Infrequent Sound [sex.tex] technology: Adam Audio F5 Active Studio Monitor [nearfields], 2013, Designed & Engineered in Germany

FEATURE

X-ART tweeter, handmade in Berlin:

- Allows longer operation with fewer signs of fatigue

- Their breakup is prevented by the folded diaphragms, distortions are effectively reduced to a minimum
- Advanced dynamic range due to acoustically effective diaphragm surface that is 2.5 times bigger (compared to a classic tweeter according to the piston principle)

The air velocity ratio of 4:1 during the sound generation by folded X-ART membrane :
- Direct, fast response in the high-range even with complex transients

Lightweight glass fiber/paper sandwich construction of the woofers:
- Excellent transient response even at high sound levels without breakup of the diaphragm

Vertical 2-way system with 5” woofer:
- High resolution of the stereo image

Spacious bass reflex ports on the front:

- Bass reproduction with very low compression
- Allows positioning close to walls

Linear frequency response of 52 Hz to 50 kHz:
- Unbiased reproduction in a wide frequency band

Maximum peak sound pressure level per pair in 1 m ≥106 dB:
- Powerful, compression-free sound reproduction even at very high sound levels

Simple, stepless room acoustic adjustments over 2-band EQ and high pass filter:
Allows optimal adaptation to acoustically difficult listening environments or individual preferences

Analog inputs over XLR/jack combination sockets and RCA:
- Optimized for balanced and unbalanced line signals

Auto Standby Mode:
- Energy saving when not in use

Acoustically optimized cabinet geometry:
- Reduction of unwanted reflections on the cabinets

Compact cabinet dimensions:
- Fits every desktop

Easily mounted on walls with original ADAM Audio wall mount (optional):
- Space saving positioning at any height
