 

 

Rotatable HPS Waveguide & X-ART Tweeter
Made from a new glass fiber polymer compound, the HPS waveguide enables the X-ART tweeter to disperse sound in space with controlled consistency.

 

 

 

Bass Reflex System, Cabinets and Mounting
The new A Series cabinets build on the heritage of ADAM Audio and the AX Series in particular.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Automated Room Correction with Sonarworks
ADAM Audio is proud to partner with Sonarworks on an automated room correction solution that runs directly on the DSP of A Series monitors.

 

 

 

Hybrid Amplification
The A Series combines the best of both digital and analog worlds.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Multi-Layer Mineral Woofer [MLM]
The latest materials and advanced analysis and design processes have led to the development of our new long-throw woofers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Voicings
A “Voicing” is a pre-defined sound profile of an A Series monitor. On the back panel, you will find two different selections, “UNR” and “Pure”.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Room Adaptation
On the back panel of A Series speakers, you will find four bands of room adaptation equalization: Bass, Desk, Presence and Treble.

 

 

 

 

Digital Signal Processing
The A Series capitalizes on the transformative power of DSP-based electronics to provide greater tuning precision than analog-only speakers.
