German handmade Precision S-ART Tweeter with HPS Waveguide
4" Midrange Unit (Carbon Composite)
9“ Bass unit (Hexacone)
Amplifier Power RMS: 850 W
Frequency response: 32 Hz - 50 kHz
Max. SPL Per Pair at 1 m: ≥124 dB
AES3 Digital Inputs and various expansion options
Full description
The S3V is a three-way studio monitor optimized for vertical use and primarily designed for mid-range applications, although it can also be used in more compact listening environments.
Bass frequencies from 32 Hz to 250 Hz are handled by ADAM Audio's all-new 9-inch Extended Linear Excursion (ELE) LF driver, incorporating the company's equally groundbreaking Symmetrical Magnet Assembly (SMA) and delivering a powerful, extremely accurate low end that stretches move right down into the sub-bass region. Midrange and HF information is reproduced with equal analytical precision thanks to the combination of ADAM Audio's newly developed 4-inch DCH midrange driver and the highly refined S-ART folded band HF driver. Together with the brand new HPS waveguide, the latter offers high frequency reproduction with an extremely wide sweet spot with fine, highly detailed imaging and a natural sounding sense of depth.
The S Series' specially designed DSP optimizes the speaker crossovers to create linear responses for the entire spectrum as well as providing user equalization and room setting / voice functions. The DSP also handles the limiter-based high-frequency driver protection, processes the signals from the AES3 digital inputs, and will eventually facilitate various expansion options. Software updates can be easily performed via the associated USB port, which also allows users to connect computers and control the speakers' DSP functions via a software front-end.
The S3V's built-in amplification is generously specified, consisting of Class D units for the bass and mid drivers (500 W and 300 W RMS respectively) and a 50 W Class A / B amplifier for the S-ART tweeter.
Offering flawless reproduction of audio frequencies between 32Hz and 50kHz, the S3V is an excellent proposition for anyone requiring highly accurate imaging and localization from their reference monitors.
