Slated for introduction at CEDIA EXPO 2009, the new Classic Mk3 Series loudspeakers from ADAM Audio benefit from technical breakthroughs developed in the company's high-end TENSOR Series and offers significant enhancements in sound reproduction along with a slim, elegant new look.

Available in a range of passive and active models from small monitors to larger full range floor standing models, Classic Mk3’s are easily adaptable to all room sizes for both stereo and multi-channel applications.

Technical improvements in the top-line Column Mk3 Tower include ADAM’s new proprietary X-ART (Accelerating Ribbon Technology) tweeters that ensure extended frequency response with maximum efficiency. In the active version, ADAM’s new A/B amplifier drives the high frequency section. The Column also features ADAM’s new high-quality X-ART lower midrange driver and two new Hexacone™ 7” woofers for exceptional full range reproduction from 28 Hz to 50 kHz.

Using many of the same drivers as the Column and also driven by ADAM’s A/B amplifier, the new Pencil Mk3 reveals even the subtlest details of the higher frequency range. The Pencil’s powerful, accurate low range reproduction results from the high quality materials and drivers combined with two woofers to distribute the lower frequencies. One woofer acts as a full range driver while the other reproduces frequencies below 150 Hz, effectively doubling the area and power of the bass reproduction.

The Compact Mk3 uses the same components as the larger Classic Mk3 speakers to provide incomparable sound quality in a compact size. The Center Mk3 and SW260 Mk3 subwoofer also feature matching Classic Series components to achieve sonic homogeneity and the same sophisticated level of reproduction for multichannel systems.

The subwoofer expands the frequency of any system down to 25Hz while a level control, phase switch (±180°), variable upper frequency (50-150Hz), and a switchable 85Hz high pass filter for satellite output allow it to be adapted to any system and its particular needs.

All standing models are equipped with new base plates and spikes to improve decoupling from the floor and finishes are in high gloss black. New wood veneers will be introduced later this year.

Pricing for this series ranges from $2500 a pair for the passive Compact Mk3 to $10,000 a pair for the active Column Mk3 Tower speakers.
