Adam Audio of Germany

Or you could go to Québec since Diffusion Audio is the Canadian distributor for Adam. Please check with Andy sales@diffusion-audio.com

I have heard the Column MK3 under their Classic Line, and for the money (7K), these things will challenge anything double its asking price. I have heard the WA Sophia 2's and Totem Wind 2's, and I prefer the sound of the Adam Audio's. If one is looking for realistic reproduction of music, without the harshness of midrange and treble, this is your speaker if it is in your budget.

The Totem Wind 2's were powered by Shindo Masseto, Classe CT 2300 and an Accuphase CD-Player whereas the Adam Audios were powered by Shindo Monbrison, SimAudio Moon Power Amp and CD player. Both were treated rooms. I am excited to hear the Tensor Series, mainly the Beta and Alpha.

They sell them at Lyric Hi-Fi in NYC I will be buying a pair next week. They sound and look great.

Adam is a great company, making great products. I have heard several of their models at various shows here in Europe, and they all sounded very impressive. All the reviews I have read were very positive as well. They offer both Active and Passive models.

I have heard nearly every model in the Tensor series and I can vouch that these speakers are excellent. I would describe the sound as neutral, extended, and very much a full range experience (as in, it goes up, and it goes down). The midrange and top end are particularly good - clean, airy, and uncoloured.

This is not a speaker that colours the sound, so to some it may lack warmth and sound a bit analytical. However I now believe that you should get the most neutral speaker possible. If you like a bit of colouration (as I do) then it should be done via electronics. In this case, use a tube preamp.
