ADAM Audio S5H Active 3-Way Main Studio Monitor (Single)

The ADAM Audio S5H is a flagship 3-way active main studio monitor engineered for the most demanding professional recording, mixing, mastering, film scoring, and broadcast environments. Designed with a horizontally oriented cabinet, the S5H combines dual 10-inch ELE™ (Extended Linear Excursion) HexaCone woofers, a dedicated 4-inch Dome/Cone Hybrid (DCH) midrange driver, and ADAM Audio's handcrafted S-ART folded-ribbon tweeter to deliver extraordinary sonic accuracy, exceptional headroom, and full-range monitoring performance for world-class studios.

At the heart of the S5H is ADAM Audio's precision-engineered Midrange Propagation System (MPS) and High-frequency Propagation System (HPS) waveguides, ensuring a wide listening sweet spot, outstanding stereo imaging, and highly controlled dispersion. The dual ELE woofers utilize ADAM Audio's proprietary Symmetrical Magnet Assembly (SMA) technology, delivering deep, articulate bass with extremely low distortion, while the DCH midrange driver provides exceptional vocal clarity and instrument separation across the critical mid-frequency range.

Powered by a sophisticated three-channel amplification system, the S5H features a 700 W PWM amplifier for the low-frequency section, a 300 W PWM amplifier for the midrange driver, and a 100 W PWM amplifier for the S-ART tweeter, delivering a combined RMS output of 1,100 W. Integrated DSP technology provides precise crossover management, parametric EQ, room compensation, delay adjustment, and user presets, while balanced XLR analog and AES3 digital connectivity ensure seamless integration into modern professional studio installations.
