Flagship 3-way active main monitor with 2 × 10″ HexaCone woofers, 4″ DCH midrange driver, S-ART tweeter, 22 Hz-50 kHz frequency response and 1100 W RMS combined amplification.

The ADAM Audio S5H is a professional flagship 3-way active main monitor designed for demanding reference listening in large studios and control rooms. Optimized for horizontal use, it combines two 10″ ELE HexaCone woofers, a 4″ DCH Dome/Cone Hybrid midrange driver and a German handmade S-ART tweeter.

The solid-aluminum MPS and HPS waveguides provide controlled midrange and high-frequency dispersion, creating a wide and stable sweet spot suitable for multiple people working in the control room simultaneously. The S-ART tweeter and DCH midrange driver deliver detailed and natural reproduction with extensive dynamic range.

The integrated DSP optimizes crossover operation and provides 6 parametric EQs, High-Shelf and Low-Shelf room compensation, 5 preset memories and 0-5 ms delay adjustment. The DSP also processes AES3 digital signals and provides high-frequency driver protection. S Control Remote software enables DSP control, while the USB port is used for software updates.

Three PWM amplifiers provide 700 W RMS to the woofers, 300 W RMS to the DCH midrange driver and 100 W RMS to the S-ART tweeter, delivering 1100 W of combined RMS amplification.
