Adam T8V 8'' Active Powered Nearfield Studio Recording Monitor Speaker (Single)

Description

The single ADAM Audio T8V is an active 8" studio monitor offering high output and extended lows within reach, making it ideal for near-to-midfield use in project studios, commercial recording facilities, and broadcast environments where subwoofers aren't feasible. Designed around the same technology, features and build quality as its smaller siblings, the T8V provides best-in-class characteristics and sound performance.

The T8V impresses with a multitude of features that bring real benefits to the user: The U-ART tweeter’s 4:1 velocity transfer ratio, in combination with the new Class D amplifiers’ high dynamic range, yield respective max. peak SPL of 118 dB per pair. The tweeter, which extends up to 25 kHz, works as a team with the HPS Waveguide. This allows an optimal radiation of the high frequencies, which means the advantage of a more controlled, larger usable sweet spot during monitoring. With a bass extension down to 33 Hz, the T8V is especially suitable for users who produce bass-heavy music.

The T8V is a large, near-to-midfield professional studio monitor designed to welcome a new generation of producers, musicians, songwriters, content creators and music lovers to the ADAM Audio ecosystem.
