Nearfield Laurin / AVA

AVA Monitor

The AVA Monitor brings the horn-loading principle into a compact nearfield format. Designed for listeners who want the AVA sound in smaller rooms or as a studio monitor. A 1-inch compression driver with a short horn handles midrange and high frequencies. The 6.5-inch mid-bass driver in a sealed enclosure delivers tight, impulse-accurate bass. The sealed design ensures precise time alignment in the nearfield. With 91 dB sensitivity, the Monitor performs excellently even with modest amplifiers. Enclosure crafted from birch plywood. This model is currently in development – availability and price on request.

System note

Horn principle in a smaller format
