Avantone CLA100 Class A/B Studio Power Amplifier Overview
Avantone CLA100 Class A/B Studio Power Amplifier
For users of lower-power threshold passive studio monitors that still demand classic studio reference tonality, the CLA100 is what you’ve been waiting for.
The CLA100 delivers 100WRMS of flawless Class AB amplification with a super low noise threshold of just 1% at 8 Ohms. Perfect for critical mixing purposes, the CLA100’s flat response of +/-0.25dB from 20Hz to 30kHz even at full pelt provides impressive sonics and overall a powerfully detailed stereo image.
Under the hood, the CLA100 employs a MOSFET amp design, an oversized toroidal transformer, and high-end Japanese filter caps to ensure a solid signal chain.
In lieu of a fan, a specially chosen convection cooling system has been implemented for temperature control ensuring the amplifier operates with minimal noise, allowing it to be used in any studio room without causing interference.
