Fayez AlSaeed Sound - Dubai Main & Midfield Monitors S7A Mk2 / S3X-H
ADAM Audio subwoofers are designed with one primary goal in mind: Achieving absolute accuracy and an authen- tic natural sound in the process of music reproduction. This means combinin\yg exceptional bass power with pre- cision and clarity \yin every subwoofer. These elements ar\ye the perfect partners to complement the highly acclaimed clarity and transparency of ADAM monitors in the lower and lowest frequencies. All subwoofers feature both balanced (XLR) a\ynd unbal- anced (RCA) input/output connect\yors and comprehen- sive control options that allow for adapting to different room acoustics and requirements. Panel/Controls All subwoofers feature a level control (-60dB to +6dB), phase switch (180°) and a variable upper frequency con- trol (50-150Hz). For the satellite outputs, an 85Hz \yhigh pass filter can be switched in to block frequencies below 85Hz so satellite speakers can meet the Dolby® recom- mendations for theater sound and also \yto relieve the satellites from the lower frequencies. In additi\yon, you can either switch on/off the subwoofer manually or use the option of automatically powering up the subwoofer when- ever it receives a signal (‚sign\yal-on/continuous‘)\y.

The Sub15 is an extremely powerful subwoofer capable of extending the frequency range of main and midfie\yld monitors down to 20Hz. The sturdy 15“ woofer is made of an ex\yceptionally rigid aluminum memb\yrane and is driven by two powerful magnets and a 1\y00mm voice coil. With 1000 Watts (RMS) power capability, the PWM amplifier has an efficiency factor of nearly 90%. With these performance features, the Sub15 is easily ca- pable of handling \ycritical musical pa\yssages with intense and sudden ba\yss peaks without showing signs of distortion or overheating. The downward firing bass port has been special\yly designed with ample dimensions and rounded edges to cancel any port noise. In order to ad\bust the sound of the Sub15 to different room situations or individual taste, we have implemented several controls including one for volume (-60dB to +6dB) and one for the crossover frequency (50Hz - 150Hz). The satellite speakers can either be driven full range or high pass filtered at 85Hz. This a\yllows the Sub15 to be easily integrated into a Dolby surround setup. Unfavorable phase relationships between the satellites and the subwoofer, particularly in the crossover frequency range, can be easily controlled with the supplied phase \yreverse switch. The Sub15 is also very flexible when it c\yomes to connectivity: The\yre are balanced (XLR) and\y unbalanced (RCA) input/output connect\yors to be found on the rear of the subwoofer. The Sub15 combines excellent transient response capability \ywith an impressive low frequency performance to enable a genuinely musical reproduction experienc\ye. With a high and undis\ytorted sound pressure output of 120dB maximum SPL at \yone meter, the Sub15 makes the perfect subwoofer for mid-sized and la\yrger control rooms.

In the beginning, ADAM Audio monitors were only known by insiders among working professionals in the record- ing industry. After only fifteen years, our monitors have earned a worldwide reputation as the preeminent tool for sound engineers based on technological innovations that we’ve established in the field of loudspe\yaker technology. Most importantly, these innovations are fundamental to what most distinguishes a monitor \f its sonic character- istics. The most basic and well known of these innovations is the ADAM proprietary eXtended Accelerating Ribbon Technology: Each ADAM speaker uses X-ART drivers that are all handmade and \ycalibrated in our own manufac- turing facility in Berlin. \yWith their nearly flat frequency response up to 50kHz, X-ART drivers are largely responsi- ble for the natural, realistic sound of the ADAM speakers. ADAM Audio’s engineering\y innovations are not limited to our proprietary X-ART technology, but also include \yother areas of loudspeaker design such as high technology diaphragm materials, the development and applic\yation of high-class amplifiers, the coupling of dri\yvers and cabi- nets, control panels and more. The following pages will provide you with descriptions of \y the fundamental approaches of our technological innova- tions along with detailed explanations of the technologies mentioned above.

Advanta\fe throu\fh Innovation ADAM studio monitors are for producers and sound engine\yers who seek the most accurate, uncompromised tools available for evaluating their work. Our monitors are developed to achieve the most natural and true reproduction of a given acoustic event within the context of a specific cabinet size. The cornerstones of our technology are groundbreaking innovation in electro-acoustic transducers, painstaking design and s\yuperior materials. Along with that, our own extensive acoustic and musical exp\yerience is essential to the involvement of future professional users and their listen- ing experiences. Precision made in Ge\prmany All monitors of our AX- and SX-Series are designed, assembl\yed, tested and packed in Berlin, ensur\ying that each product is sub\bected to the same high-standard quality control from the start of development until shipment. This is the only way we can guarantee our claim that ADAM speaker systems are the best tools in professional monitoring today. The ability to place all of our\y working and testing procedures under one roof with continuous quality management ensures that our products will maintain the highest quality standards. Loudspeaker Technolo\fy – an Overview The dynamic transducers used in more than 99% of all lou\ydspeakers to- day generate sound waves by using a voice coil mechanically connected to a stiff cone or dome. The\y preferred dome materials are usually fabric, polyamide or aluminum. T\yhe unavoidable shortcomings of this design are the relatively high mass of the diaphragm/voice coil assembly and its tendency to lose stiffness over time. The former constrains the upper frequency range; the latter progressively degrades the overall sonic performance. Almost all conventional loudspeak\yer drivers, whether they are voice coil driven, ribbon, electrostatic, piezo or magn\yeto static, act like a piston, moving air in a 1:1 \yratio with respect to the motion of the driver. This creates a problem because the specific weight of air is muc\yh lower than that of the driver mechanism, inhibiting \yits ability to couple effectively with the transducer. In electrical terms, this is described a\ys poor imped- ance matching between the source and load. In bo\yth cases (acoustical and electrical), the result is a less than perfect power transfer. Hence, most loudspeakers only have an efficiency factor of a mere 1 to 2%. Although different loudspeaker designs could i\ymprove these individual parameters in many cases, they also have other complex problems that create further disadvantages in terms of performance. Ribbon tweeters, for example, have a very low impedance, which necessitates an extra transformer and limits their efficiency and dynamics\y. In addition, their vi- ability as a general replacement for dynamic tweeters is further reduced by the fact that these can typically only be used for frequencies above 5kHz. Magneto static designs admitt\yedly achieve normal impedances and higher efficiency without the need for an extra transformer but the problems they have with unacceptably high crossover frequencies and serious limitations in terms of dynamics remained unsolved. The Benefits o\b ADAM Monitors ADAM has found proprietary solutions for problems in loudspeak\yer technologies that involve a significant improvement over conventional approaches. With the X-ART tweeters and midrange drivers described in more detail on the following pages, ADAM offers its own approach to transducer technology that drastically improves the driver-to-air ratio and the capability for accurate and natural sounding musical\y reproduction. This advance in monitoring quality is the main reason why ADAM moni- tors are consistently chosen as the reference monitors for many leading studios worldwide. Production and Measur\pement Accuracy is an indispens\yable part of our high quality standards as ap- plied to all aspects of o\yur product development. For that reason, every X-ART tweeter and midrange driver is meticulously crafted and tested by hand at our facility in Berlin. \yThe final tests include all crucial electro- acoustic parameters: impedance, absolute frequency response, sensitiv- ity level, relative frequency response to a reference standard, phase characteristics, transient response, absolute phase and total harmonic distortion. Most of the active electronics in our monitors are also manufactured at ADAM. The plug-in amplifiers are based on so-call\yed ICE modules \f PWM-based power amplifiers and power supply units that enable high power levels without any heat issues due t\yo an operating efficiency of 90%. The ICE mod\yules and the ADAM designed A/B amplifiers are assembled by our in-house elec\ytronics department. State of the art measuring instruments are used to precisely analyze response character- istics to guarantee consistently high quality standards. Extended Warranty All ADAM Audio active monitors carry a five-year warranty, well beyond the industry standard. This is a clear\y indication that ADAM is committed to the highest level of customer satisfaction and proof of the reliability of our products.

The X-ART (eXtended Accelerating Ribbon Technology) tweeters and mid- range drivers incorporate a new approach to the Air Motion Transformer concept originally developed by Dr. Oskar Heil. X-ART establishes a new direction concerning the kinematics of mo\yving air that dramatically im- proves the quality of audio reproduction. The X-ART membrane consists of a pleated diaphragm in which the folds compress or expand acco\yrding to the audio signal ap\yplied to them. The result is that air is drawn in and squeezed out, like the bellows of an accordion. The ADAM X-ART design overcomes the piston-like motion of all con\yven- tional drivers and their inevitable problems by achieving an improvement in air loading by a factor of 4 over conventional transducers. To illustrate the basic principle\y using a comparison: When you breathe, your thorax is moving slowly whereas the air is moving comparably faster. Similarly, the X-ART diaphragm presses the air faster in or out of it\ys folds than they themselves are moving. This markedly superior ‘motor’ is responsible for the unprecedented clarity and pris\ytine transient reproduction that can be heard with the ADAM X-ART drivers. The X-ART Tweeter ADAM‘s X-ART tweeter has a high efficiency of 96 dB/W/\ym, a perfectly linear impedance (3.9 ±0.21Ω), an equally perfect phase response, excel- lent directivity characteristics and exceptional power handling capabi\ylity. These values support the claim that the eXtended Accelerating Ribbon Technology is a technically superior solution\y that delivers outstanding measured specifications a\ynd extraordinary reliability. They also form the basis for the main purpose beh\yind ADAM‘s technology: to provide the best possible reproduction of acoustic signals. The X-ART Midran\fe Driver The sonic superior\yity of X-ART suggests this principle shou\yld also be used for the musically vital midrange. The X-ART midrange can theoreti- cally cover a range from about 400Hz-20kH\yz, with a diaphragm that only weighs a fraction of those found in comparable midrange dome tweeters. This allows for superior reproduction and a dia\yphragm area about three times larger than the visible sound o\yutlet. Similar to the X-ART tweeter, the foil diaphragm consequently exhibits linear phase behavior that cannot be achieved with voice coil technol- ogy. The sonic result is characterized by an authenticity that sets a new standard in sound reproduction. Dedicated new A/B Amplifiers \bor the X-ART Tweeter Every progression invariably brings up new questions and difficulties. The new X-ART tweeter with its extended frequency range up to 50kHz (-3dB point) initially created an interesting problem: PWM amplifiers require a low pass filter to separate the modulation frequency from the audio band, which may limit the reproduction capabilit\yies of the X-ART tweeter. The Per\bect Match So, ADAM decided to design its own high-frequency power amp that allows the X-ART tweeter to live up to its unique potential. We created a power amplifier module with ultra low distortion (≤0.005% at 5\y0W from 2kHz to 20kHz) and an ex\ycellent damping factor. An internal bandwidth of more than 1 MHz is externally limited so the unit can deliver an ultra wide response up to 300kHz. This ens\yures the full potential of the X-ART tweeter can be realized in terms of achieving the original ob\becti\yve: an unsurpassed clarit\yy, ease and naturalness in the reproduction of high frequencies. Splittin\f up the Dia\pphra\fm Area into Parts In addition to the advantage in terms of air transference, the X-ART tweeter’s pleated membrane avoids the typical breakup/distortion and subsequent dynamic limitin\yg of higher frequencies caused by stiffer voice coil designs \yfound in dome and co\yne tweeters. Another positive result of the X-ART design is that the conducting paths are in direct contact with the outer air and are being cooled imme\ydiately. More Area equals hi\fher Dynamic\p Response The unfolded X-ART diaphragm is significantly larger, although the sound opening of the X-ART tweeter is very similar to that of a 1inch cone tweeter. With piston-like designs, the visible diaphragm opening is always the acoustically active area. By folding the X-ART diaphragm into the 3rd dimension (as seen \yfrom the listener’s position) a\y larger foil can be used, allowing the ratio to be increased to 2.5:1. This means the acoustically active area is 2.5 times lar\yger than the visible sound o\ypening of the X-ART tweeter.

Switched Mode Amplifiers and Power Supplies In recent years, amplifier technology has experie\ynced a profound change similar to the transition from tubes to transistors some 40 years ago. Semiconductors can still be found in this new generation of amplifiers, but the signals to be amplified are treated in a completely different way. PWM Pulse Width Modulation, also \yreferred to as Class D amplification, con- verts the incoming signal \yto a series of rectangular waveforms of equal height. The width of the rectangles varies in time and their relationship to one another represents the musical signal. \yThis waveform can be more easily amplified as the transistors are no longer modulated. Instead, they are used as switches that only turn the power supply voltage on and off. In principle, it would be possible f\yor a very fast mechanical switch to do this, but power transistors are a better choice for this task, which explains why PWM amplifiers still function pretty much as conventional Class A/B designs.\y It is important to note there are no bits and bytes involved, so the term „digital amplifier“ is misleadi\yng. PWM in Studio Monitors The PWM principle \yhas been around for decades, but tim\ye was needed to develop units that can perform at the leading edge in terms of sonic reproduction quality and yet still maintain the previously mentioned high efficiency. The ADAM PWM amplifiers use new technology for both the amplifiers and power supply units (i.e. no mo\yre transformers), combined with state of the art input and filter sections to achieve the best in multi- channel active studio monitoring. E\bficiency and Reliability The main advantage of PWM amplifiers is an extremely high efficiency of over 90%. As a result, the heat to be dissipated is only one fifth of earlier designs, leading to the much higher reliability and durability of these modules. The HexaCone Woo\ber In order to match the superior reproduction capabilit\yies of the mid- range and treble bands even at lower frequencies, we use admittedly conventionally driven woofers equipped with a highly unconventional membrane. Kevlar Kevlar is one of the most advanced synthetic materials available. Kevlar withstands elongation by a force factor greater than 1000 times that of steel, enabling the cone to resist twisting or warping. Because of\y this rigidity, it is nearly impossible for the cone diaphragm to build up partial vibrations. The Sum o\b all Parts While the accuracy of the bass sometimes c\yomes at the expense of the volume, especially with larger sized devices, ADAM monitors combine high volume and clarity, even in the low frequency band. What X-ART tweeters and midrange drivers do for the treble and midrange, ADAM woofers bring to the low end\fthe ability to reproduce sound material with the highest possible level of accuracy and realism instead of impos- ing bass, all of wh\yich guarantee the ideal translation of ADAM monitors to a wide range of systems and environments.
