PLACEMENT

Proper placement is essential for getting the ideal, intended response and

imaging from any studio monitor. Of course, not every room and setup is

the same, but these simple steps will ensure that your source material is

being heard as accurately as possible.

1. Left and right: Ensure that the left speaker is placed on the left side, and

the right speaker is placed on the right side. This is important for correct

phase and imaging. The CLA-10A can be used vertically but be aware that

the left speaker and right speaker should be swapped in this case, retain-

ing the tweeters on the outside orientation.

2. Room considerations: Place your monitors away from walls and cor-

ners. Ideally, they should be centered in your room. Because this isn’t al-

ways possible, a good rule of thumb is to keep at least 12 inches of space

between the monitors and the back wall, maintaining a symmetrical dis-

tance from the side walls.

3. Height: Posit your monitors at ear-height from your most comfortable

mixing/listening position to make sure you’re in the proper sweet spot at

all times.

4. Distance and width: From your most comfortable listening position,

create an equilateral triangle from your ears to the monitors, and the

monitors to each other as shown below. Measure the distance between

the tweeter of each speaker, and ensure that your listening position is that

same distance — directly in the center. Finish by rotating each monitor

inward towards your listening position. It’s best to ensure that each mon-

itor has been rotated by the same amount. This may be an old-school

method, but it’s a method of proven science to help any listener hear the

intended stereo image.

ADVANCED ADJUSTMENT

Calibration: A decibel meter (or even a decibel meter app on your phone)

is very helpful while adjusting monitor gain. This is strongly recommended

to ensure that your stereo image between a pair of monitors is accurate.

Note that each monitor needs to be individually calibrated.

1. Set your meter to C-weighted monitoring with slow response.

2. Place the decibel meter at your listening position — right where

your ears go.

3. Turn the monitor gain to 0 on both monitors and power them on.

4. Set your source hardware to Unity.

5. Set your pink noise generator to -20dB.

6. Slowly bring up the left monitor gain until the decibel meter

reads 80dB.

7. Power the left monitor off.

8. Slowly bring up the right monitor gain until the decibel meter

reads 80dB.

9. Power the left monitor back on. You’re done!

NOTE: If you are calibrating multiple pairs, then repeat the

same process for each speaker.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause permanent hear-

ing loss. Individuals vary considerable in susceptibility to noise-induced

hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to

sufficiently intense noise for a period of time. The U.S. Government’s

Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) have specified the

permissible noise level exposures shown in the following chart.

According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits

could result in some hearing loss. To ensure against potentially danger-

ous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all

persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pressure

levels use hearing protectors while the equipment is in operation. Ear

plugs or protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be worn when

operating the equipment in order to prevent permanent hearing loss if ex-

posure is in excess of the limits set forth here.

LIMITED 5 YEAR WARRANTY

AVANTONE CLA-10As are warranted by Avantone Pro to be free from

defects in materials and workmanship for the period of 5 YEARS to the

original purchaser. In the event of such defects, the Avantone Pro product

will be repaired without charge or, at our option, replaced with a new one

if delivered to Avantone Pro prepaid, together with a copy of the sales slip

or other proof of purchase date. The warranty excludes problems due to

normal wear, abuse, shipping damage or failure to use the product in ac-

cordance with the specifications.

All speaker systems are vulnerable to damage from sustained amplifier

clipping. This can be described as a distortion of the signal caused by the

amplifier running out of headroom. Heat will then be generated in the

voice coil of the driver beyond the heat handling capabilities of wire and

glue. At some point the voice coil will burn, causing the speaker to sound

very distorted; eventually the driver will stop working.

All parts and labor are covered under this Limited Warranty. However, if it

is determined by AVANTONE PRO that the voice coil was burned due to

sustained amplifier clipping, we reserve the right to charge the customer

for the cost of the repair, since this is considered abuse.

Avantone Pro shall not be liable for damages based upon inconvenience,

loss of use of the product, loss of time, interrupted operation or com-

mercial loss or any other damages, whether incidental, consequential, or

otherwise. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may have

other rights, which will vary from state to state.

This warranty is not transferable.

REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS

1. Combo TRS/XLR Input: This combo XLR input accepts a BALANCED male XLR plug

as well as a 3-conductor BALANCED TRS 1/4” connection. For unbalanced connections,

please refer to the RCA input only.

2. RCA Input: This input acceps an unbalanced RCA plug.

3. GROUND LIFT Switch: By engaging this switch the pin 1 shield is lifted at the input jack.

This can be used to aid in ground loop control of the incoming analog line signal.

4. Volume: This passive attenuator adjusts the level of the signal coming into the unit..

Rotating the control clockwise reduces attenuation while a counter-clock- wise rotation

increases attenuation. The detented gain positions allow for repeatable settings be-

tween speakers for proper matching.

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, decrease the input level by turning the knob counter-clockwise a few

clicks.

5. VTPC: (Virtual Tissue Paper Control) Adjusts the high frequency driver voice. Range

is+3dBto-20dB. The Full clockwise setting matches the average standard voicing of the

vertical passive monitors and roughly 3 o’clock matches the average standard voicing of

the horizontal passive monitors.

6. POWER Switch: This switch turns the toroidal transformer power on and off. The unit

still has live AC power at the inlet and upstream from the power switch.

7. AC INPUT: The AC inlet accepts standard IEC320 C14 cables. The integrated fuse tray

should have the correct fuse value installed as indicated on the rear panel for the AC volt-

age being applied.

8. VOLTAGE SELECT Switch: There is a switch on the power supply for selecting the

proper AC/MAINS operating voltage for your location. CHECK THIS SETTING BEFORE

APPLYING POWER!

CLA-10A BREAK-IN SUGGESTIONS

Because any new full-range speaker exhibits a certain

amount of “tightness” when first played, you will most like-

ly benefit from a break-in of the CLA-10A if you are going

to be doing critical work. Normally, standard usage of the

speakers over a short period of time is all that is required

before you recognize the tonal changes that occur after

some hours of use. However, if you need to get to work

immediately; then we do have a suggested break-in mode

that will advance the natural time process much quicker.

Here’s the quick version!

Though the CLA-10As do perform solidly right out of the

box, it is beneficial to run them through a burn-in period

before using them in professional mix situations.

Some high-end speaker manufacturers claim that many

speakers need a 100-200 hour break-in period before they

are “normalized,” which most professional engineers do

just to get used to their new monitors. We feel that sim-

ply playing any music with good low frequency content

through them on a loop for 24-72 hours at a medium vol-

ume level can easily do this. Users have reported that this

speeds up the break-in process, and the speakers open up

a bit more than when first powered up.

Whatever process you utilize, rest assured that you have

purchased an amazing tool that will aid in determining the

proper levels and tones of your all-important mixes!

Enjoy and here’s to accurate mixes!

CONNECTING YOUR CLA-10A MONITORS

Before plugging in and powering up your speakers please take a moment

to be certain that the proper AC MAINS operating voltage setting has been

selected on the rear panel.

Set all faders and level controls to minimum on your console/monitors

feed. All other equipment should be powered up before turning on the

CLA-10 Actives so as to avoid loud turn-on spikes and surges. The input

“SYSTEM GAIN” control is set at minimum at the factory so as to avoid an

accidental overload upon initial hookup. This is intended to force the engi-

neer to purposefully set the gain where appropriate and safe in reference

to the monitor send output level from the console. PLACEMENT

When positioning the AVANTONE CLA-10™ on stands or console bridges

it is best to keep them at ear level and slightly angled in towards the engi-

neer. The optimum stereo listening perspective is achieved by keeping the

monitors at an equal distance from each other and to the engineer’s ears.
