ADAM Audio was founded in March 1999 in Berlin. Since then the company has been developing, manufacturing and distributing loudspeakers in the field of Professional Audio.
The development of the X-ART (eXtended Accelerating Ribbon Technology) tweeter based on the 1960’s invention of the Air Motion Transformer by Oskar Heil was largely responsible for the company’s founding. Producing sound not with a piston-like diaphragm as is done in most of the loudspeakers that are on the market, but using a pleated diaphragm that is capable of moving the air 4 times faster than the folds themselves are moving was the appealing idea behind it all. The achieved results were intriguing and gave ample reason for moving forward.

I love how you can really hear the difference between untreated (0:18) and treated (6:52)
Hi @dicnxhxj! Thanks for tuning in! :)
I'm an acoustics consultant in the UK. Regarding windows. It's common for windows to feature trickle ventilators where your room may rely on openable windows to deal with overheating. So slapping a panel over the window where you may have trickle vents or windows designed to be openable to deal with overheating, then you'll be doing things very wrong. The best way is certainly to us a thick curtain that provides MASS and thus forms an impedance mismatch between the materials and incident sound waves.
Great video! I have a really little room converted into a music studio and will be nice to have some advice on acoustic treatment 🙏🙏
Awesome video! Are the larger tower speakers on the sides older Adam "home theater" speakers? I'm assuming these are no longer being produced, correct? If I was to build a home theater, I always envisioned the Adam S line being great for LCR and surrounds! I'd imagine something like the S3V / S3H would have plenty of headroom and easily be comparable to expensive passive home theater speakers
Sehr cool :)
Thank you for watching!
Nice tutorial,
Thank you for tuning in!
Have you turned a bedroom into a studio? If so, what gear have you added to the space? Let us know!
Yes I did. Although it’s still under construction. I did measurements last week with a good hardware SPL meter. Inside and outside. Although I have plenty space, 8 meters long, 4 meters wide, 2.5 meters height, there are many issues. On the side, there’s a window. On the front there’s a window. In the back there’s a window. That’s a difficult challenge but I’m sure that if I continue measuring the other details like the reverb time inside the room on different frequencies I get a lot more insight. Still it won’t be perfect. At the moment the isolation and treatment is little and doesn’t the job correctly. I really need an expert out here, free or paid that’s no problem, who can help me out with this one. I will provide all the necessary important details and measurements of the room and a blueprint to the person that can via internet email, so someone and me can together decide what’s important. I know that the bass build up in the corners is extremely high. I want to get the best sound my monitors can output in my room. Equipment? MacBook Air new model, FL, Steinberg audio interface, tisino interconnect balanced shielded nylon 6.3 trs jack to balanced xlr made for audio signals, ADAM AUDIO T7V pro studio monitors (wow!!), Soundcraft analog mixing console with hardware Lexicon effects (12 ch IO, EQ high mid low, trim, aux send double headphone monitoring, usb, 48v phantom power, xlr main master output etc), brennensthul outlets with 8 sockets in built power surge Lightning protection, angled input, safety button, grounded to earth, aluminium heavy expensive, brennensthul outlets with 4 sockets, protection and two usb a outputs, cable management system, lots of cables!!!, Konig and Meyer mic stand, Samson C Pro Studio hybrid condenser mic with gold diaphragm, 10 meters high end xlr mic cable, midi in out on three different hardware, two budget keyboards Casio and Medeli only €599 each for midi, small 25 key for quick takes, Cubase 10, Logic Pro with Dolby Atmos rendering, mixing and printing, too many plug-ins, hardware digital drums Yamaha DD55 vintage mint condition midi in out 5 din, two monitor stands for ADAM AUDIO T7V with spikes to isolate from floor, two comfortable chairs, two keyboard stands, acoustic guitar nylon budget, more power outlets with switches, MacBook stand, led strip 5 meters around studio desk must shield 16 m colors, three Philips wifi bulbs 💡 led for amazing lighting effects to suit my mood and a lot more. I stop for now otherwise my comment will be to long. Im sorry for that.
@@emiel333 Hi Emiel, this sounds like an awesome setup! Sounds like everything you need to get creative. If you have particular questions about your room's specific acoustics, feel free to talk with someone at Music City Acoustics or fill out their form and I'm sure they'd be happy to talk through some of the potential issues that might arise in that space.
Nice transformation. I don’t have a “room”.. but a tiny (1x2m) corner in our hallway/kitchen 😁
I'm starting my studio, I have an arturia interface and my ableton push 2 but I don't have monitors and I want to add the new a44h to my studio!!
Mine ..Buying some A7X i have a lot of gear Ableton Push 2 .Komplete Kontrol S49..Focusrite Isa One ..Novation Audiohub 2X4..That’s my Main Setup
would be cool to see some measurements like sonarworks or smth in the end)
We'll be creating another video focused on this in the near future!
What’s the idea behind using the Focusrite into the Apollo, when you could just use the focusrite?
Hi Austin, good question. Running the Focusrite 18i20 ADAT into the Apollo Twin allows you to utilize 8 more channels within UA's control software. This in turn gives the ability of using their unison plugins on anything running through the Focusrite's mic pre inputs or line-inputs. This is also a personal preference for the monitor controller used in this studio. I hope this helps, and thanks for watching!
What desk is that ?
💞💓
I live in an appartment with hardwood floor and have neighbors above, under and next to me. My main concern is I want to watch movies and play music while disturbing them as little as possible. Any tips on diffusion, absorption or anything els that would let me use my sub without needing to worry too much? Cheers
Hi Johannes! It is necessary to differentiate the acoustical room treatment with acoustic panels and diffusers (that will give you a proper and good sound in the room) with soundproofing (that will prevent the outside sound from coming into your room and vice-versa). If you treat your room with panels and diffusers you will have a healthy sound in the room, but this will go out of it, as your room won't be soundproofed.
The monitors will give proper listening levels that close to a wall?
Hi Albert, as mentioned in the video, this always depends on your room size and you can experiment with the listening position until you find a proper placement. You can watch more of our videos on the topic of speaker placement in the links below:

What kind of desk is that
For my future smaller bedroom studio, would the a4v with a separate sub be better than a7v?
Hi Freddie, for a smaller setup than this, we would suggest the A4Vs and a sub. You will get all the low end you will need that way without taking up valuable space in your studio, especially if you plan to have the monitors on a desk like in this video. Thanks for watching!
What about room 12 feet wide 25 feet long
he doesnt stop nodding lol
Step 1: Buy a house with an extra room, because why not?
Why not? Because most people aren’t wealthy? Have you seen the prices of homes? 😂
@@dougleydorite that was the point of my post. My setup is in the corner of my living room
@@himdownstairsmusik I’m fortunate to have a dedicated room, but I’m old, so there’s that
What type of desk is that? Table Desk
Hi Rajinder! just look for studio desks and you will find a variety of different models comparable to the one in the video :)
Wrong model speaker listed.
I started with just a few panels and a similar setup. It was a disaster. Dead room in the high end and everything else was boomy. It would have been better if I never did anything. Too many Broadband absorbers everywhere and carpet will make things worse imo. Unless you’re treating like 3 feet everywhere to have equal reverb times
Hi Dougley, thanks for watching and sorry your experience with your bedroom setup was so poor! Have you adjusted your room to address these issues?
@@ADAMAudioBerlin I have! I replaced the carpet with hard floor and I kept all my broadband absorbers on first reflections only. Everything else all over the room has scatter plates in front of the the traps. Much better translation, but very costly.
Next step will be Trinnov, but it’s not cheap.
But... where would I sleep, if I turn my bedroom into a studio? 😂
Who needs sleep when you have a studio... 😁
Modern Family
i would change the apple logo to something other .. aslong apple dont sue you.
They should definitely say something about the type of bedroom etc because not everywhere is America. Wouldn’t hurt to speak to actual bedroom producers too. This was quite unhelpful actually. SweetWater have done a better job…
Hi Jordan, we're sorry you found this video unhelpful. What exactly do you mean by "type of bedroom?" This room for instance was a very typical bedroom, and we hope that it was applicable to many bedroom producers. If you can expand on what you mean, we'll be sure to create more content tailored to that 👍
@@ADAMAudioBerlin smaller and more obscure shaped bedrooms are more common in the inner cities in the U.K. the one in the example was mid size (American I think). Also thinking about those who live with partners… many videos you guys as big companies create don’t have practical examples for us working class who watch them.
Hi Jordan! Thanks for the feedback! We will have your comment in mind for our next videos ;)
