A8X (Individual Price)
The Most Powerful AX Monitor
With its power and radiation characteristics, the brand new A8X is suitable
for both nearfield and midfield monitoring. With a price/performance ratio that
could hardly be better, this monitor is a perfect entry into these monitoring
fields.
The A8X is equipped with the X-ART tweeter and a large (8.5") midwoofer, a
combination that adds both a very deep and yet very tight bass response to the
unsurpassed reproduction qualities of the ADAM proprietary tweeter: a licence to
thrill.
Cabinet- and Bass Reflex-Construction
Like the other AX-Series models, the upper corners of the A8X are slanted to
minimize reflections. The very large, double bass reflex tubes on the front have
been specifically designed to perfectly match the midwoofer with its large voice
coil.
Amplification and Controls
With a 50W A/B amplifier for the tweeter and a 150W PWM amplifier for the
midwoofer, the A8X has power in abundance and is the brawny monitor of the
AX-Series.
On the rear panel are several controls: a gain for the high frequencies (±
4dB) and two shelf filters for the high and low frequencies. There are both XLR
(balanced) and RCA (unbalanced) connectors on the rear panel of the speaker,
which allow the A8X to be used in almost any application.
Review: A8X: a "powerful link" between near- and midfield monitors!
"The A8X is a powerful link between ADAM´s AX Series and the formidable and
more expensive SX Series. Its all-in-all homogenous tuning, the deep and precise
bass as well as the brilliant mid- and high-frequency reproduction make this
speaker a huge recommendation for ambitious people without deep pockets."
