This is such a great review! Love the plain English, no nonsense description of the sound. No fancy reviewer talk, but real world gut level explanations we all relate to. From this, I have a real idea these are the speakers I want. Great job.
I've had my A7X's for a few weeks now and I love them. I used KRK Rokit 8's for 12 years and the Adams sound really tight. They are not blurry in the low mid range and those highs sound really clean & clear. I just watched your unboxing and I was lol'ing. You seem like a good dude man. Great review.
@@cameobelafonte4975 That's great! Enjoy! Some advice: keep the KRK's as a reference if you can. I had a bit of a slow adjustment period with the ADAM's. Now I use both sets of speakers and can switch between them at any time, which is handy.
I’m here cause I used these once with the sub at another studio and the car test and I was amazed at how clean it was in every way. And I might just cop
I have been using the Adam ax7s for about 3 years now! While I love them now in the beginning I felt like the ax7s was trying to be bigger than the 7 woofer could replicate properly. Then I added a 10 inch subs 1 for each. Boom incredible!!
Been using rokit 5 for many years, but when I could finally afford Adams, I bought them straight away. What a difference. I mean Rokits are great but are nowhere near Adams. My best speakers I've ever owned.
Dope review! I have the Yammies HS8, JBL305, Avatones Mix Cube, and I just went and copped these! One of the best investments I've made fo sho!!! KEEP UP THE GREAT REVIEWS BRUH
Hey Wayne, How is the monitors connected balanced or not and are the cables of good quality Mogami or canare ?.. I'm a audiophile that only use monitors for listening to jazz , I am considering the A5X .. I just love great sounding speakers.. whats your thoughts?
HS8s are back ported, so they might not work as well as the front-ported Adams when close to a wall. Personally I do slightly prefer the HS8's low-end over the (much more expensive) A8X though, which I feel are a bit too bottom-heavy. But in your situation, the HS8s might not be the best choice. Consider the A7X too! They pack a serious punch down to ~40Hz and overall I actually prefer them over the A8X. If you feel they lack something in the bottom octave (which they do a bit), consider adding a sub in due time. You might even consider A5X+sub; those almost 'forgotten' A5Xs sound surprisingly good and might save you some cash if you're going to add a sub anyway. In any case, try to audition any speaker before buying anything; you might simply not like the sound of the Adams.
@@waynewav last question for someone who has a home studio and has been doing this for well over 4 years but just started to become an intermediate professional do u think i should buy these or should i invest on other stuff since i have the krk6
@@dulla8469 invest in getting better at your craft. buying expensive gear won't magically make you a better mixer/creator. Find some monitors that you like and trust and stick to them.
hifive, i just got the A77X 3way they bangin, bet. thx for your video it helped me deside, i just went one step up as i got a good deal. i do tho have my volume control on the a77x 5% over 12 o´clock whits give my low end more precence in my room
having the a7x would you have wished you went with the a8x; becasuse I am trying to decide whether to get the a7x or the a8x; I do like alot of mid range in my speakers(he 3D sound effect, alot of presence; so if you tried both out before you could help me out if I should go with the a7x or the a8x; as far as bass I like a thump in my music but like only when its needed like kick drums or stuff like that and it kind of echos but it dosent I am not sure if you know what I am talking about but if you can help me out on this would be great
It all depends on the size of the room and how much is the clearance of your listening position. Also depending on the room treatment ... What videos all of these and make decision, Cheers
I ended up getting the Neumanns kh120s , I do love them . But was very tempting to get the adams . I might still get them . But I think if I get another pair of monitors it might confuse me as to which pair I finalise a mix with , as there’s subtle differences between the pair . Do you find confusion in having many pairs of monitors?
@@MattDxstined actually I just went ahead and got some Adams cause the price was right and these things are incredible! Thanks for the video and reply!
Do you thin the KEF LSX can be used for beginner mixing , thanks (im thinking of getting em for my pc setup anyweays) alsow could i mix whit my Beayerdynamics 990 Pro headphones whit a good 100-200 headamp (insted until i need fysical speakers)??

Hi this is an extremely helpful review. Its convinced me to go for the Adam but now to decide is it A7x or A5X..Mine is a home studio . There's a limit to the noise i can make but I plan to release music commercially..is the A7x too loud for a house?.. Have you reviewed the A5X..that should help me decide between the 2.

Bro I really trust you. I have HS8 and the mixes are nice with them, But I'm not a full time engineer and I need something that will inspire me to wanna mix more and more! I've learn a ton from you, Thanks and God bless! Uncle Rob, Smithtone records
How did you like the a7x’s over the HS8’s? Im between the two right now and am leaning towards the a7x’s. I make mostly hip hop & rap music. I’d like to eventually get a77x’s...
Yo! I have the Adam a8x. I love mine! My question is how do they sound going back from the hs8 or 5s? I was thinking about some focal alphas as a second pair of monitors?
Hello man!I sold the T5V I had bought and kept the T10S and tonight Finaly buy A7X :DDDD Οver how much volume does the Sub start to get lost? because I have heard that they have 10db different. Have you lowered the Low shelf behind the speakers? Combo is worth??
just ordered these the other day , upgrading from my T7Vs. very hyped.

Great video bro! I definitely wanna add these monitors to my studio soon.
I’m just like you... I started with the KRK5’s in 2007. I’m just now upgrading. I’m definitely going with these A7X’s!! Thanks for the review!
9:12 that right there is the biggest facts I’ve ever heard
Its weird that most budget monitors are rear ported yet most budget studios are too small for them.
Great review thank getting the Adam today
Been using rokit 5 for many years, but when I could finally afford Adams, I bought them straight away. What a difference. I mean Rokits are great but are nowhere near Adams. My best speakers I've ever owned.
Please suggest me Which is better Adam t7v vs Yamaha HS8... as I can't afford A7x...??
I'm worried abt ear fatigue from hs8...

Thanks Fam!
@@waynewav no doubt bro
What do you recommend for hip hop out of ADAM A7X and Yamaha HS8?
Wavy what would you say is the best pair for a beginning producer/engineer?
whats the technical differences between these and the rokits or the hs7 or hs8
All the monitors have different frequency responses.

Wayne.wav Which pair of these, are better to DJ mixin and produce ? (Techno music). I think about Adam Audio A7X/Yamaha HS8 and Rokit RPK 8 G4 :)
Thanks for the review!
I wonder, do you use the pair-link feature on these speakers?
Who beats was that in the intro 🤔
@noiseyneighborz look them up on IG
Wayne.wav thanks💯
Overall: if you had to choose one monitor for the rest of your life, would you choose the A7X or the HS8?
A7X!!!
i think the a7x's are too bright, if you ahve to spend more than 2-3 hrs infront of them a day
Did you end up deciding between the two? Im having that dilemma now, i mostly make hip hop & rap music so i’d like to pick the best option!

quick question... Are you using a sub frequency monitor at the same time???
He said in the video it's better to turn off the sub to prevent ear fatigue so that would be a no
PreSonus speakers aren’t bad for $100 I plan to upgrade in the future tho cuz I want something louder.
Can you really hear a difference between these $1700 dollar speakers and one that cost 1/2 that price?
nah bro. Just use what you have. More expensive does not mean better.
Which interface is that bro
Great review thank you!!!
Will the a5x's cut it?
Do you have a video? Mixing on two track
Check out the other videos I’m sure you will find something helpful

Different monitors do have their characteristics, mix until it sounds great on both.
You mentioned the Yamaha hs in this video, I'm curious, would you prefer the Atom over those in higher end mixes (say in like rock music)?
@@MattDxstined actually I just went ahead and got some Adams cause the price was right and these things are incredible! Thanks for the video and reply!
@@MattDxstined but I be hearing the opposite
adam a7x vs focal alpha 65 somebody used both? of them i want to buy one of them
@voiceofreason237 4u same...
did you find your final pick ?
Not sure if you'll respond since this vid is almost a year old but how do these compare to the EVE SC207s? Trying to decide between the Adams and Eves
Get the 207’s for better translation.

another question u have 3 sets of monitors do u use all of them together or do u switch between them to hear how the mix sounds on each one
Switch between. I only use one set at a time.

Go for the A7x! You won’t be disappointed. Screw the neighbors. Lol. You don’t need to have them too loud tho.
Hey thx for that, Youre right 👍
the yamaha HS8 is much clearer than the Adam A7X ... I have both pairs but I feel that you hear all the tracks clearly ...!

focal solo 6 Be 6.5 is better then Adams, its a step or 2 above, dont get me wrong Adams is dope but not as good
Them Adams dope big dawg! But you need to try the PreSonus spectrum 8 another level brother!!!

You wanna sell or DONATE those rokit 5s to a new, aspiring producer? Dope review to tho
Thanks fam. I can’t part with my first set of monitors.

You helped me make up my mind on my upgrade :) If anyone wanna who went with these wanna collab on something hmu 😂

I dont buy 2 way shit
First
bumping this to say I am running the A7Xes with the new T10S sub. 🔥 combo.
Hello man!I sold the T5V I had bought and kept the T10S
and tonight Finaly buy A7X :DDDD
Οver how much volume does the Sub start to get lost? because I have heard that they have 10db different.
Have you lowered the Low shelf behind the speakers? Combo is worth??
Would a scarlet 4i4 gen 3 be enough to run a pair of adam a7x?
