Avantone CLA-10A (Pair)
PAIR OF 7″ 400W ACTIVE STUDIO MONITORS
Avantone Pro, together with the mixing expertise of the legendary Chris Lord Alge, has designed the most faithful reproduction of the world’s most iconic studio monitor. Now everyone can mix on the monitors they call ‘the hitmaker sound’. An enormous amount of design work and precision detailing have finally made white-cone monitors available to everyone. And now the world has finally got what it always asked for: an active version: the CLA-10A. Black box. White cone. Wide frequency range. It’s not known as the best in the world – it’s known as the world’s best reference – the sound that creates success.
Since production of the “white cone” studio monitor was discontinued, the supply of aftermarket components has become increasingly expensive and less available. Avantone Pro has created an almost identical reproduction of the original drivers. Using global resources and decades of experience in building drivers, it has faithfully reproduced the components, updating the materials to meet modern environmental requirements.
The AV10-MHF tweeter dome underwent a difficult design process to achieve the exact dosage of phenolic resin to match the original performance curve. The AV10-MLF woofer uses custom mechanical parts that mirror the original. Avantone worked closely with one of the original cone’s suppliers to achieve the same rigidity and weight. The only difference to the original is that a pressed cone is used instead of a lapped cone. This allows for a more precise matching of each cone built, meaning that this is the first time that matched speaker pairs are available.
