Review: Quality studio monitors - First, if like me you're coming at these from the combo hi-fi and home studio angle, these are sold as single units like most studio monitors. This allows you to buy as many as you need for the channels you need, but that also means most people will need to order two of these at a time to avoid disappointment. This also allows you to calibrate the channels to each other as each unit has its own volume knob, so you can achieve perfect channel balance on these with a little effort. These are actually my first studio monitor purchase, so I'm unable to usefully compare them to competing products. They have however set a very high bar for what to expect from any nearfield monitors I buy in future, but I won't be looking again for a long time after buying these. Setting these up was extremely straightforward and easy even with no previous familiarity with the XLR plugs I needed to use for these - you just plug in and go. They are quite large, even though the T5Vs are the smallest model of the three so make sure you have the necessary desk space before purchasing these! You will ideally need however a pre-amp (NOT a power amp!) with XLR ports to run this from, so I purchased the SMSL RAW-MDA1 to use with these and this combo has gone strong for over a year now. I have experimented with the trim options on the back but these are designed to correct for acoustic deficiencies in your room rather than as preference switches, so you will probably need to leave them in their standard middle position. I get the impression the sound quality on these would spoil me when comparing them to competing products in the same price bracket. I originally purchased these because I needed something to be able to keep up with my expensive subwoofer - my previous purchase was clearly being left behind by it! These are not and have happily taken on far more of the bass work that was previously delegated to the subwoofer. Measurements claim these speakers are flat down to roughly 70Hz but my experience was unfortunately different because I seem to have an untreated null in this room at around 90Hz which messed this up a bit. Fortunately I could just up the crossover frequency on my sub and apply a generous DSP correction on the sub to fix this on my end by throwing brute force at the problem but these monitors are as vulnerable as any other to your environment screwing with their bass response so keep that firmly in mind. These same measurements claim a broad 2dB dip between 200Hz to 2000Hz which in my experience is audible and I configured a modest EQ to correct this. After trying more elaborate attempts to "fix" this I quickly discovered that I was harming the sound more than helping it, so don't be alarmed - these are overall very flat and even keel studio monitors and that very basic EQ was enough to completely flatten everything out for my picky audiophile needs. I could easily live with the stock sound on these, however and did indeed do that for a while before deciding on filling in the minor divot. I decided on these over the T7V or T8V because I already had a sub to handle low end but also because the other two would simply have been too big on this desk! On top of that, the bigger woofers on the T7V and T8V apparently struggle more with the midrange response, so this seemed the best purchase of the three. I also bought these for the chance to try out ribbon tweeters as I greatly enjoy my planar headphones. Adam Audio have signature ribbon drivers on all their speaker designs and even their cheapest budget range that these monitors actually are are no exception to this. These have the clean highs I expected from such a setup and are happily handling most of the work of the audio from 110Hz upwards without missing a beat. They're far from being overwhelmed by the subwoofer then, and pair up together very nicely. The woofer and tweeter blend together and neither overwhelm each other nor fall behind the other, and so they handle everything you throw at them well and make it look easy. Simply put, they're an exceptional pair of speakers for general use as well as their intended use as studio monitors and they are what I'd point anyone to when they want their first pair of serious speakers. They easily blow away anything else I've ever used and I'm very satisfied with them indeed.
Review: A Pair of German Speakers That Will Expose Your Worst Guitar Mistakes. - When you build a home recording setup, there is a dangerous temptation to buy speakers that sound like a nightclub PA system. Big, boisterous boxes that dump an obscene amount of fake, muddy bass into the room so everything sounds like a summer festival. That is fine if you just want to irritate your neighbors, but if you are actually trying to mix music or dial in guitar tones, it is useless. In March 2025, I bought a pair of ADAM Audio T5V studio monitors, and for a year and a half, they have handled everything in my setup with absolute perfection. My signal routing is a bit of a nerve center. I run my computer and my Neural DSP Quad Cortex straight into a Focusrite 2i2 interface, which then feeds this pair of monitors. Everything I play, create, or listen to comes directly through these two black cabinets. What makes them so brilliant is their complete, brutal honesty. They deliver a flat, clinical sound response with exceptional clarity. If you mess up a mix, or if your guitar tone has a hideous spike in the midrange, these speakers will not hide it behind a curtain of cheap, boosted bass. They lay the entire sonic picture out in front of you with surgically crisp detail. When I play through the amp and cab models on the Quad Cortex, the realism is staggering. You can hear every subtle nuance, from the pick attack right down to the room resonance of the cabinet simulation. Size-wise, they occupy the Goldilocks zone of studio gear. They aren't absurdly massive monoliths that devour your entire desk, but they aren't flimsy little tin cans either. The five-inch woofers are just large enough to give you a full, rich bottom end that actually carries weight. Furthermore, their dynamic range is magnificent. You can turn them up until the picture frames on the wall begin to vibrate, or you can whisper along with them late at night when the rest of the house is asleep. Either way, you get the exact same level of crisp, uncompromised detail without losing a single drop of clarity. They haven't struggled for a fraction of a second in eighteen months. Whether you are mixing a track or just jamming through a high-gain amplifier rig, they are an absolute triumph. Highly recommended.

**Q: Is this a single speaker or a pair?**
A: The listing is for the sale of a single speaker only. These are amazing speakers and we think they are the best you can buy at this price point, they sound amazing!

Kind Regards
AVC

**Q: HI, Why is it cheaper to buy two the same seperately, Verus buying a pair together?**
A: To entice you to spend more money

**Q: Is this easy to connect to a pc? my son who is a gamer and likes listening to music wants a decent speaker for his omen pc. will one speaker suffice?**
A: You will need some form of interface between the speakers and the PC, if he wants a quick connection studio monitors won't be the way to go, but they will be the best sounding speakers he can get.

**Q: Do these speakers require an amplifier, or is a USB interface alone enough?**
A: Hello,

The T5V is an Active speaker so has an amplifier built in. You can simply connect your Audio Interface's Line Output to the input of the speaker and not need to connect via an external amp.
