Its active crossover can be set to either 80Hz, 120Hz or bypass, and appropriately high-pass–filtered outputs are provided to feed the connected 'tops'.

The sub, with its crossover was also tested with a pair of ADAM A5X and Yamaha NS10M, both of which are part of my studio's budget. Extend your low end — The T10S is a powerful yet compact active subwoofer, designed to extend the bass response and give a clearer picture into the low frequencies you might miss.

ADAM Audio monitors are among the most dependable and desirable available, and are found in some of the world's most celebrated studios. The acoustic performance was optimized by four high grade flexible rubber feet that prevent the sound from exciting the floor and a spacious rear facing bass reflex port for an optimized airflow. ADAM suggest having the front of the cabinet in line with the front of the main speakers, but in my experience it may be necessary to move the sub off-centre to provide the most even-sounding result.

There are no flimsy or loose parts, and nothing rattles no matter how hard the sub is pushed during operation.

Since then the company has been developing and manufacturing loudspeakers and subwoofers for lovers of high-quality music and audio.

Performance, connectivity and features of the T10S subwoofer are designed to complement both ADAM Audio's T5V and the T7V near field monitors, though it is just as capable at delivering superb results when used with other studio monitors such as the Adam A7X.

As mentioned by other commenters, this sub does have a standby mode that keeps it off when not in use.
