Adam Audio A4V Active Nearfield Monitor
The A4V is a two-way speaker incorporating a 4-inch long-throw woofer made from the same Multi-Layer Mineral (MLM) fibers as other A Series speakers plus the classic X-ART tweeter. Onboard DSP-based tuning capabilities let you easily dial in the perfect sound for your space.
With a frequency range of 52 Hz to 45 kHz, the A4V can accommodate a broad spectrum of audio applications—from producing podcasts to mixing string quartets—and will fit well within immersive and 3D setups.
- German Handmade Precision X-ART Tweeter with rotatable HPS waveguide
- 4” Woofer (Multi-Layer Mineral)
- Total Peak Amp. Power: 130 W
- Frequency Response @ -6 dB: 52 Hz – 45 kHz
- Maximum SPL per speaker at 1 m: 100 dB SPL
ADAM Audio monitors have earned a worldwide reputation for the innovations that we have established in the field of loudspeaker technology. Here you can explore the technology of the A4V.
A CONTROL REMOTE SOFTWARE
The DSP-based functionality of all A Series monitors can be controlled remotely and in real time over ethernet using A Control.
ROTATABLE HPS WAVEGUIDE & X-ART TWEETER
Made from a new glass fiber polymer compound, the HPS waveguide enables the X-ART tweeter to disperse sound in space with controlled consistency.
BASS REFLEX SYSTEM, CABINETS AND MOUNTING
The new A Series cabinets build on the heritage of ADAM Audio and the AX Series in particular.
AUTOMATED ROOM CORRECTION WITH SONARWORKS
ADAM Audio is proud to partner with Sonarworks on an automated room correction solution that runs directly on the DSP of A Series monitors.
HYBRID AMPLIFICATION
The A Series combines the best of both digital and analog worlds.
MULTI-LAYER MINERAL WOOFER [MLM]
The latest materials and advanced analysis and design processes have led to the development of our new long-throw woofers.
VOICINGS
A “Voicing” is a pre-defined sound profile of an A Series monitor. On the back panel, you will find two different selections, “UNR” and “Pure”.
ROOM ADAPTATION
On the back panel of A Series speakers, you will find four bands of room adaptation equalization: Bass, Desk, Presence and Treble.
DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING
The A Series capitalizes on the transformative power of DSP-based electronics to provide greater tuning precision than analog-only speakers.
