A3X
The smallest big sound ever...
With the A3X, ADAM Audio present their smallest monitor to date,
making it perfectly suited for all environments where space is
limited but sound shouldn’t be constricted. The A3X combines a tiny
footprint with the much acclaimed ADAM sound quality by using the
X-ART tweeter for the higher frequencies, a guarantee for crystal
clear music reproduction.
A 4.5” (basket) driver handles the lower registers. The diaphragm is
made from carbon fiber, a material that is very light but very stiff and
therefore capable of delivering colouring-free sound. Two built-in 25
Watt amplifiers powers each of the drivers directly.
Controls and Connectors
The front of the A3X sports dual ports for surprisingly low frequency
response down to 60Hz. The front panel also has power and gain
controls. The rear panel includes a tweeter gain control as well
as balanced (XLR) jacks and unbalanced (RCA) jacks, allowing for
greater connection flexibility.
Stereolink
A very handy and exclusive technology found in the two smaller
AX monitors is the Stereolink. This is accomplished by a pair of
additional RCA connections that allow for a bypass of the second
stereo channel to the other speaker.
This new technology connects two A3X speakers in such a manner
as to allow the user the option to control the overall stereo volume
of the system from either speaker’s gain control. This makes the A3X
a natural for “mixer-less” desktop applications where overall system
volume needs to be adjusted easily.
