Product overview
About this model
The ADAM Audio D3V active studio monitors provide high-definition sound for your studio. Built with premium components, D3Vs feature 3.5" aluminum woofers, dual-sided 3.5" passive radiators and 1.5" ribbon tweeters to deliver full-range audio with stunning clarity and detail. With a USB-C input, the D3Vs connect directly to your computer for high-resolution playback of your DAW projects. Whether you're producing electronic music or recording live instruments, the DV3s give you the transparent, accurate monitoring needed to shape your mix. Premium Drivers Reveal Nuances in Your Mix The D3V's drivers are carefully engineered to provide the wide, balanced frequency response needed for mixing. The aluminum woofers and passive radiators extend deep into the bass range, allowing you to hear—and fix—issues with the lowest frequencies in your tracks. Ribbon tweeters are renowned for their crisp, detailed high end, enabling you to pick out barely perceptible details in the highest registers. With this combination of premium drivers, the D3Vs make it easy to achieve a balanced, professional-sounding mix. Direct Digital Connection for High-Resolution Playback The D3V's USB-C input provides a direct digital connection to your computer, allowing high-resolution 24-bit/48kHz audio playback without an external interface. This plug-and-play functionality means you can start mixing right out of the box without configuring software or adjusting gain levels. Whether you use Mac, Windows or iOS, the D3Vs seamlessly integrate into your setup for an intuitive workflow. Room Optimization Switches Minimize Acoustic Issues Placement in your studio space can significantly impact the sound of your monitors. The D3Vs feature three switches on the rear panel to help combat common acoustical problems. The Position switch tailors the bass response for speakers placed close to walls or in corners. The Desk switch adjusts the midrange for different desktop sizes. And the Room switch tweaks the treble to account for more or less acoustic treatment. With these useful tone shaping tools, you can optimize the D3Vs for your unique setup. Stylish Design Complements Any Creative Space In addition to their premium components and connectivity, the D3Vs boast an attractive, rounded design. Their sleek black cabinetry and illuminated front panel logo add a touch of style to your studio. Detachable stands provide the ideal listening angle, while standard microphone stand mounts give you flexibility in positioning. Overall, the D3Vs combination of high performance, intelligent features and contemporary aesthetics make them a perfect compact monitor solution for music creators.
