Avantone Pro CLA 10 / Passive Studio Monitor

Now everyone can mix on the
monitors that define “the hitmaker sound”. A tremendous amount of design work and exacting detail have
finally made the “white cone” monitors available to everyone!
Black box. White cone. High-range frequency. It’s not known as the world’s best — it’s known for the
being the world’s best reference — the sound that creates hits.
The Original Drivers for the Original Sound.
Since the “white cone” studio monitor was discontinued, the supply of aftermarket components have
become more and more expensive and less and less available. Avantone Pro has created a near exact
recreation of the original drivers. Using their global resources and decade of experience in driver
construction, they have reproduced the components faithfully, updating the materials to comply with
modern environmental requirements.
The AV10-MHF tweeter dome went through a difficult engineering process to get the exact phenolic resin
doping to match the original performance curve. The AV10-MLF woofer uses custom tooled mechanical
parts that mirror the original. They worked closely with one of the original vendors of the original cone to
get the exact same stiffness and weight. The only difference from the original is that they use a pressed
cone as opposed to a lapped. This allows for tighter matching in every cone they build — meaning this is
the first time matched pairs have been available!

A tremendous amount of attention has been put into ensuring that performance matches that of the original speakers. CLA10 is made from MDF with a real wood veneer. We changed the rear terminal plate to use a better grade of connector. The crossover network uses the same value capacitors - just a better grade of material and rating. The inductors exactly match the original in dc resistance, winding dimensions and value.
