Avantone Pro Relaunches Active CLA-10A Limited Edition Studio Reference Monitor

The classic-looking "White Cone" CLA-10 studio monitors were originally launched in 2018, through a collaboration with famous mix engineer Chris Lord-Alge. Intended to create an accurate recreation of an iconic studio monitoring mainstay, the passive version was subsequently followed by its active CLA-10A counterpart. Now, Avantone Pro confirmed a return of this studio monitor as the active CLA-10A Limited Edition in an attractive North American black walnut veneer cabinet.

Picking up where it left off with its CLA-200 Studio Reference Amplifier, a 200W RMS per channel Class A/B affair developed in close collaboration with GRAMMY Award-winning mix engineer Chris Lord-Alge, Avantone Pro now introduced its CLA-400 bigger brother — built the old-school way as a classically-designed Class A/B amplifier to bring about a dynamic, high-output, high-resolution, full-range system designed to be paired with large passive monitors demanding the highest amounts of power.

Having recently made (sound) waves with its passive CLA-10 studio monitors, effectively bringing ‘back’ to market an iconic studio reference monitoring mainstay, affordable high-quality audio products producer Avantone Pro now announced availability of its complimentary CLA-200 Studio Reference Amplifier — a classically-designed Class A/B amplifier, also developed in close collaboration with GRAMMY Award-winning mix engineer Chris Lord-Alge, to whom it not only owes its ‘initials’ but also its very existence.

While many in the audio industry work to establish the ideal target frequency response for audio reproduction on studio monitors, speakers and headphones, others are providing "familiar" listening references that, with all their imperfections, are already familiar to working professionals. That's exactly what affordable high-quality audio products producer Avantone Pro now announced with the introduction of the CLA-10 Nearfield Monitors - which many will instantly recognize.
