I hope not too late for this - the Adam A7's are an excellent monitor for a
reasonable price - they are one of those products that sets a price/quality
standard. (of course dynaudio and genelec also have some excellent products)
the Adam's are wonderfully clear with excellent spatial imaging.
re 40Hz - go by your ears on the speakers to hear if the bass is 'flabby'
(indistinct) or not, in reality your room is unlikely to be good at low
frequencies. But I find my Adam's maintain quality to as low as i can
reasonably expect.
