Adam Audio A77H 3-Way Active Dual 7" Nearfield/Midfield Studio Monitor

One of the highlights of Adam's excellent range, the A77H is a three-way, 7-inch design featuring the brand's signature hand-made X-ART ribbon tweeters. Exceptional clarity, frequency response and versatility thanks to extensive DSP tuning options. Supplier's Notes: Incorporating two 7-inch woofers, a midrange driver, and ADAM Audio's X-ART tweeter, the A77H delivers an ultra-wide frequency range. The addition of the midrange driver helps produce clear sound in the most sensitive range of human hearing. Rotatable HPS waveguide technology and onboard DSP allow you to tune the sound for your precise requirements. ADAM Audio monitors have earned a worldwide reputation for the innovations that we have established in the field of loudspeaker technology. The DSP-based functionality of all A Series monitors can be controlled remotely and in real time over ethernet using A Control. The application can be downloaded free of charge for Windows and MacOS in the MyADAM user area upon registration of an A Series monitor. The backplate of A Series monitors offers a variety of equalization and tuning options, but quite often the backplate is not accessible from the listening sweet spot. Using A Control you can make changes to these settings from the comfort of your sweet spot and be confident in your decisions. For some users the backplate options might not offer enough choice and precision. Using A Control you can dial in exact tunings over six bands of parametric equalization and low and high shelf filters. Each filter band can be freely adjusted for gain, frequency and Q value to give the user complete freedom in perfecting the sound of the loudspeaker in the room. A Control facilitates our collaboration with industry leaders Sonarworks. Using the SoundID Reference option, calibration curves generated by the Sonarworks application can be imported into A Control and pushed directly to an embedded platform on A Series monitors. When this option is enabled, the calibration is happening directly on the monitor and thus no additional VSTs or software applications are required. It also means you are hearing calibrated audio regardless of your sound source. Made from a new glass fiber polymer compound, the A Series HPS waveguide enables the X-ART tweeter to disperse sound in space with controlled consistency. A Waveguide is a tapered recess that frames a tweeter to disperse sound in space in a more controlled manner. The A Series HPS (high-frequency propagation system) waveguide is constructed from resin and glass fibers, which are baked together under high temperatures to form a single piece that is specifically designed for X-ART dispersion characteristics. The waveguide is not easily excited by unwanted vibrations or resonances, contributing toward internal damping. In the horizontal domain, the waveguide is designed to match the dispersion angle of the X-ART tweeter to the woofers and midrange drivers in the crossover region. This results in a smoother, less distracting response when listening to the speakers off axis, supporting stability of the imaging and creating a larger usable "sweet spot". In the vertical domain, the waveguide's design reduces energy arriving on the surfaces of significant studio furniture, such as mixing consoles, desks or even the ceiling. These surfaces can potentially cause harmful reflections and ultimately comb-filtering. Handmade in Germany, the X-ART tweeter provides a precise transient response and reproduces the finest sonic details.AThis X-ART tweeter is used in every A Series speaker, providing detailed sound across the product line. The A Series introduces a rotatable HPS waveguide and X-ART tweeter. This means you can rotate the entire waveguide and tweeter module by 90 or 180 degrees and continue to benefit from the HPS technology whether you position the speaker horizontally or vertically. The new A Series cabinets build on the heritage of ADAM Audio and the AX Series in particular. A Series monitors feature a flared-port design that optimizes airflow and reduces port noise. With every cubic centimeter accounted for, the industrial inspired design can provide lower extension and higher efficiency in a smaller box. The cabinets have deeper beveling to further reduce diffraction and thicker baffle walls to reduce unwanted cabinet vibrations. All A Series speakers include an underside mounting interface, giving you the flexibility to mount A Series speakers wherever you need them.AAll models feature four M8 threaded screw holes (10mm depth) in a rectangular pattern of 127 mm x 70 mm. The A Series Mounting Plate is the perfect solution to combine the speakers with many third-party mounting options. ADAM Audio is proud to partner with Sonarworks on an automated room correction solution that runs directly on the DSP of A Series monitors. A Series speakers are designed to be adaptable to changing requirements, preferences, and environments. For many people, the environments in which they create music are multipurpose, doubling as a bedroom or living room where acoustic treatment is often not an option. Using A Control, you can push advanced filters directly to an embedded platform onboard the monitors to help compensate for imperfect room acoustics, and this platform supports filters from industry leaders Sonarworks. Using Sonarworks SoundID Reference software and a measurement mic, you can create calibration curves specifically for your room and run them directly on your A Series monitors. ADAM Audio and Sonarworks have worked side-by-side to deliver a pioneering integration that runs directly on A Series monitors. This negates the need for an additional DAW plugin, simplifying workflows and ensuring that your studio monitors are always using a calibrated filter regardless of the audio source or type. It also means that you do not need to worry about your audio source, as the calibration is taking place directly on the monitor's embedded platform. In order to help as many people as possible experience this new technology, ADAM Audio and Sonarworks are happy to share details of an extended 60-day SoundID Reference trial for A Series customers. The trial license is available to A Series customers who register their speakers in the MyADAM user area. It offers the full functionality of SoundID Reference, including the ability to export calibration profiles so they can be imported to A Control and transferred to the loudspeakers' DSP.
