Active 3-Way Main Monitor (horizontal)

The ADAM Audio S5H is the horizontal main monitor of the S Series, built for the demands of large studios and control rooms. Two 10" woofers with ELE and SMA technology deliver powerful, uncoloured bass down to 22 Hz.

The 4" DCH midrange driver, a hybrid of dome and cone, reproduces the mids precisely, while the S-ART tweeter handmade in Berlin provides clear highs and a detailed stereo image. MPS and HPS waveguides milled from solid aluminium widen the sweet spot so that several people can work together at the desk.

The S Series DSP board contains the crossover, two shelving filters, six fully parametric equalizers and five preset memories for room adaptation. AES3 digital inputs, a USB port for updates and control, and limiters protecting the tweeter amplifier are on board. Three PWM power amplifiers with 700, 300 and 100 watts drive the three ways.
