Description
Professional ADAM Monitoring for the Budget-conscious Studio Flagship of the T Series, ADAM Audio’s affordable line of professional 2-way active studio monitors, the T8V features an 8 polypropylene low-frequency driver that delivers bass extension down to an impressive 39Hz, while the company’s U-ART accelerated-ribbon tweeter provides pristine highs extended up to 25kHz — quite remarkable for a monitor in this price range. The tweeter’s broad, uniform dispersion pattern is assisted by a precision waveguide modeled on the High Frequency Propagation (HPS) waveguide used in ADAM’s premium S Series studio monitors, which provides an impressively wide sweet spot that liberates you from being constrained to a rigid listening position. The T8V’s beveled cabinet features a rear-firing bass reflex port affixed to a thick metal backplate that houses the analog input connections and DSP-controlled driver crossovers and equalization. The woofer’s 70W Class D amplifier, in combination with the 20W Class D tweeter Sweetwater is an Authorized ADAM Audio Dealer Genuine Open Box Item Sweetwaters 2-year warranty ADAM Audio T8V 8-inch Powered Studio Monitor Active Vertical 2-way Nearfield Monitor with 70W 8 Woofer and 20W U-ART Accelerated-Ribbon Tweeter Professional ADAM Monitoring for the Budget-conscious Studio Flagship of the T Series, ADAM Audio’s affordable line of professional 2-way active studio monitors, the T8V features an 8 polypropylene low-frequency driver that delivers bass extension down to an impressive 39Hz, while the company’s U-ART accelerated-ribbon tweeter provides pristine highs extended up to 25kHz — quite remarkable for a monitor in this price range.

The woofer’s 70W Class D amplifier, in combination with the 20W Class D tweeter amp, enables a pair of T8Vs to achieve an impressive maximum SPL of 118dB at one meter. The T8V’s extended frequency response, robust dynamic range, exemplary transient response, broad sweet spot, and compact footprint make it ideally suited for use in small control rooms for music production, video post, and broadcast applications. It’s a perfect monitoring solution, considering the modest budgets that many facilities have to work with.8 polypropylene low-frequency driver The drivers in ADAM Audio studio monitors benefit from years of in-house research and development and take advantage of the latest advances in technology and materials science. The woofer in the T8V is engineered to deliver optimized low-frequency reproduction with extended dynamic range and freedom from coloration. It incorporates a rigid, yet low-mass polypropylene driver cone; a highly efficient magnet assembly and precisely aligned voice coil; and an optimized driver chassis/basket design. The T8V’s 8 woofer extends response down to 39Hz, making the speaker a suitable choice for nearfield monitoring in small control rooms, with or without a subwoofer. If more low-end extension is desirable, ADAM Audio’s Sub8 and Sub8 subwoofers pair perfectly with the T8V.The U-ART accelerated-ribbon tweeter Instead of producing sound with a piston-like diaphragm like most loudspeakers, ADAM Audio’s U-ART accelerated-ribbon tweeter uses a pleated diaphragm that prevents distortion by moving air four times faster than the folds themselves are moving. Built to the tightest tolerances, the U-ART tweeter delivers ultra-low distortion and extends the frequency range up to 25kHz, enriching the soundfield with stunning detail and faithfully conveying every nuance of the source material so you can work over long periods without listening fatigue.ADAM Audio: elevating the state of the art From its 1999 launch in Berlin, ADAM Audio has built a solid reputation among the pro audio cognoscente. The engineers at Sweetwater know that a superior speaker system has superior components, and this is one area where the company has a distinct edge. With years of R&D behind each proprietary driver, ADAM Audio’s custom driver technology expresses itself in breakthroughs such as their X-ART (eXtended Accelerating Ribbon Technology) tweeter, which is based on a groundbreaking 1960s invention, the Heil Air Motion Transformer — and in fact, was the main impetus for the formation of ADAM Audio. The X-ART tweeter became the key to ADAM’s signature transparent, high-definition sound and the core development of ADAM’s proprietary designs going forward. Embracing, exploiting, and working with modern materials has allowed ADAM Audio to formulate loudspeaker components that continually elevate the state of the art in studio monitor design. Materials such as rare-earth magnets and high-strength diaphragm foils have increased reliability, enhanced performance, and made possible new driver geometry. As compared with conventional driver technology, Adam drivers deliver optimized radiation characteristics, lower distortion, and higher efficiency. Along with installations in a growing number of top studios, ADAM Audio’s monitor range has garnered rave reviews from audio experts and recording engineers worldwide. If you’re considering an upgrade to world-class monitoring, you’ll be in good company with ADAM Audio monitors.ADAM Audio T8V Active Nearfield Studio Monitor Features: Vertical 2-way system with 1 x 8 polypropylene woofer and U-ART tweeter U-ART accelerated-ribbon tweeter with precision HPS waveguide Large rear-firing bass reflex port Highly efficient 90W Class D bi-amplification Linear frequency response of 36Hz–25kHz Maximum peak sound pressure per pair at 1m ≥ 118dB Analog XLR and RCA inputs 2-year warranty; optional extension to 3 years with product registration Sold individually SpecificationDetail Powered Yes Power Configuration Bi-amped Quantity Single LF Driver Size 8 Woofer LF Driver Type Polypropylene HF Driver Size 1.9 Tweeter HF Driver Type U-Art Accelerated-ribbon LF Driver Power Amp 70W HF Driver Power Amp 20W Total Power 90W Class D Frequency Response 33Hz-25kHz Maximum Peak SPL 118 dB SPL @ 1m Input Types 1 x XLR, 1 x RCA Enclosure Type Rear Ported Height 15.75 Width 9.8 Depth 13.1 Weight 21.6 lbs.
