Looking for a professional amplifier capable of powering medium to large studio monitors? Check out the Avantone Pro CLA-400 Studio Reference Amplifier, a dynamic, high-output, high-resolution full-range amplification system. Built in the "old school" way, the no-compromise design features high-quality Japanese components, generous VU meters, and a serious toroidal transformer linear power supply. The convection-cooled chassis provides fanless, silent operation, allowing the amplifier to be used in the same room as the monitors.
The CLA-400 boasts a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz (±0.5 dB) with a power output of 360W at 8 ohms and 540W at 4 ohms per channel. The amplifier can also be used in bridged mode, providing 760W into 8 ohms. The rear panel features two XLR inputs, two XLR link outputs, two speakON connectors, and two sets of terminal block connectors. Both the terminal block and speakON connectors feature bridge configurations for flexibility in deployment. The Avantone Pro CLA-400 produces very-low distortion, steady performance under harsh conditions, and a transparent sound, making it well suited for discerning studios.
