Sonarworks is excited to announce that the integration of SoundID Reference, the award-winning calibration software trusted by over 300,000 studios worldwide, now extends to ADAM Audio’s new Sub8 PRO and Sub10 PRO subwoofers. Launching today alongside ADAM Control – ADAM Audio’s new management and calibration platform – the Sub PRO models join the A Series studio monitors with built-in SoundID Reference support, bringing accurate calibration directly into the full monitoring system, from the mid and high frequencies down to the lowest octave.
Like the award-winning A Series, the Sub8 PRO and Sub10 PRO connect over Ethernet to ADAM Control, the free successor to A Control. From there, advanced filters created in SoundID Reference are deployed straight to the DSP embedded in each device. Calibration runs on the speakers themselves, so there is no correction plug-in to bypass before printing and no extra processing in the computer’s signal chain. ADAM Control gives users two calibration paths for stereo and multichannel Sub PRO and A Series systems. They can adjust EQ, gain, phase and delay manually at no additional cost, or use the more automated, measurement-based workflow of SoundID Reference.
Why You’ll Love It:
Calibration on the hardware DSP: SoundID Reference filters are applied inside the Sub PRO and A Series units, not in the DAW or on the system output.
One calibrated system, top to bottom: Monitors and subwoofers are measured and corrected together, so the low end is part of the same accurate picture.
Stereo and immersive setups: Calibrate stereo and multichannel systems, with LFE Mode on the subs tailored to Dolby Atmos.
Manual or automated – your choice: Fine-tune by hand in ADAM Control for free, or let SoundID Reference measure and correct the room.
The new subwoofers use 8″ and 10″ woofers with fibre-reinforced paper cones, Class D amplification and onboard DSP managing crossovers, filtering and EQ. Bass ports shaped with Finite Element Analysis keep low-frequency output clean at high SPL. Connectivity includes AES3 digital input up to 24-bit/96 kHz, an XLR/TRS combo input and a footswitch bypass for bass management.
“Accurate low end is where most rooms fall apart, and it’s exactly where engineers make their most critical decisions,” said Helmuts Bems, Co-founder & CEO of Sonarworks. “Bringing SoundID Reference into ADAM Audio’s Sub PRO means the whole monitoring system – monitors and subwoofers together – is calibrated on the hardware itself. You set it once and simply trust what you hear.”

The Sub8 PRO and Sub10 PRO are available from today, October 8, 2026, through ADAM Audio dealers worldwide.
