- In this video, I will be testing the Yamaha HS8 against the Adam Audio A7V. Which do you think is the best studio monitors 2022. Adam Audio monitors are really great and been having a great time doing an adam audio a7v review. Testing them with my Yamaha hs8s I noticed a few things. One of these studio monitors is the best budget studio monitors. I hope this adam audio a7v test or Yamaha hs8 test helps you determine which you should get.

30KillaBeatz Background
Rapper/Producer 30KillaBeatz/RIch Goat was born Brandon Beasley in Detroit Michigan, 30K was raised by his hard-working mother and stepfather in multiple locations such as Virginia, Tennessee, Germany, North Carolina, Oklahoma, and Hawaii because of his father's affiliation with the military. He was also known for getting in trouble in school and starting fights. After school, he would go to the Youth Center and wait till his parents picked him up after they got off work. There he saw an old piano that the other kids would play with from time to time. He was amazed and started messing with it himself. He got so good he played one of Beethoven's songs in front of the whole school. All the other parents were amazed and asked his mom if young 30K could teach their kids how to play the piano.

LIKE THE VIDEO GANG 💪🏽
Thanks for the test. Help me a lot. 👍 I just bought the A7V and with the « UNR » mode, definitely no need for a sub. The bass are sufficient and more precise than my old Tapco S8 (Mackie). These monitors are fabulous, I recommend. 👌
For the price point of the HS8 you can't deny that it's a great value. The fact that it's even in the conversation with more expensive monitors speaks volumes😂
Not even close.
@@user-eu6wp6ws7c What? You can get a pair of HS8s for $600 new right now (November 2023). At that price the Adams are nearly three times the price. That's a huge difference.
Hi, thanks for the video. Have you calibrated both speakers? Because it sounds as if the A7Vs are calibrated and the Yamahas are not. I calibrated my HS8s to my room with ARC3 and the difference is night and day.
I have found a pair of adam t7vs and yamaha hs8s for a very similar price, and I often produce dance/edm music [and sometimes trap] - which one should I go for?
Nice vid. Don’t need the sub for my A7Vs. I get good base and trust the low sounds. They go very low, provide a nice punch and thanks to the features in customizing the sound.
Love the A7v's If you make hiphop music I think a sub is key for mixing to monitor the low end but you may not need it for other genres. Thanks for watching !
I am looking at the A7Vs but I'll definitely want to control the DSP from my computer. Does the wire just go from the computer to the speaker? Or do I need to plug the wire to the router?
when you increase the highs on HS8 2db, is it the same "remove blanket" effect?
Which one is best for music production?
Dope content bro, keep going 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you! Thanks for watching 💪🏽💪🏽
The ethernet option, do you plug that just into the computer? Or does it have to go into the router?
Thank you!
Thanks for watching💪🏽
Yamaha never sounded muffled did u put the treble down on the back , how's the bass on Adams vs Yamahas? when I checked the Adams before it was very very flat no bass at all but maybe it was the Adam a7 the old model
My personal preference goes to HS8 after watching this video. Yes AA sound a bit more in heights, due to that they sound clearer. However in HS8 the sound is still perfectly clear but filled with that sweet mids 👍
Adam, no competition here
Yamaha HS8 for me. Mixing is not for the studio, final mix is for the consumer. Many consumer speakers have a V or U shaped EQ curve. So mixing on a more neutral speaker should WOW the Klipsch fan consumers, for example. Final mix must be tested on different types of consumer equipment. Then pick your favorite monitor. That is what I do. So far my mix has been popular with the average joe. Thanks for the video. Mixing is very tricky and often counter intuitive.
I have the yamahas and they're awful.. I have Focals, dynoaudio and genelecs. The yamahas out of all of them give the worst mix over emphazing the mids and highs giving a false impression. They also have the worse bass response.
Get what you are saying, having some ugly favourites as well, yet this is why I find monitor discussion as one of most subjective, because despite the charts, measurements or marketing tricks - the final decision is the matter of beauty in the eye of beholder, and ear in particular acoustic space with particular monitor - as you will find literally extreme number of people, me included, having quite opposite experience with HS8 to yours, and not only in this price range, as you can find more than a few, who would say HS8 deliver next to a finer stuff without a shadow of the doubt, having these next to some much more expensive monitors. In any case - and that we can agree on - room / acoustics are crucial factor of subjective perception / objective measurements. Cheers!
A7V for sure, and have you tried atc monitors? I think the scm25 pro would be the best for you
Not yet. I’ll look into it gang. Thanks for watching ✊🏽
So you saying that in the A7V you won’t hear the 808’s as much or clear? Vs the yamaha
Yes Thanks for watching !
@@30killabeatz for making beats in the rap/hiphop genre would you recommend the a7v's? i got the yamaha hs7's rn and they work fine, thinking if i should pull the trigger on the a7v's. need something with a clear sound and perfect for mixing.
@@mrcamera8 oh yea I highly recommend them and been using them more the my hs8 but definitely get a sub
Adam a7 OGs are the
Best! Also, I would get genelec if I had infinite money. Those egg shaped ones.
I could hear that blanket from my Yamaha hs7
i dont understand the comments... the low end is AMAZING so far. let them burn in for 8 hrs and they sound even better. gonna do a bunch of mixing soon and then update my comment but so far they are dope
How are things going with your monitors?
@notsogood9449 I love these Monitors
@@prod.bymoodie Are you talking about the Hs8's or the Adam audio's?
@@notsogood9449 adams
Despite the fact I love HS8 here, and obvious differences between these in the question, there are certain areas I would say Adam A7 do provide super clear picture within mid part of the bandwidth, but would not call them superior in the highs - super detailed, although different to HS8. Nevertheless both monitors on are "brighter" side of that end, some may call harsh. I found Yams tight, and quite revealing all across the spectrum, especially in higher mids. In general they have not any significant deficiencies in translation, thats where I find their greatest value - they work as a tool. Perhaps I'd call them very slightly laid back in the mid to low mid area, but they provide very tight and punchy lows. Would not say the particular A7 is superior in the highs explicitly, but found them extremely useful in lots of decisive situations over the higher register, especially as 2nd monitor next to 8inch since they naturally provide the mid end detail and clarity with general balance. 8inch HS, although pretty flat across the board seems bit laid back with mids in comparison to 6,5" or smaller as these tend (at least subjectively to me ) to deliver to listener more information across the mids in general. HS8 can sing super sweet when in properly treated room but are not immune, nor forgiving in terms of space or placement, as perhaps lots of 8" inch monitors do. My personal experience was night and day - 1st time heard HS8 in small untreated room - they were ugly, all over, of course, as would perform any monitor. Then took them to well treated place, and was blown out by their detailed sound with fizzy highend, tight lows and punch / transient response. When installed them in my well treated place, I was surprised how I felt every 5-10cm change in their positioning, when setting them up. Adams are stable benchmark, they deliver and I would say they complement HS8 more than perfectly. Enjoy these !!!
Great comparison video! ADAM Audio are the best 💯
I agree! Thanks for watching Kat! 💪🏽
i would go with the a7V's, with a sub! I'm poor though, so i would have to go with the yamaha's right now.
Definitely! Thanks for watching!
Same lol
What about Kali Audio IN-8s?! Everyone ignores these but I don’t see why, the V2’s look promising
Video coming soon 😉
Everyone doesn't ignore those. Plenty of videos out there about those monitors.
I just bought a pair of the A7V for my PC audio. I’m absolutely in love with them. I’m not a music producer. I just love listening to great music and playing great games. I also bought the Adam Sub8 for a complete Adam Audio setup. This is so much better than the passive speakers I used for years. Great video, mate!
That's awesome! that I think there worth it man so much better with a sub as well. Thanks for watching!
@@30killabeatz Hellz yeah! You've got a new subscriber, too. 👍
I'm pretty interested in the Sub8, presume it pairs nicely?
@@leeadkins1360 Yes, they work very well together.
@@user-nj4lo1hb9o Listen to Nine Inch Nails and Deadmaus on the A7V then get back to me. Pass on the Sub8, tho. It's pretty weak. I bought an SVS 3000 Micro which is a perfect match for the A7V.
Not fair! You need to compair with T8v.
🏆
Thanks for watching! 💪🏽
💯
Thanks for watching! 💪🏽
HS8 sounds more full, especially in the lower ends
hi fi spekers - monitors ...hs8 - adam
they completely different price brackets...
Definitely! Thanks for watching!
Yamaha HS8 Black Friday $299 each.
They are that price again right now (Nov 23') That's a great deal.
I just bought the A7Vs following the advice, in particular of this video, and I regret it.
I was thinking of upgrading from the yamaha HS8 to the A7V which cost double. But the HS8 sounds a lot bigger, they're a lot more bass friendly and have huge headroom, I've never used more than half the volume on them. While the A7V seem to me like locked in a box. by increasing the volume the bass saturates quickly with an overload indicator on the LED. The settings on the back of the speaker are almost as useless as on the HS8, and the DSP will never be useful to me because it's much too tiresome to implement and you have to pay for a software subscription. The bass vents at the front may have reduced the clutter in the bass a little, but there is above all less bass altogether. The only advantage is a very slightly more open sound in the treble with the ribbon twitters, but then the gain is really ridiculous in my opinion.
To take advantage of ADAM audio you would also have to spend 500 Dollars on a subass system like in this video
Did you use sonar works to get a flat frequency?
@@30killabeatz No I didn't ... and it's seems to be a lil bit complicated :( Because I have to update my mac to big sure or later, I have to buy some ethernet interface, and the dedicated microphone. Then the real shame is that we have to pay after the 60 day trial version, if i well understand. For a 1200€ pair... it's hard.
To deal with the lack of bass in my pair, I'm going to have to buy a sub7 pro that costs almost the price of the HS8. The HS8 was a compact system that didn't require a subwoofer for my use.
Once I got the $500 subwoofer and calibrated my speakers with all the crap that entails, I'd probably have something far superior to the HS8. But it will have cost me 2000€ against 600€.
If I had known that I would have to stick a subwoofer, I would have chosen smaller and cheaper speakers at adam audio than the A7V model, because it is useless to have such large speakers in a 2.1 system, where the low frequencies are splitted
Why didn't you test the speakers first?
@@brandonwilliams966 Their are no "listening room" in my city
I have the A7V and trust me , they sound amasing bass punchy warm and crisp all are there , i produce EDM Muisc and the final master sounds 🔥
A7V! Buuuut needs a sub fooorsure lol
Definitely! Thanks for watching bro!
Adam wins it
Thanks for watching!
A7V all the way!
