ADAM Audio T5V Two-Way 5-Inch Active Nearfield Monitor (Single) ADAM Audio

The T5V is a highly affordable two-way nearfield monitor and optimized for small control rooms. With its 5″ 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.

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. 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.

If you need to hear more bottom end, the T5V is compatible with the ADAM Sub7 and Sub8 subwoofers.

Newly developed URT Tweeter with HPS waveguide
Many of the technical innovations implemented in our flagship S Series range have been leveraged for use in the T Series line. The design for the T Series’ new U-ART 1.9″ tweeter is based on that used in ADAM Audio’s X-ART and S-ART tweeters employed respectively in the company’s iconic AX Series and S Series powered monitors. The U-ART tweeter 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.

New Class D amplifiers and DSP powered room EQs
Both T Series monitors also feature new Class D amplifiers [20 W for the tweeter and 50 W for the woofer], universal power supplies, and built-in DSP driver crossovers that are derived from technological advances achieved in the design and production of the S Series line. On the rear panels of the T5V and T7V, an XLR connector and RCA jack respectively accept +4 dBu balanced and unbalanced -10 dBV inputs. An associated 2-way switch selects which connector receives an input signal. The T5V and T7V can automatically accept AC voltages ranging from 100 to 240 V, at 50 to 60 Hz. Thus, the T5V and T7V can be connected to professional and prosumer recording systems, and to both balanced and unbalanced I/O boxes for DAWs – virtually anywhere in the developed world with plug and play ease.

Two 3-way switches boost or cut respective low and high frequencies ±2 dB and also provide a ‘flat’ setting. These EQ switches let you tailor the frequency responses to fine-tune their performance when mounting them on shelves, a table top, or a console bridge, and at various distances from nearby walls.
