    Great video buddy. I own the Adam Audio T7V and I couldn’t be happier. I don’t get any hiss on these studio monitors. Hissing can occur when it’s connected to a faulty, broken cable and also by interference on the speaker cable when they’re laying next to electric wall outlets and cables. Try some fresh new cables with good isolation shielding and make sure there isn’t a couple power cables laying next to them.

I like them and the bass they put out for my bedroom home recording studio but after about 2hrs. of song mixing I noticed that I was having ear fatigue. I spend a lot of time mixing music and working on video projects and sound design.

I was at guitar center (for three hours) switching back and forth between the HS7's and the T7V's trying out different Genres of music and came to the same conclusion. Hs7 was able to reproduce very steady low end but suffered ear piercing high's (noticed serious ear fatigue at the store??) and the Adam had great high/mid but no bottom??? spent the last few days trying to learn all I can to make an educated purchase... any info would be very helpful 🙏

    Nice review, appreciate the detaill and the explanation of the biases in the testing. I bought a pair of Behringher Truth 12 years ago (not amazing but solid) for mixing and inadvertently became addicted to a more honest sound. Have bought JBLs and KRKs since with varying results (dirty secret I still like the Behringhers) but I will inevitably replace every speaker in my house with a monitor.

    I have these monitors since yesterday. And i can say the'yre absolutely amazing, especially since they're not very expensive. I am by no means a proffesional, i just produce music as hobby. But after having worked with krk rokit 6''s for a decade and switching to these... Man the clarity on these T7V's are so much better. It's almost like i removed ear plugs when hearing the comparison. I think i understand better now what a neutral sound means. I can hear allot more details in songs, i'm sure those ribbon tweeters have much to do with it. The bass is thight and more than enough for me to produce. I might look into a sub later though. They also match very well with Sennheiser HD600's, which will save me time trying to get the mix right on both. Can highly recommend them !

  • @Pharesm
    @Pharesm 5 років тому +1

    The T7V hiss has been mentioned elsewhere and its a deal breaker for me. Beyond that, the first gen KRK V4 monitors made me a fan of small speaker membranes around 4 inches. They are so much more detailed due to speed and high rigidity. For some material, I use a Genelec 7040 to shore up the bass, in an equally crisp fashion.
    And the AKG 712 are my favorite headphones ever - looking forward to your review on those.
    Currently, I'm trying hard to decide between Genelec 8010 (bi-amped version), 8020 and Adam A3X for a secondary location, since I don't want to move my KRK V4's

  • @muldune
    @muldune 5 років тому +2

    Recently purchased two Adam Audio T5Vs and I do hear some noise when they are attached to an powered source whose volume is 0. When the source is powered off, the T5Vs are absolutely silent even though the T5Vs are still powered on and their volume is unchanged. This eliminates RF, the monitor's own amplifier, the cable, and magnetic interference as the source of the noise. I have not yet resolved the issue. I will receive a Schiit Modi 3 DAC in a few days. I'll feed it S/pdif signals and connect the T5Vs via RCA. I'm hoping the Modi 3's low noise levels will help resolve the issue. Nevertheless, I am quite satisfied with the T5Vs. It is a joy to listen to their clear clean sound.

Previously, I could hear the idle noise 5 feet away, now if I put my ear 5 inches away from the woofer I hear slight noise. In my usual listening position, the speakers are silent at idle. The DAC was worth the $100. You may consider it for the hiss you are hearing on the T7Vs. Enjoy.

      Well, that's a "problem" you will have with all studio monitors, but usually, if it sounds good on monitors it also should sound okay on cheap devices. You always have to get to know your monitors really well and after you have done a mix, listen to it on as many other devices as possible.

    They hiss is because they’re using Class D amp, instead of Class A/B but the hiss shouldn’t be an issue if you keep the speakers a 50cm or more away from your ears, and hiss usually disappears once music starts playing. I think for the price range, its the best Buy, I think next level up is probably 3-way monitors.

So, i noticed that yamaha is more colorful sound in all tones but but but it loses sharpness in low end. I listened adams then i realized that it is clearer and linear than hs7. Hs7 failed for me in basses sharpness of sound is lost difficult to understand the guy says what inside the playing sound. Adam was far more natural but something like less bass sound. My choice was adam at the end. I didnt know that it differs so much in sound. Although i set my mind to go and buy hs, i saw by my eyes adam is better than the other one for me.

      the T7Vs have a more balanced sub and mids but lack that sizzle and sharpness in the high end. Every review you see will tell you they are smooth and do not cause ear fatigue bc the high end is smooth but this is in my opinion a problem in EDM.

      Hi Kalle, I wouldn't really put it like that. I had no intention of buying the T7V, but I wanted to hear them. Adam sent me a pair to review.
      I wouldn't buy the T7V and keep them in my studio to replace the HS7, I'm actually thinking of something like the HEDD Type 20 or Type 30 for my studio. They're a brilliant speaker and a solid upgrade for me.

    I have absolutely NO... as in 0 hiss... I mean I spent 10 minutes checking my power conditioner and cables because I thought the speakers where off... and the led indicator is on the back... Then after I saw the light on... I thought they were dead until I remembered a review I had watched where the reviewer talked about how silent they were when they weren't playing anything... so I hit spacebar, and.... bruh... bliss.

      It sounds like you have no idea, there is no way you can tell how these speakers sound if I played the speakers and recorded it. There are so many factors that would disturb and colour the sound.

      @@starpaolo it wouldn't give anyone an idea. I would record the sound of the speakers... the first problem is that my microphone would colour the sound with it's character. The second problem is my room acoustics that would colour the sound. The third problem is the UA-cam compression on the audio. The fourth problem is the speakers you use to listen on would colour the sound and then finally your room would too... so all in all it wouldn't sound anything like being with the speakers in your house.
