ADAM Audio T7V

When I first got these monitors I felt quite bad because I literally couldn't hear the C3 frequency. This was because the sound bouncing on the wall canceled out the sound coming directly from the monitors. I had 4 mattresses lying around so I built a little half cubical around my desk and this made the sound not drop out at important frequencies. Of course the frequency dips in some places but nothing drops out completely.
If there is something I would have wanted it would have been a little more precise settings on the speaker for room treatment. I have it set on max boost on the low frequencies and max decrease on the highs. And I think I would have turned them even more if I had the chance. I guess I just have to treat my room a little more but I am satisfied with the sound now

As a side note I really enjoy not wearing headphones all the time. There is a big difference between headphones and monitors, but in my humble opinion I feel like you can't go wrong with headphones (despite the annoyance of wearing them and not being able to play sound to other people in the room). You might not hear the bass all that well through headphones and you will certainly not feel it but the sound is much more accurate through headphones (if you have good ones). I sort of feel like playing music through my speakers muddies up the sound a bit. The stereo difference is also big and I feel like the monitors brings more warmth and emotion than the very accurate ( and robotic, if you will,) sounding headphones might be doing. It feels like I can pinpoint right where the sound is coming from somewhere between the monitors while in mono and the hardpanned sounds are not as hardpanned! I've been using the DT 770 PRO and i still use them when I want the sound to be more "accurate". If you can afford monitors I would recommend!

A problem I had was the sound of my computer. It isn't loud, but it brings this hiss to listening through monitors that my headphones would have blocked. I sort of solved this issue by strapping my computer to the underside of my standing desk. This mixed with the fact that I have matresses for walls and a matt on the floor makes the computer hard to hear and it is ideal for monitor listening!

These are some amazing studio monitors for the price I have to say. The sound is very clear and punchy. Low end is tight and sub heavy, highs are crisp and smooth. I have been using these for about a month now and I'm pretty happy with them. The build quality is decent as well. But they do have some things that I really dislike in terms of design itself.

#1: On/off light is on the back, not the front. What's the point of this light if you can't see it? Really annoying that I need to go to the back just to check the status. Many other brands in the same price range have this. It's Just a stupid decision imo.
#2: When turning the volume knob on the monitors it lightly crackles when playing music through them. This is on both units so I'm sure it's the same on all of them.
#3: Back ported bass ports. All Adam's previous models have been front ported, why change now? Their PR rep claims it's to keep costs down? This doesn't make sense because all their previous research and development has been with front ported models. Changing now does not make sense 'to keep costs down'. Their previous 'budget' model the F series had this, so all the PR talk about doing this to keep the cost low is simply not true.
#4: Only one balanced input. An extra TRS input would have been nice. They keep saying this is to keep to cost down, fair enough. But why can a lot of other companies that make models in the same price range do these things but not Adam Audio?

So all in all, great monitors sound wise. But with some ridiculous design decisions for sure. Their previous 'budget' series (F series) had both front ported bass ports and an essential on/off light on the front so it's really stupid they decided to drop these features. I would have
easily paid ¤50 to a ¤100 more for these (imo) essential features.

I used ARC3 with Behringer ECM 8000 measurement mic to profile these monitors. Of course the deviations from the linear curve could be attributed to a degree to the cheap measurement mic and the room acoustics, but for what is worth here is the result: a lot of signal is lost under 30Hz, there is about a +6dB peak around 47Hz, about +8dB around 140-160Hz and then there is again loss above 10kHz going down almost linearly from 0db to -50dB. This is when comparing to the "high-end midfield monitors" profile of ARC3 and indeed, the sound is improved when the correction is applied.

So in my case with some tweaking these monitor sound pretty good to me. One small thing that I don't like - power indicator LEDs are on the back. Inputs are XLR only so if you have TRS outputs on your audio interface make sure you get the right cables.

The monitors are not loud, which is good. By turning the volume up by half, you can work with them in a room of 12-15 square meters. The build quality is excellent, the packaging is reliable. Toman puts the pair in another box. We came to Russia for 8 days including 2 days off.

Cons: No rubber stand legs included. Very narrow sound direction, you definitely need to set them according to the triangle rule, otherwise all the sound and details are lost. Switches to +2 -2 Db deprive the sound of detail, while the bass itself is even a lot in them. It is not as accurate as on the monitors above the class, but it is there. Just spread out and more blows. I don't feel the detail of the timbres and effects. However, the entire frequency range is present.

Positive. For this price, a really cool sound. They can work from the RCA of ordinary tulips as household acoustics. You don't get tired of the sound. I didn't experience the WOW effect, the sound is good, but nothing more. In the reviews, everyone writes that it's fantastic, and my expectations were overstated. ( I've heard a lot of monitors)

Good active monitors for studio or home studio. The build quality is high, very well constructed, very solid. The sound is very "dry" not "characteristic", could be not very warm at high volumes; is quite true/accurate to the music/productions played thru it.

In my opinion at low/normal volumes the monitors sound great.

They don't have a huge amount of volume indeed. I keep it at 3 o'clock (probably few +dbs) in a home studio. Frequency response is quite good, depends a lot on the room treatments.
Quality-price I think is good for an entry level professional monitors to start making music with professional equipment.

Always make sure your chain is balanced in quality: mic, interface, monitors etc... (not something cheap with something too good)

Happy with it!
