The Adam A5s are a small set of studio monitors. These are active monitors, so they don't require any external power amplifier. The A5s are the smallest and cheapest monitors that Adam has to offer, and comes in both a white and black finish. I've only used the A5s for listening and monitoring on and not for mixing or critical listening, which I don't think they are suitable for in most situations.
SOUNDS
The sound of the Adam A5s is very impressive for a small set of monitors like this. I don't think that I'd recommend using these as your main monitors, although they definitely pack more punch and have more detail than any other monitors of this size that I've heard. They don't sound as thick and full as their bigger (and better) monitors, but they do offer a great deal of clarity and a good amount of low end presence for small monitors. I would imagine that most people will be using these as a set of 'B' monitors to compare mixes on, but I wouldn't be surprised if many home studio owner were to use these as their main monitors as well. I can't say that I discourage doing this, but I'd only recommend it in smaller studio situations.
OVERALL OPINION
Even though the Adam A5s are small and don't look like huge studio monitors, they're definitely above many speakers that look like them and are definitely impressive for the size. The price isn't too cheap for smaller monitors, but when you consider the big sound, it makes a lot more sense. I can see them being used in a variety of formats, but it really just depends on what you're looking for in a studio monitor. I'd recommend checking them out for yourself to best judge whether or not these would be useful for your studio situation.
