The CLA-2×5 is built for bands, DJs, and venues that need professional line array coverage without the complexity of large-format systems. This compact passive speaker delivers focused sound reinforcement for small to mid-size venues where traditional point-source speakers fall short.
Two 5″ woofers paired with a 1 3/8″ titanium compression driver provide clear vocal reproduction and punchy mid-bass response. The 55 x 25 coverage pattern creates the wide horizontal dispersion that makes line arrays effective for audience coverage, while the narrow vertical pattern reduces unwanted reflections from floors and ceilings.
At 150 watts RMS and 300 watts peak power handling, each CLA-2×5 can drive venues up to 150 people when used as a pair. The 16-ohm impedance allows for flexible system configurations, and the 97 dB sensitivity ensures efficient operation with most power amplifiers. The birch plywood construction keeps weight at just 22 pounds per cabinet while maintaining durability for regular transport.
These speakers work well as front-of-house PA for small venues, side-fill for larger stages, or delay towers for outdoor events. The aluminum suspension hardware allows mounting at 0, 3, 6, 12, and 15-degree angles to optimize coverage patterns. Multiple units can be arrayed vertically for increased output and improved pattern control.
Connect via dual Speakon inputs to any external power amplifier. Standard speaker cables are all that’s needed for setup. Each CLA-2×5 ships ready to mount with included suspension hardware and comes backed by Seismic Audio’s one-year warranty.

A pair of CLA-2×5 speakers can effectively cover venues up to 150 people when properly powered and positioned. For larger crowds, consider adding subwoofers or using multiple pairs in an array configuration. The 55-degree horizontal coverage ensures good audience dispersion in smaller rooms.
Each CLA-2×5 handles 150 watts RMS and 300 watts peak at 16 ohms impedance. A quality amplifier rated for 150-200 watts per channel at 16 ohms will drive these speakers effectively. Higher-powered amplifiers can be used but watch your gain levels to avoid damaging the drivers.
The CLA-2×5 covers down to 65Hz, which provides adequate bass response for vocals and most instruments, but live bands typically benefit from adding a subwoofer for full-range coverage. The dual 5″ woofers handle mid-bass well but won’t deliver the deep low-end that modern music demands.
You’ll need standard Speakon-to-Speakon speaker cables to connect from your amplifier to each CLA-2×5. The dual Speakon inputs allow for daisy-chaining multiple speakers or bi-amping configurations. No special multi-pin cables are required for basic operation.
The included aluminum suspension hardware allows angling at 0, 3, 6, 12, and 15 degrees for proper array geometry. Multiple units can be flown vertically using compatible line array frames or rigging points. The compact 7.5″ height makes them ideal for venues with lower ceiling constraints.
