This manual is intended to provide you with information about your new
ADAMs. It contains important information regarding safety, setting up,

The A8X is a near- and midfield monitor. It is perfectly suited for a wide
variety of stereo and multi-channel professional applications including
control rooms, desktops, mobile facilities and post-production edit bays as
well as connection to your favorite mp3-players and gaming consoles...in
other words, in any situation where a combination of no-compromise sound

The A8X is a two-way ported active system that uses ADAM's proprietary
X-ART folded ribbon tweeter ensuring full compatibility with the latest
expanded high frequency resolution media formats, and a conventional bass/
midrange driver below the crossover frequency of 2.3 kHz. Each section uses
an individual amp with continuous output of up to 50 (tweeter) and 150
