ADAM Audio T10S Subwoofer for recording, mixing and mastering, Studio Quality Sound

Product Information

They are near field monitors meant to be used about 4 to 5 feet apart and angled in towards the listener. I mainly play techno so let me tell you, the sound is chunky, fruity, aloud and if the monitors don't fulfil the spheric loudness in the room you can always let in a bigger frequency range on the sub pushing crossover to 120. With a Maximum Peak Sound Pressure level (at 1m) of 104 dB, the T10s has more than enough power to handle even the most bass-hungry Electronic, Dance, Techno and Hip-Hop music production.

Takes a couple seconds for it to fire up when you haven't used it in 15 minutes, but it is a very minor issue. My challenge with the TV7s was the low end wasn't quite enough to keep up with trailers, particularly Sci-Fi and Crime Dramas. Since then the company has been developing and manufacturing loudspeakers and subwoofers for lovers of high-quality music and audio.You would generally be requested to enter the supplied activation code to activate the software and allow you to use the software on your specified computer or laptop. You have the possibility to extend the warranty period of all your ADAM products by up to three years to a total of five years. Brand new from ADAM Audio, the T10S is a powerful and compact active subwoofer, with a speaker diameter measuring 10".

Often users have their sub set way too loud, but the right way to set it is so that when you hit the footswitch to compare the sound with the main speakers on their own, all you miss is that lower octave — there should be no extra sense of loudness at the bass end with the switched sub in, just a sense of more depth.

Great care has been taken to ensure accuracy in the preparation of this article but neither Sound On Sound Limited nor the publishers can be held responsible for its contents. Performance, connectivity and features of the T10S subwoofer are designed to complement both ADAM Audio's T5V and the T7V near field monitors, though it is just as capable at delivering superb results when used with other studio monitors such as the Adam A7X. The T10S extends the frequency spectrum you hear when used in conjunction with a pair of Adam Audio T-series monitors, giving you a complete reference of the content you're working on.

By considering the frequency response and power handling, you're guaranteed optimal performance and an accurate reference every time. I purchased this because I work on producing trailer soundtracks for indie movies for my production company. Equipped with a down-firing 10 inch woofer and a 130 W Class-D amplifier, the T10S' frequency response ranges from 28 Hz to 120 Hz and offers an impressive max. Equipped with a 130 watt Class D amplifier, the T10S’ frequency response of 32 Hz to 120 Hz is tailored to extend the bass response of ADAM’s successful T Series studio monitor speakers. Since I've always got some music, video or game going, the standby function only comes into play if I'm away from the PC for a bit, or when I'm using headphones for a while.

I can hardly give up the reproduction of the last two octaves, those that with the woofer located as close as possible to the floor, propagate from the bass and envelop you, sometimes gently sometimes with energy, vibrations that strongly contribute to the involvement and warmth of listening. A ported cabinet will always introduce a little time 'smearing' but in this case there was nothing to cause me concern, and given the low cost of this sub I thought it performed admirably. The T10S is a powerful yet compact active subwoofer, designed to extend the bass response of any nearfield studio monitor.

The T10S is fitted with a polarity invert switch and an internal crossover with three settings (80Hz, 120Hz, or Bypass), making it easy to integrate the sub with your mains and optimize for room acoustic and overall system performance in your room. Equally, the T10S can be paired up to almost any standard studio montiors via Balanced XLR or Unbalanced RCA cable connectors. The subwoofer goes low down to 28Hz and through to 120Hz, which you can also limit to 80Hz with a crossover filter switch on the back.The subwoofer amplifies a total of 130 watts, which is a lot and more than enough for the average studio. How pleasant is the listening and the perception of the pressure of the kick drum, of the symphonic timpani and of all those frequencies that speakers not predisposed and designed for this purpose cut.
