ADAM Audio A4V 4-inch Powered Studio Monitor

ADAM Audio A4V Overview Audio professionals looking for a high-quality nearfield monitor will be impressed by the Black Adam Professional Audio A4V, a professional 4″ 2-way studio monitor speaker that produces rich, spacious, and enveloping sound. It’s ideal for small studio spaces, short listening distances, and immersive multispeaker configurations. The 4″ Multilayer Mineral (MLM) woofer is powered by a 110W RMS Class-D amplifier, while the X-ART tweeter with HPS waveguide is driven by a 20W Class-AB amplifier, providing an ultrawide frequency range (52 Hz to 45 kHz). The movable High-Frequency Propagation System (HPS) waveguide technology and built-in DSP enable you to place the display horizontally or vertically while fine-tuning the speaker to your specific needs. Rotatable HPS Waveguide with X-ART Tweeter The ADAM Audio HPS (high-frequency propagation system) waveguide technology allows tweeters to disseminate sound evenly over the horizontal axis while remaining concentrated vertically. The A Series has a rotating HPS waveguide architecture. To continue to benefit from HPS waveguide technology, adjust A Series tweeters in 90-degree increments, whether the speakers are positioned horizontally or vertically. The A Series HPS Waveguide is built of a novel glass-fiber polymer composition, which contributes to a clean sound devoid of undesired resonance. The ADAM Audio X-ART tweeter serves as the heart of the rotatable HPS waveguide. The X-ART tweeter, produced in Germany, has a precise transient response and reproduces the finest acoustic characteristics. This X-ART tweeter is utilized in all A Series speakers, ensuring a clear and consistent sound throughout the line. Multilayered Mineral Woofer A Series woofers are made from a special combination of mineral stone fibers that have been baked together to form a lightweight yet extremely sturdy material. The mineral content, layering, and shape of each cone are unique to the driver used in each model. This material, along with a novel magnet arrangement, allows A Series woofers to generate high power with little distortion and a clear bass end. Hybrid Amplification The A Series blends the finest of the digital and analog worlds. The woofer is powered by a Class-D amplifier, which contributes to linear performance while decreasing distortion. The amplifier was chosen precisely for its power and efficiency, both in terms of energy usage and audio reproduction. Low thermal dissipation enables a smaller heat sink, allowing for more investment in the A Series’ excellent power and performance. The tweeter is driven by a Class-AB amplifier, which allows for smooth, realistic high-frequency reproduction. The amplifier is tailored for its operating range, resulting in a finely tuned, correctly aligned speaker. To get to this stage, ADAM Audio conducted extensive measurements and listening sessions, testing several amplifiers and amplifier components. DSP-Based Electronics The A Series leverages the revolutionary potential of DSP-based electronics to deliver higher tuning precision and predictability than analog-only speakers. With software that can be updated over Ethernet, you can anticipate ADAM Audio’s latest DSP-based capabilities to be integrated over time, including additional filter kinds and functions, as well as alternate voicings. Room Adaptation The rear panel of A Series speakers has four bands of room-adaptation equalization: bass, desk, presence, and treble. Each band is tunable in preset stages, providing more than 100 tuning possibilities to assist in compensating for the common acoustic issues caused by speaker placement. Voicings A voicing is a preconfigured sound profile for the A Series monitors. The rear panel offers two options: UNR and Pure. Here you will also discover the Ext option, which is dedicated to the additional capabilities that A Control provides via the Ethernet connection. ADAM Audio’s Uniform Natural Response (UNR) is a dynamic and natural-sounding response curve derived from their legendary legacy products, including the AX Series. It lends itself to production, composition, and songwriting since its engaging and present sound allows for greater creativity and flow. It’s also an excellent choice for when you just want to listen to some nice music through your speakers. Pure is an extremely precise and neutral-sounding choice. This is the flat setting, which is perfect for mixing and mastering since you must be aware of all subtleties and rely on an accurate portrayal from your speakers. The Ext option is for the additional capability that comes with control via the Ethernet connection. Using a control’s six-band EQ, a bespoke voicing may be constructed and sent to the monitor. A Control (Real-Time Remote Control). A control software, available for free download, allows remote and real-time control of all A Series monitors’ DSP-based features over Ethernet. Customers who have registered their A Series monitors on www.adam-audio.com can obtain a Control for Windows and MacOS from the MyADAM section of their website.  After downloading and installing, you may alter equalization and delay settings for several speakers in your studio from different positions. If you’re not near a fader or a physical interface, you can control monitor levels remotely while working. Remote control features are especially beneficial in multifunctional spaces, letting you ensure that the voicing, EQ, and other settings are just how you want them. Room Correction and Sonarworks Integration A Series speakers are meant to adapt to changing needs, tastes, and situations. Using the A Control software, you may send complex filters straight to an integrated platform on the displays to adjust for poor room acoustics. This embedded platform is compatible with Sonarworks filters, which are developed by industry leaders. You may adjust your speakers for a new environment or changing tastes by using Sonarworks software and a measuring microphone. Bass Reflex System, Cabinets, and Mounting The new A Series cabinets draw on ADAM Audio’s legacy, particularly the AX Series. A Series cabinet includes deeper beveling to decrease diffraction. Thicker baffle walls reinforce the cabinets and decrease internal vibrations, while a flared port design improves airflow and lowers port noise. All A-Series speakers contain an underneath mounting interface, allowing you to position them anywhere you need them.
