Monitors with built-in Room Calibration.

ADAM Audio A Series. I just feel that the way this is written makes it sound rather like all Adam A series monitors have room correction. Whilst the current available V and H monitors as described do have calibration EQ, older A series monitors (like the A7X) certainly don’t.

So maybe changing the first line; “ADAM Audio’s A series comprises of five active models” to “ADAM Audio’s current A series comprises of five active models” (or similar) in the online article might stop some people from buying used older A series monitors in the mistaken belief that they have room correction.

I know it should be unlikely to happen and the current models are mentioned individually, but you can’t account for some people misunderstanding the situation.

That sounds reasonable to me. I've requested an edit to the web article to make sure it's nice and clear that it only applies to the current range.

Cheers, Wonks!
