Adam Audio - A3X - 80W Active Studio Monitor Pair (In-store stock)

Dimensions: 252 mm (H) x 150 mm (W) x 185 mm (D)

Warranty: 2 years

The A3X is the smallest monitor speaker currently produced by ADAM Audio, making it ideal for environments where space is limited but high audio quality is required. The A3X utilizes ADAM's famous X-ART tweeter to provide crystal-clear sound quality.
The A3X uses a 4.5-inch woofer. The diaphragm is made of carbon fiber, which is lightweight yet extremely rigid, delivering completely uncolored sound. Additionally, the A3X features two built-in 25W amplifiers.

Stereoflink

The A3X and A5X speakers feature a highly significant technical characteristic: the Stereolink function. The speakers include additional RCA connectors that allow one channel of a stereo signal to be bypassed to the other speaker.
This new technology enables two A3X speakers to be connected together, allowing the overall stereo signal to be controlled via the gain knob on one speaker. The overall monitoring volume is easily controlled, meaning the entire system eliminates the need for an external volume control mixer.
