    Had theses for a few months now and could not be more satisfied. The lack of 0dB volume detent and LED positioning does show a (complete) lack of forethought. However, that aside these are a game changer. Since getting them monitoring is no longer an issue with almost perfect mixes every time. The TV5's and a good set of cans to check low end has made mixing so much easier.

    Good timing in finding this video. I"m looking for a smaller set of monitors to use when I can't use my 8 inchers. Looking for a pair that will sound great when crafting guitar tones. Was checking out the KRKs as well and so far this is the only video I've found that I know I can trust the opinions and advice from a guitar use perspective. I still need to check out the Focal Alpha 50 Evo 5 but I really do like how the Adam Audios sound in this price range. Thanks Keyan 🤘🤘🤘

    maybe this helps someone: if you have a audio interface plugged inbetween with 6,3mm output slots and a normal Aux headphone slot, go with the 6,3 to the XLR port. (instead of the RCA’s) It eliminated all crackling and hissing for me and now they‘re incredible!!

    liked my KRK rokit 5 G4 a lot I was amaaazed by their mid-highs quality coming from a logitech 2.1 "pc home theater" setup they lacked bass tough, upgraded to A7V quite the expensive upgrade...and they sounded really bad at 1st they need burn-in (explained on adam audio channel) and on the A7V you absolutely need to read manual and tweak the rear switches for your room or they will sound weird and hollow, once that "pro stuff" is done they sound beautiful (after 2 days I'm not there yet but 95% mostly need to change their height) the A7V have crazy 3d positioning if you listen to accoustic music like a movie score or rock band you can immediately tell which instrument was were in the room, on electronic music the stereo effects when sound moves from left to right are perfect you "see" the sound moving I'm sure the T7V are also great, today a friend told someone of my purchase, that guy is 25 years into music fully treated room etc...and he told him he threw everything else away and only has adam audio now even for his TV

    Would you choose a used pair (good condition) of A5X monitors for around $450-$500 or would you choose a used pair (also in good condition) of T5V monitors for around $300? My music room is smallish at roughly 9x14x8 and my use case is the same as yours, more or less. I'm a guitar player looking to track demos and play through the monitors via audio interface and I eventually want to work my way up to producing and maybe releasing my own music once I get better at mixing.

    Yes, try some. Headphones will never be even close to giving you correct stereo imaging, because if you pan one source 100% left, your right ear should still hear it, but quieter, which is not the case with headphones. But be ware that if you mix on monitors, your room will start to play at least as big of a role as your monitors

    btw I don't know if it they added this on the A7V or if it's so subtle on T7V people don't notice but my A7V do have a notch on the volume knob but not like you expect it's more like a "slow" when you turn it but it's there if I turn with very light force the knob will stop at center not really a concern unless your sound source is too weak because it's recommended from what I've seen to have your source at max power and the amplifier low so my monitors are at minimum volume and the PC almost at max but not quite

  • @SurrealisticEvening

    2 жыл бұрын

    Exactly, specifically the T5V here has a peaking in the treble frequencies above 5 kHz and one should bring it down a few db by means of EQ, otherwise they are too bright, certainly not "non ear fatiguing" as the marketing department of Adam Audio suggests regarding the AMT tweeters and the reviewer here reproduces. Other than that, it's a pretty good nearfield monitor considering the price and certainly a better engineered speaker compared to the much older A5X. I would not recommend the A series, its been nearly 10 years since its first appearance and they are redundant in (almost) 2022, there are much better and competitively priced designs nowadays.
