While the CLA-Sub is designed to be a perfect match\u003cbr\u003efor the CLA-series of white cone studio monitors, its filter options make it a fantastic sub for any recording\u003cbr\u003estudio or home theatre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CLA-Sub can be configured in either downward-firing or frontward-firing modes to best suit the\u003cbr\u003eacoustics of your mix room. Simply remove and reattach the rubber feet to deploy the configuration that\u003cbr\u003ebest serves your room and your music.\u003cbr\u003e● Front-firing mode provides the cleanest possible reproduction from CLA-Sub, as the woofer\u003cbr\u003edoes not couple with the floor of the room.\u003cbr\u003e● Downward-firing mode deliberately takes advantage of coupling to the room to increase\u003cbr\u003eoutput by +3 dB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CLA-Sub’s repositionable feet employ a special vibration-dampening material that minimizes the\u003cbr\u003emechanical coupling between the CLA-Sub in your room to reduce sympathetic vibrations that can color\u003cbr\u003ethe playback of your mix. No aftermarket acoustic isolation pads required!\u003cbr\u003eExclusive dual-magnet driver for clarity and volume\u003cbr\u003eAt the heart of CLA-Sub is our custom dual-magnet driver, not available in any other speaker. Every\u003cbr\u003eelement of the custom driver was designed to minimize distortion while increasing output volume. Other\u003cbr\u003emanufacturers’ subwoofers will often deliver as much low-end as possible through deliberate distortion\u003cbr\u003eand coloration. This approach can cause signals to be perceived as louder, when they in fact just have\u003cbr\u003emore harmonic content through distortion.\u003cbr\u003eWe find this practice to be at best dishonest, and at worst an insult to your music. We took the opposite\u003cbr\u003eapproach with our custom driver. We did all we could to ensure it delivers clean, clear bass at shockingly\u003cbr\u003ehigh volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst, its stacked dual ferrite magnet design grants CLA-Sub the power to push and pull air with more\u003cbr\u003eefficiency and control than comparable drivers. To avoid harmonics and overtones, we experimented with\u003cbr\u003eseveral cone substrates before settling on a particularly rigid paper that minimizes distortions while still\u003cbr\u003eproviding a quick, snappy transient response. With CLA-Sub, you’ll hear the low end of your tracks with\u003cbr\u003eclarity and honesty.\u003cbr\u003eConfiguration options for the most demanding studios\u003cbr\u003eA sweepable high-cut control lets you dial in your crossover point from 50-180 Hz; the output low-cut filter\u003cbr\u003elets you trim the fat at 80 or 100 Hz for the signal sent to your studio monitors. You also get phase and\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003egain controls. A switchable power-saving standby mode is available, putting CLA-Sub into a power-\u003cbr\u003eefficient sleep mode after 30 minutes of inactivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLocking XLR \/ 1⁄4” TRS combo inputs keep your audio connections tight and secure, even when those\u003cbr\u003e808 kicks are rattling the fillings in your teeth.\u003cbr\u003eCLA-Sub’s operation can be toggled using a footswitch for quick A\/B comparisons of your mixes with and\u003cbr\u003ewithout the sub.\u003cbr\u003eFeatures\u003cbr\u003e● 300 watt 10” studio subwoofer with custom dual-magnet driver\u003cbr\u003e● Front-firing and downward-firing configurations to suit your mix environment\u003cbr\u003e● Exclusive dual-magnet driver with rigid paper cone for maximum volume and minimal\u003cbr\u003edistortion\u003cbr\u003e● Ported enclosure for low-end extension\u003cbr\u003e● Sweepable high-cut control from 50-180 Hz\u003cbr\u003e● 80\/100 Hz low-cut filter for thru output to studio monitors\u003cbr\u003e● No aftermarket acoustic isolation pads required\u003cbr\u003e● Switchable power-saving standby mode\u003cbr\u003e● Footswitch-togglable operation\u003cbr\u003e● Also suitable for home theatre\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Avantone Pro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49250710094061,"sku":"CLA-SUB","price":1899.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0085\/8118\/5613\/files\/y90bvnvj2ovex6z6kx6m.jpg?v=1768403340"},{"product_id":"avantone-pro-av-aw-active-mixcube-pair-white","title":"Avantone Pro AV-AW Active Mixcube (Pair) - White","description":"\u003cp\u003eStudios primarily use 2-way \u0026amp; 3-way larger monitors designed to represent a wide range reference viewpoint at higher listening levels. However, in this newly developing age of High Definition Audio, there is still a need to also hear what your mix will sound like when played back over small “bass-challenged” systems such as televisions, clock radios, computers, car stereos, iPod docking stations, etc. It is important to make mixing judgments based partially on listening to reference monitors that will not impart tonal anomalies caused by crossovers or inferior full range drivers. Particular attention is always paid to the critical mid-range vocal\/guitar\/keyboard areas. This is where having a full-range monitor without a crossover is truly revealing. Ten months of R\u0026amp;D comparative listening \u0026amp; tweaking went into the voicing of the AVANTONE MixCubes. The result is a very smooth sounding, full range upgrade from the original 5C Sound Cubes. Listening tests reveal that the MixCubes have a smooth, more open, transparent top end response with extended bass while maintaining their basic original character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCabinet Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original 5C Sound Cubes™ were made of ½” particleboard covered with a glue-on wood grain contact paper. We chose to use thicker, denser MDF board because of its high rigidity and inherent low-resonance characteristics. We started with a 165mm (6 1\/2\") sealed cube design with radiused edges. We then chose an elegant Polyurethane high gloss “RETRO-CREAM” finish. The originals had either screws or on later models plastic binding posts mounted on a recessed plastic cup. We upgraded to high-end nickel plated, machined solid metal binding posts (Dual banana spacing) mounted on a black anodized ,milled and silk-screened aluminum terminal plate. Next we added a 7mm thick neoprene pad embedded into the base of the cabinet to serve as a skid-resistant acoustic isolator. Additionally, for creative mounting situations, we recessed an industry standard 5\/8”-27 mic stand mount into the base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDriver Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe originals were a basic 5” stamped frame design. We designed a proprietary 5.25” die cast aluminum frame driver\/cone assembly to exceed the performance of the originals. The mounting bezel is then polished for an elegant appearance. The paper cone, chosen for its musical character, is custom designed \u0026amp; crafted using the finest New Zealand pulp with mica fibers added for lighter weight \u0026amp; rigidity. The cloth surround is made in Japan to exacting uniform thickness tolerances. The Top Plate and T-Yoke of driver are made of Sumitomo 1008 low carbon steel enabling the highest modeled flux density in the gap. The magnets are Y- 40 GRADE (MIL-SPEC) yielding a 43oz.

For unbalanced operation with a TS connector the minus signal is automatically grounded.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSystem Gain: This variable control adjusts the sensitivity of the signal that appears at the input. Rotating the control clockwise increases the sensitivity while a counter-clockwise rotation decreases sensitivity. The adjustable gain range is from -30 to +6 dB. A setting of +6 allows a full, unimpeded signal to be sent to the amplifier. The detented gain positions allow for repeatable settings between speakers for proper matching. Please Note… when the signal appearing at the input is too hot, the amplifier can overload causing distortion and possible damage to the speaker. If overload occurs, attenuate (decrease) the input level by turning the knob counter-clockwise a few clicks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn\/Off Switch: This illuminated switch turns the amplifier section on and off.
