Avantone CLA 10 A

Greetings TR's and season greetings

I impulsed buy recently on a set of the Chris Lord Alge / Avantone active NS10s and have mixed a handful of tracks on them to date.

First impressions out of the box was that they are so bright it actually hurts but with the variable tissue paper control (more eq that some consoles offer) well once you set them up correctly or should I say to your liking mixing is an absolute no brainer. They sound spot on, or at least spot on to ones memory of how they should sound.

Also worth a mention is that they also don't fatigue your ears as much as the original NS10s and for some reason you immediately know the sound and feel confident mixing right from get go .

Anyway hope everyone is going ok in these shitty times, its not often these days you get surprised by a bit of gear, so thumbs up to CLA and Avantone. I wonder what their headphones are like ?

I thought the self powered model had a HF attenuation switch on the back?

The Attenuator is a pot and has a huge range of adjusment... Its called variable tissue paper control, as far as tweeter adjustment on powered monitors goes the VTPC offers far more wide ranging adjustment than what is normally heard in powered monitor HF set ups .. it can add +6db or down -30db @1.8khz .... as I said more range than most consoles treble adjustment , takes a little to set up right but once done ... superb
