I am a video editor and had to part with my Genelecs - my standards I feel were high. Bought these and have to say I am impressed - amazing clarity out of such a small box. The tweeters are especially impressive. It’s a shame I have to edit for lousy laptops with incredible bad audio, but editing with these is pure joy. Kudos to Adam Audio for making these at an affordable price.

作曲のモニターに使っています。小さいのに素晴らしいです。

These little speakers punch way above their weight in quality of sound. And they are superbly designed, from the way the included stands angle the speakers upward from a typical desk surface to the way those stands slide into the speaker bases. Their bottoms are covered with a great non-slip material. The box also includes a few strips of non-slid material you can put onto the bottoms of the speakers, and they go into well-designed grooves that are designed to fit around the stands when you use them. Every aspect of the design radiates quality.All of this is in service of sound as good as any speakers this size I've ever heard. The tweeters radiate in a tight cone, so you want to be sure you've got them pointed at your ears - if you're too far off-axis, you'll lose those crisp high ends. So if you're looking for a pair of everyday room speakers that sound fine as you walk around the room, these wouldn't be a great choice for that reason. But that's not what they were designed for - they are monitors for people sitting between them, either a musician or engineer working on music, or just a music lover who spends a lot of time in one spot, such as working at the computer. For those people, these are fabulous.Update: The original release of the speakers included two problems (the highs were diminished at low volumes, and the speakers turned off automatically after being quiet for a while, requiring you to manually turn them on again later). People complained, and the manufacturer released a software patch that resolved both issues. The patch came out for both Windows and Mac (a rarity), and it worked perfectly. I consider that really fantastic customer service. Great speakers from a great company!

The are excellent for near field desktop use, up to about three-four feet from the speakers. I "downgraded" from larger speakers four times the price with only a tiny reduction in overall bass fullness. The amount of desk real estate and cash recovered was well worth it. The ribbon tweeter is very clean and detailed without being harsh. For thir size, the bass is excellent. The internal DAC via USB-C is excellent. I now rarely feel the need to switch to my external Chord DAC on my desk unless using headphones. The headphone jack/amp on the DV3s is acceptable, but nothing special.Two minor issues. 1) You'll need an external DAC if you want to add a subwoofer. The DV3s don't have a sub connection. 2) Stand by mode activates automatically and shuts off if no sound for 20 min. It cuurently can't be deactivated, but supposedly a firmware fix is forthcoming.Easy to set up, Highly recommended, particularly if desk space is a concern. 4 75 stars.

スタンディングのデスクに、動画視聴やDTM用に購入。デザインが格好良く、コンパクトですがサウンドもADAMらしくて大変気に入りました。低音も出過ぎなくらい出ますが、なにより小型にありがちな音質の安っぽさがなく、忠実な感じがしますのでモニターとしても重宝しそうです。

音量にも余裕があり音楽からゲームまで問題なく使えます。長く使えそうなスピーカーです

この価格で、この高音質。ニアフィールドで聴く限り、低域の不足なんて微塵も無い。

TL;DR This is a 5 star product *for people like me*: Small desk (no more than 5.5 ft apart sitting on the desk), with a subwoofer, and the ability to run crossover (so these 3 inch woofers don't have to try and go bellow 120hz). They are a 4 star product generally because they are not for everyone, but if I described your usecase then don't hesitate.My Reference: is the Audio Engine A5 these are replacing, and headphones (hifiman he400i). Those will be my primary comparisons. My audio source was a Monolith THX AAA (DAC/amp), until I got a Wiim Ultra (streamer) which is my current audio source, which also outputs to my S8 subwoofer. My room is treated (floor, ceiling, 2.5 walls). Cords: As someone else had said, the cord connecting the powered speaker to the other is short, 78 inches on my measuring tape, but I would bet that with the length of the actual plug on either end of the cord, you get maybe 69 or 70 inches of usable length out of this. It's a very thick cable with 4 pins, similar to an XLR; plug standard TBD.It does not come with a cable for analog audio in, which is a dual 1/4 inch headphone jack, so it would be hard to use these without an audio device of some sort (DAC, amp, DAC/amp, streamer in my case), unless you use the built in DAC which won't give you the clarity these things are capable of.SoundThe one complaint: I have about the audio itself is that in order to not hear how small these speakers are, you need a subwoofer and the ability to do crossover; set the crossover to above 120hz (mine is set to 145). If this were my experience I'd take off another star. Not sure if that's really fair to expect from drivers this small, especially at this price point, but I can't leave it out.Mid range: That said, my experience is with a subwoofer and a streamer with crossover functionality. The mids are rich and detailed, even the lower mids are full, which is really impressive for a speaker this small. The smaller size of the drivers becomes an asset, because weight is the enemy of accurate decay. These have fantastic imagining, bass guitars, explosions, deep voices, etc. all sound very, very detailed, but they not taxing on the ears.Highs: The highs are what you expect when you get ribbon tweeters, present and pleasant. The same richness and balance in the mids is maintained until beyond 20Khz. Violins, glass shattering, cymbals, etc. have detail and "texture" that you probably won't have heard before if you haven't had ribbon tweeters.Build: These feel like a brick in the hand, and the lack of ports means there's less room for dust to get at the electronics. They're made of a thick layer of very dense plastic/polymer, similar to what power tools are made of (but thick). They are the height of a 20 bottle of cocacola, just bellow the rim (right under the cap). They are SO small, it's fantastic. And they pump out some BIG sound, with detail I was expecting from Adam Audio (a professional recording studio monitor manufacturer first and foremost).Aesthetics: these are professional/industrial, they're meant to not draw attention, and I like that. It makes my desk feel more like a home theater when I turn down the lights having speakers that melt into the black background, as opposed to speakers that are trying to say something stylistically. I appreciate that the manufacturer made speakers that are meant to be heard and not seen, but it's preference. They are pleasant when I do look at them, though, just professional and subdued.Advice for anyone getting any speakers/looking for better sound, if you're spending this amount on speakers or more, you'll get more detail by working on peripherals like your audio source/processing, adding a subwoofer or adding sound absorbing materials to your space than you would spending more money on speakers. Couches and beds are great sound absorbers, so are thick carpets.If I were Adam Audio I'd ditch the speaker stands and put in analog in cords. But this is their first mass-market product, and it's a real winner imo.

These speakers are incredible. The low end seems impossible, but it’s true. They are open and wide sounding - and honestly they are the first desktop-type mini speakers I think I could actually mix on. My entire family was gathered around, looking stupefied at how huge such small speakers could sound.Keep in mind that these are not the same as typical computer speakers. They are designed to be used as a high quality tool for mixing and audio production. They are not designed to be all-purpose computer speakers. So if you need to have the highest quality notifications come through, you may want to look elsewhere. But if you want to enjoy the details of your favorite music, or you are working on audio/video productions, these will blow you away.
