Got these about a week ago and have been comparing them to a pair of Genelec 8010s and Auratone 5Cs. The top end is much smoother than either, and I don't get fatigued like with the Genelecs. Bass goes much lower than either and the 3 position switch on the back tailors the sound. Be aware that in the desk and wall positions the DSP hasan effect on the midrange as well. There is one problem that I foundbut it could be my setup. When I use the USB C input, when I look atAudio Midi Setup on my mac mini I can only get 16 bit sound even though Adam claims 24 bits. I contacted them and they don't know what the problem is. I guess I'll just have to use the TRS balanced analog inputs until I can get a good answer somewhere. All in all it'sa good product and the bass it ... MoreGot these about a week ago and have been comparing them to a pair of Genelec 8010s and Auratone 5Cs.

All in all it'sa good product and the bass it is outputting in my room is comparable to speakers with 5 or 6 inch woofers.

Hi. I got these to use as a desktop set of monitors to use by the computer in my study. Driving them off a Mac M4 through Roon/Qobuz. The physical quality of the speakers is impressive and the controls are intuitive. The speakers are surprisingly accurate with good frequency response even in the bass. They are not warm and fuzzy. They project a near linear and precise presentation of the recorded music. Although they still sound great, what I didn't like is that the DAC in the speakers downsamples the audio from Qobuz/Roon. I have now placed an external DAC between the Mac and the speakers using USB to the DAC and then XLR balanced outs to balanced TRS inputs in the speakers for full resolution Hi-Fi from Qobuz. In my mind I can hear the difference. In reality -- ... MoreHi. I got these to use as a desktop set of monitors to use by the computer in my study. Driving them off a Mac M4 through Roon/Qobuz.

Adam Audio D3V Active Desktop Monitor System White (Pair)
The D3V is a fully active desktop monitoring system designed for songwriters, producers, and music lovers who want to enjoy ADAM Audio sound quality as conveniently as possible. Available in white or black editions, the active monitors feature the iconic golden ribbon tweeter and stay true to ADAM Audio’s German industrial design heritage. Fully Active Aluminium 3.5” Woofers & Ferrite Magnet System Optimised using ADAM Audio’s state-of-the-art Klippel measurement system, the extremely symmetrical voice coil and ferrite magnet system help minimize unwanted distortions and provide a linear motor for the woofer. Each one-piece concave cone is made of ridged, thick aluminium with a long linear excursion range which delivers uncoloured sound even at surprisingly high output levels. The D3V is a fully active design with four individual amplifier channels and DSP-managed crossover. The woofers are powered by 80W amplifiers with the link cable carrying an amplified signal to the right speaker. D-ART Tweeter A quarter century of ribbon tweeter research and development has led to the creation of ADAM Audio’s highly capable 1.5” Desktop Accelerated Ribbon Tweeter. Each diaphragm is hand folded and glued with 40W amplifiers driving each unit. Like the rest of ADAM Audio’s tweeters, the D-ART incorporates crossover fine-tuning which is managed by highly accurate DSP. Passive Radiators The D3V employs dual-sided passive radiators on each speaker for a total of four per system. Each radiator consists of a stainless-steel plate as the moving mass, and a specially stabilised long-stroke rubber surround for the suspension. Together they reinforce the lowest possible response of the loudspeaker through their interaction with the main woofers, as well as contributing toward the overall SPL of the system. Direct USB-C Input The D3V represents ADAM Audio’s most convenient monitoring system thanks to the inclusion of a plug’n’play USB-C input. The loudspeakers behave as a digital output device when connected to a computer, mobile, or tablet, which negates the need for an additional audio interface. This direct digital connection facilitates high-quality audio playback without the compression or conversion normally associated with desktop monitors. DSP Room Acoustics On the backplate of the left speaker you can find three switches to counteract the typical acoustical issues that arise from speaker placement. “POSITION” refers to the fixed position of the loudspeaker in the room. “DESK” refers to the size of the desk in front of the loudspeaker, while “ROOM” refers to the amount of acoustic treatment in the space in which the system is being used. Balanced Analogue Inputs In addition to the USB-C input, the D3V features analogue inputs for traditional audio applications. It allows for balanced connections to audio interfaces as well as direct connections to all kinds of hardware including synthesizers, drum machines, samplers, and DJ mixers. The USB-C or balanced analogue inputs can be toggled by pressing the volume knob on the left speaker. Headphone Output, Monitor Stands & Mounting Options Functionality and convenience played a major role in the design of the D3V. The front-facing headphone output automatically takes over audio playback when connected, while detachable monitor stands angled at 15° are also included. Additionally, there is a standard threaded 3/8” hole for microphone stand mounting on the underside of both monitors. Injection-Moulded Cabinet The D3V’s cabinet is made of high-grade injection moulded ABS Polycarbonate, with thick walls and plenty of bracing to avoid vibrations and unwanted resonances. The rounded shape reduces unwanted sound diffraction at high frequencies, while also paying tribute to ADAM Audio’s long-standing industrial design heritage.
