A5X

Like all other models of the AX-Series the A5X 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

2.5kHz. The diaphragm is made from Carbon fiber/
Rohacell/Glass fiber, which is the same composite
structure shared in the next two bigger models. This
material with minimum weight and maximum rigidity
prevents break up resonances, resulting in an outstanding
dynamic behaviour and impeccable sound characteristics.

Stereolink

A very handy and exclusive technology found in the
two 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 two A5X speakers 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 A5X a natural for “mixer-less”
desktop applications where overall system volume needs
to be adjusted easily.

Desktop Stand

ADAM Audio also offers desktop stands that have been
specifically designed to optimize the acoustics of the A5X
when used in desktop applications and alike. The stands
minimize reflections from the desktop and maximize the
amount of direct sound.

Review Samples

“A sparkling and lively desktop monitor with an open,
powerful character. Good filters and practical ergonomics
as well as useful equipment make ADAMs A5X an ideal
partner in multimedia nearfield sound.”

(Stereo, 10/10)

“The ADAM A5Xs‘ sonic capabilities will unfold first and
foremost in acoustical music work. The monitor will give
feedback about the smallest changes that are done during
the mix and will relentlessly reveal musical and technical
shortcomings without being fatiguing in long studio
sessions. The ADAM A5X is one of the few reasonably
priced compact monitors in the market that will not only
satisfy musicians but at the same time will also meet
the professional requirements of commercial studios,
broadcast vans and stations.”
