Studio Sound, Desktop Size

The ADAM Audio D3V Desktop Monitors are engineered to deliver exceptional sound quality in a compact form factor, making them ideal for smaller spaces like home studios or desktop setups. Built on ADAM Audio’s legacy of innovation, the D3V features the signature 1.5” D-ART (Desktop Accelerated Ribbon Tweeter), providing the same high-frequency clarity and detail that ADAM’s full-sized studio monitors are known for.

Each monitor is powered by a robust 80W amplifier driving a 3.5” aluminium woofer, complemented by dual-sided passive radiators that extend the bass response down to 45 Hz, providing rich low-end frequencies without compromising on size. The symmetrical voice coil and ferrite magnet system, optimized using ADAM Audio’s Klippel measurement technology, ensure minimal distortion and provide a linear sound at high volumes.

Key Features

• Fully Active 3.5” Woofers: Optimized aluminium woofers with a ferrite magnet system deliver high output levels with minimal distortion.
• D-ART Ribbon Tweeter: A 1.5” hand-folded ribbon tweeter provides crisp and clear high frequencies, drawing on ADAM Audio’s 25 years of tweeter innovation.
• Dual Passive Radiators: Four passive radiators extend bass response down to 45 Hz, reinforcing low-end accuracy without increasing the size of the cabinet.
• Direct USB-C Input: Acts as a digital output device for computers, mobile devices, and tablets, enabling high-quality audio playback without the need for additional interfaces.
• Balanced ¼" TRS Inputs: Allows for analogue connections to external gear such as audio interfaces, synths, or DJ mixers for professional versatility.
• DSP Room Acoustics Controls: Three user-friendly switches on the backplate address acoustical issues caused by speaker placement, desk size, and room characteristics.
