Adam Audio has premiered the Studio Pro SP-5, their first studio headphones. The SP-5 is a closed-backed, circumaural headphone that claims to deliver a balanced sound across a broad frequency spectrum from 8 Hz to 38 kHz. Its sound characteristics are best described as analytically precise, being developed to satisfy the exacting demands of pro audio monitoring and mixing.
This headphone integrates Ultrasone’s S-LOGIC technology, employing transducers spatially arranged to exploit the natural form of the human ear and utilizing the natural acoustics of the users pinna to channel sound into the ear canal. Another advantage of headphones deploying S-LOGIC technology is that they require less SPL to deliver the same subjectively experienced volume. This reduces distortion artifacts and avoids listening fatigue, making the SP-5 a good choice for long mixing sessions. Adam Audio developed the SP-5 in collaboration with the Bavarian company Ultrasone. Adam Audio’s speaker technology experts put the transducers selected for the SP-5 through an intensive re-voicing process to give the SP-5 its own special character.
Adam Audio’s Studio Pro SP-5 is available now for $499 / £499 / €549.
