One of the highlights of the T5V is its flat frequency response, a trait coveted by audiophiles and studio professionals. But ADAM Audio offers a cherry on top, with a tweakable frequency response curve that can be adjusted 2dbi up or down for high and low frequencies. This grants the listener the power to tailor the sound to their specific tastes or room acoustics. It allows you to compare the performances of different speakers before even laying your ears hands on them. For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs. I use these mostly for metal music and some electronic stuff etc. I have had these monitors about 4 months. Good time to write review. The T5V features a 5-inch woofer that is capable of producing deep, rumbling low end, and a 1.9-inch tweeter that delivers clarity in the high end. The new U-ART accelerated ribbon tweeter is mated to a precision waveguide with the same dispersion-control attributes as the High Frequency Propagation (HFP) waveguide used in Adam Audio's flagship S Series monitors. The U-ART tweeter provides you with an incredibly wide sweet spot. This means you are free to move around your desk knowing you will hear the same frequencies while mixing. The compact design of the T5V ensures it can be comfortably fitted onto any desktop and workspace.

The ADAM Audio T5V Studio Monitor is designed to produce accurate sound, allowing you to hear frequencies clearly. This allows you to create clean, punchy, and professional mixdowns and productions. The T5V Studio Monitor provides you with fine tune controls that allow you to tailor the frequency response to perfectly suit the room or position they are in.

With its 5 inch woofer the bass-frequency response of the T5V extends to 45 Hz. The new U-ART tweeter, a breakthrough solution for use in high-resolution recording and mixing on a budget, goes up to 25 kHz and is mated to a precision waveguide with the same dispersion-control attributes as the High Frequency Propagation (HPS) waveguide used in ADAM Audio's flagship S Series monitors. The waveguide's highly uniform dispersion of high frequencies provides an incredibly wide sweet spot that frees you from being glued to a rigid mix position while working.

This is a problem because it means that Spinorama alone, unfortunately, won't give us all we need. Placement and reflections play an equally important role there too. The ADAM T5V is a highly affordable two-way nearfield monitor and optimised for small control rooms. Weighing in at only 5.7kg, the Adam T5Vs are equally well suited on the move. If you frequent multiple studio locations or travel aboard, there's no reason why you can't use these as part of a mobile production setup without compromising clarity and quality. Excellent acoustic characteristics, small dimensions and an outstanding cost/performance ratio make this studio monitor perfectly suited for use in small control rooms in music, video and broadcast production too. Sub ReadyThere's tons of detail, the soundstage is easy to grasp, vocals are absolutely impeccable and the bass is great. Measurements are compliant with latest speaker research into what can predict the speaker preference and is standardized in CEA/CTA-2034 ANSI specifications. Likewise listening tests are performed per research that shows mono listening is much more revealing of differences between speakers than stereo or multichannel. The colormap provides you the locations with the best (green) and worst (red) listening experience. Each model in the T Series uses ADAM’s outstanding U-ART (Unique Accelerated Ribbon Tweeter) high-frequency drivers seen in their previous AX range, and feature an inbuilt DSP-controlled crossover and EQ, with multi-way rear analogue connections. The only logistical issue worth mentioning, particularly if you’re considering the T5V for home use, is one that applies to the vast majority of studio monitors: the separate gain controls on the rear of each speaker aren’t intended for use like a volume control on a hi-fi amplifier. Instead, you set the T5V’s gain controls to a level that produces an acceptable maximum volume when your laptop, PC or whichever device is connected has its volume set to 100%, then control the volume solely via the connected device.

Excellent acoustic characteristics, small dimensions and an outstanding cost/performance ratio make this studio monitor perfectly suited for use in small control rooms in music, video and broadcast production.

At this point, I thought that if there was a tool that combined both the Spinorama with the room acoustics data, it'd be extremely useful. The waveguide’s highly uniform dispersion of high frequencies provides an incredibly wide sweet spot that frees you from being glued to a rigid mix position while working. A beveled cabinet with a rear-firing bass reflex port and a small footprint allows placement anywhere in your room, no matter how small, and contains built-in DSP-controlled driver crossovers and equalization as well as multi-way analog connections. Powered with a 50 W Class D amplifier for the woofer and a 20 W Class D amplifier for the U-ART tweeter, the T5V produces SPLs of up to 106 dB per pair. Lightweight and Portable The excellent acoustic characteristics, refined dimensions and superb cost/performance ratio make this monitor ideal for use in most situations, whether it’s music, video or broadcast production. These look incredible for the price. The tweeter adds contrast to the overall look, there are no visible screws in the front, the angled edges add curves to the design, without which this would have looked like a plain old boxy speaker. The new U-ART tweeter, a breakthrough solution for use in high-resolution recording and mixing on a budget, goes up to 25 kHz and is mated to a precision waveguide with the same dispersion-control attributes as the High Frequency Propagation (HPS) waveguide used in ADAM Audio’s flagship S Series monitors.

These make me want to just sit all day and listen to them, like leave everything else and just keep listening to them. Fortunately, now we have the Spinorama data for a bunch of quite popular speakers. Pierre Aubert put all this untidy data together and put it into https://www.spinorama.org/. This is a stunning source. Pretty valuable stuff from him right there. Overall they are very analytical, full sounding and fairly flat. A good recording is going to sound very very nice. A bad one will get "busted". Another is that i would much appreciate if there was a distinct position for 0db as the volume pot moves freely. I can say with confidence that the Adams are the best in this price range. They clearly sound as they are "upper shelf" equipment.This is why most A-class brands (like SVS, Bang & Olufsen, etc) often come up with room correction features, adjusted either manually or automatically. The EQ adapts itself to the placement (room, corner, center, etc) for a better (deeper and more accurate) sound. Which is great.
