Westlake Village, Calif. — ADAM Audio is now shipping the new A5 Powered Monitor in the US market. Built on the heritage of ADAM’s professional studio monitors, the A5 is designed for multimedia listening, mobile recording, broadcast, and surround applications. It features a compact size, three attractive finishes, and an affordable price point of $699 per pair.

Powered by 2x25W on-board amplifiers, the A5 combines ADAM’s renowned ART (Accelerated Ribbon Technology) folded ribbon tweeter with a 5″ woofer constructed of a carbon fiber and RohacellÂ® sandwich. The front of the A5 sports dual ports for surprising low frequency response down to 55Hz (can be extended to 31Hz with the addition of the new compact Sub7 subwoofer), metal grills for added durability, as well as power and gain controls.

The rear panel includes balanced XLR jacks, unbalanced RCA jacks, and a new development by ADAM called Stereolink. This new technology connects speakers with input and output jacks allowing the user the option to control the overall volume of the system from any one speaker’s gain control, making the A5 a flexible desktop audio system.

The A5 comes in a choice of traditional ADAM matte black ($699 pr) or new glossy “piano” finishes in black or white ($769 pr). Optional wedge-like stands enhance desktop use by allowing the A5 to be positioned at an upward angle. In addition to desktop audio recording applications, the A5 is well suited to mobile and broadcast applications, surround set-ups, and multimedia uses such as gaming and home audio.
