The ADAM Audio S Series Behind the Scenes

[@Markus-nq4rc]

Coming home after a day at work, switching on my S3V's, start the music - pure joy to listen to them every single time.

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

So happy you're enjoying them, thanks for watching Markus!

[@BartekJuszczak]

I just bought these today, coming tomorrow. Unbelievably excited! I'll be using these as HiFI most of the time, with some room treatment. I went T5V + random sub -> A5X + SVS PB 1000 -> S3V. Never thought I'd have these. The amount of godly incredible times I've had with your speakers is astronomical. Riding the waves

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

Hi @BartekJuszczak, great to hear you came so far with our monitors! We hope they serve you well for many years 🙏 Greetings from Berlin!

[@mischfrequenz]

I own t8v and s2v.... the s2v is definetely from another world! In detail and clarity... Thanks Adam Audio! ...local hero :)

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

We hope they both serve you well for years to come. Thanks for watching 👊

I can't let go of my pair of S3Hs. Amazing partners for my daily work. Thank you ❤️💎

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

So happy you love them and thank you for choosing ADAM Audio 🙌

[@nicholasreeves5025]

Where excellence meets perfection...

Thanks for watching!

[@in_10z]

Looking forward to hearing these one day soon. Absolutely love my A7X...will be very hard to part with until they literally fall apart lol.

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

So happy you're loving the A7Xs 👊

[@QuickNick1985]

Really enjoying my S-Series Dolby Atmos Setup🥳, but waiting since many years for Dante/AES67 interface (already announced 2017) - come on ADAM Audio!🤙

[@tribute9851]

When will you finally release a well made app to control the S Series? Current S control is difficult to use and clunky and very limited.

[@gizzie3]

I agree with this comment. Please include the ability to use the Sonarworks correction profiles directly in the control Software or atleast explain why that's not possible. Custom curving the monitors is a tedious process. I'm not saying that the S-series dsp isn't a great feature, I just wish there would be an update for it to bring additonal Features.

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

Hi Frank! As you see we have brought out the A Series with an included Sonarworks integration at launch because it was a ground-up design that included this feature from the start of the project. For the S Series we have to retrofit this feature to an existing product and that has proved to be harder than expected when the cooperation was first announced. We cannot promise any timeline right now but please keep watching ADAM Audio for any possible future announcements.

Hello. I have studio monitors ADAM A7V and SSL2+ audio interface, when I turn up the volume to about a little less than half, the monitors start to light up golden even though they are at 0 db, although the power reserve is still huge, then I turn up the volume and they light up purple. Does this harm the monitors in any way and is it possible to listen with a gold or purple indicator?

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

Hi Bublik! Please visit this link for more clarification about the LED lights support.adam-audio.com/hc/en-gb/articles/8929035350930-LED-different-colours-for-div-purposes-Customizable-with-software-

[@bublik785]

@@ADAMAudioBerlin Thank you, I have read this information. please tell me, I don’t understand what ‘limiter’ means. If I turn up the volume and the gold and purple indicator lights up, will this damage the speakers?

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

A limiter in a studio monitor, or any audio device, is a signal processing tool designed to prevent the audio signal from exceeding a specified maximum level, known as the "threshold." Limiters are commonly used in audio systems to control and protect speakers, amplifiers, and other audio equipment from damage due to excessive signal levels. Using a long-term limiter or turning up the volume on your studio monitors should not inherently damage the speakers if the limiter is properly designed and configured. In fact, limiters are often used to protect speakers from damage due to excessive power or prolonged exposure to high levels. However, there are a few important considerations to keep in mind: -Distortion and Clipping: Be cautious about excessive distortion or clipping in the audio signal. While a limiter can protect against overexcursion and overheating of the voice coils, sustained high levels of distortion can still be harmful to the speakers over time. Listening Environment: Consider the size and acoustics of your listening environment. If you're pushing the volume to uncomfortable levels regularly, it may not only be harmful to the speakers but also lead to inaccurate monitoring due to room resonances and reflections. Monitoring Levels: Always monitor at reasonable and safe listening levels. Prolonged exposure to extremely high volumes can lead to hearing damage and fatigue, even if the speakers themselves are protected. Speaker Power Handling: Check the power handling specifications of your studio monitors. The limiter should prevent the amplifier from delivering more power to the speakers than they can safely handle. Exceeding a speaker's power handling capacity can cause damage, even with a limiter.

Thank god s- series atleast is made in Berlin unlike all the other series which are made in China ...

[@LaurentJadot]

It may be done in Berlin, but I have a lot of problems with mine.

[@telogic1]

I have the S2V by far the best near fields I have ever used

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

So happy you're enjoying the S2Vs!

[@LaurentJadot]

My S2A does not work anymore. They have been repaired once and they still aren’t working. On one of them, the tweeter or woofer disconnects for no reason. My dealer suggests to buy a new pair but I think it’s a shame to buy new ones.

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

Hi @LaurentJadot! We're genuinely sorry to hear about your experience. Please reach out to our Support Team via our official support form on this page: support.adam-audio.com/hc/en-gb/requests/new. We'll work swiftly to find a solution for you. Have a great day! Best, Jasper from ADAM Audio.

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

Have you listened to the S Series before?

[@ir8123]

No,I would like to.I have a pair of T8V and they are great.

[@yangli2999]

I am waiting for my shipping, but I really wish the production could be more efficient since I have been waiting for my S3H for two weeks after order was placed

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

@@yangli2999 Hello, we're sorry the shipping haas been delayed for you, but hoping you enjoy the S3Hs when they arrive. If you have any questions about them please feel free to contact us.

[@yangli2999]

@@ADAMAudioBerlin yes, they arrived at Thomas this Tuesday, are the new S3H only coming from factories in Berlin to European market?

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

Hi yang! Each monitor of the S-Series is handcrafted and packaged by hand in Berlin, which might cause delays depending on your location. We´re sorry for your inconvenience and hope that you enjoy your S-Series monitors. If you have any questions don´t hesitate to reach out to us!

[@dewaldomusic]

PMC 6-2 destroys the S3H, you can EQ them from your computer with no problems. Much wider vertical and horizontal soundstage and more low end. I waited for 3 years for Adam to update the S Series software and finally gave up.

[@ifelovemusic]

Same here. I won’t consider s3hs trash, but…..they are…….never mind. They’re trash. Mixes transformed before I even “learned” the PMCs. Adams are ok for rock but crappy on just about everything else.

Disappointed.. no rj45, need two pc to control two speakers

[@QuickNick1985]

You can use a powered USB hub.

Love my 2 way A3X with Sub 8 setup. I will be looking for a 3 way upgrade in near future with Adam Audio, which most likely will be the S-series.

[@ADAMAudioBerlin]

Thanks for watching and so happy you're loving your setup. If you have any questions about our S series feel free to reach out.
