The CLA-2×5 line array speakers deliver professional line array performance for bands, DJs, and venues that need focused sound projection without the bulk of larger systems. This pair provides the directional control and even coverage that makes line arrays the go-to choice for live sound reinforcement.
Each speaker combines two 5-inch woofers with a 1 3/8-inch titanium compression driver to deliver clear vocals and full-range sound. The 55 x 25 coverage pattern focuses sound where your audience sits while minimizing spill onto walls and ceilings that can muddy your mix.
At 300 watts peak power per speaker (600 watts total system power), these 16-ohm speakers handle small to mid-size venues with authority. The 65Hz-20kHz frequency response covers everything from bass guitar fundamentals to vocal clarity, while the 97dB sensitivity means they work efficiently with most power amplifiers. The 3kHz crossover point keeps vocals smooth and intelligible.
Mount these speakers on line array frames for front-of-house coverage in clubs, theaters, and outdoor events handling up to 200-300 people. They work equally well as side fills in larger venues or as the main PA for smaller spaces. The adjustable suspension hardware provides 0, 3, 6, 12, and 15-degree angles for precise aiming.
Connect via dual Speakon inputs using standard speaker cables. Each birch plywood cabinet weighs just 22 pounds with side handles for easy transport.
Seismic Audio backs every CLA-2×5 pair with a one-year warranty and ships nationwide.

This pair works well for venues accommodating 200-300 people, including small clubs, theaters, worship spaces, and outdoor events. The line array design provides even coverage across the audience area while minimizing sound reflection off walls and ceilings. For larger venues, consider multiple pairs or stepping up to a larger line array system.
You’ll need standard speaker cables with Speakon connectors to connect from your power amplifier to each speaker. Each CLA-2×5 has dual Speakon inputs for parallel connections or linking multiple speakers. The speakers are passive, so you’ll need a separate power amplifier capable of driving 16-ohm loads.
While the dual 5-inch woofers provide bass response down to 65Hz, adding a subwoofer will give you fuller low-end impact for music with heavy bass content. The CLA-2×5 speakers work well on their own for speech and acoustic music, but electronic music, rock, and hip-hop benefit from subwoofer support below 80Hz.
Line arrays like the CLA-2×5 provide more controlled directional sound than traditional PA speakers. The narrow 25-degree vertical dispersion reduces sound bouncing off ceilings and floors, resulting in clearer sound for your audience. Traditional PA speakers offer wider coverage angles but less precise control over where the sound goes.
While primarily designed for front-of-house use, the CLA-2×5 speakers can work as side-fill monitors due to their directional pattern. However, dedicated floor monitors with wider dispersion angles typically work better for stage monitoring. These excel when you need focused sound projection toward a specific audience area.
