Sonic Clarity!

The S2 comes with a 7.5" woofer with a HexaCone® membrane that remains stable at all frequencies and sound pressure levels. As a result, it delivers a very natural reproduction of the fundamental frequency range. It features front panel carrying controls for power, input sensitivity, tweeter level and two shelf filters for adjusting the speaker to the room properties. Overall it provides incredibly transparent and exact sound reproduction.

The S2A was primarily designed for high-end small to medium recording/monitoring environments in a near-field application, but can be easily used in any application where precise near-field monitoring is desired. It is one of ADAM's most ideally suited models for use in a 5.1 system.

A.R.T. - Accelerated Ribbon Technology
As a folded ribbon transducer, Adam's A.R.T. tweeter technology is different than anything offered in the Pro Audio industry. Essentially, it squeezes air in a 4:1 ration rather than moving it like a piston in a 1:1 ratio as found in "traditional" tweeter technology. The results? As stated before, this delivers an extremely open and detailed HF response and outstanding imaging with a HUGE sweet spot. They sound simply stunning.

HexaCone Woofer
The diaphragms of the woofer in the S2A are made of a special material called HexaCone. The core is a honeycomb structure made of a very light and stiff material called Nomex and is coated on both sides with Kevlar. These diaphragms are far stiffer and more rigid than other cone material resulting in a remarkably tight and accurate LF response.

I use these in a 600' project studio, primarily for mixing/mastering. The sound quality is amazing. The bass response is very impressive and the clarity and detail are incredible.

I have an Adam sub 8 as well but for nearfield monitoring you really only need these, they really do seem accurate all the way down to 40hz. close [-]
