Since then the company has been developing, manufacturing and distributing loudspeakers in the field of Professional Audio. The development of the X-ART (eXtended Accelerating Ribbon Technology) tweeter based on the 1960’s invention of the Air Motion Transformer by Oskar Heil was largely responsible for the company’s founding. Producing sound not with a piston-like diaphragm as is done in most of the loudspeakers that are on the market, but using a pleated diaphragm that is capable of moving the air 4 times faster than the folds themselves are moving was the appealing idea behind it all. The achieved results were intriguing and gave ample reason for moving forward. #ADAMAudio #StudioMonitors #Recording #Mixing #Studio #Monitors #A7X #T5V #T7V #T8V #A77X #S2V #S3H #S3V #S5V #S5H #T10S #A5X #A3X #ADAMMonitors
