From its inception, Adamson has prioritized in-house manufacturing, ensuring meticulous control over the design and production of components such as transducers, cabinets, and onboard electronics. This commitment to quality has been bolstered by significant investments, including a $4 million, 16,800-square-foot electronics production facility equipped with advanced technologies like a high-speed PCB assembly line and automated optical inspection systems.

Throughout its history, Adamson has introduced several groundbreaking products. Notable among these are the MH225, which was the first commercial loudspeaker system to use an acoustic waveguide, and the Y-Axis line array featuring the Co-Linear Drive Module. The company's innovative use of Kevlar cones and the development of the SD-21 21-inch Kevlar cone driver further exemplify its dedication to advancing loudspeaker technology.

In recent years, Adamson has continued to push the boundaries of audio engineering. In January 2024, the company launched the VGt line array system, the inaugural product of the Vergence Group. The VGt system integrates eight transducers, onboard class-D amplification, redundant and daisy-chainable Milan AVB, and comprehensive DSP into a compact enclosure. It also features Adamson's patented mid-range technology and the Autolock rigging system, allowing for quick and safe setup by a single technician.

Building upon the VGt's success, Adamson introduced the VGs powered subwoofer in November 2024. This subwoofer combines the company's E-Series E119 low-frequency unit with a custom-designed, in-house manufactured 6 kW Class-D amplifier and onboard DSP. The VGs is capable of reproducing frequencies from 29 to 100 Hz and delivers a peak output of 139 dB. It also offers flexible connectivity options, including analog audio and redundant, daisy-chainable Milan AVB, all manageable via Adamson's ArrayIntelligence software.
