The Adam Professional Audio F5 2-Way Active Nearfield Studio Monitor is a nearfield solution for recording, mixing and mastering music, film, video and other scenarios that require vertical studio audio monitoring. The F5 features an ART tweeter that delivers extended frequency response up to 50 kHz, resulting in pristine, detailed and accurate high frequencies that are well suited for high-resolution audio of 96 and 192 kHz. The tweeter and mid-woofer are independently amplified with 25W amplifiers driving both the mid-woofer and the ART tweeter. There are balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA connections on the rear, along with a power switch and volume control dial.
