The Complete Auratone Package
Ask any Sweetwater engineer about Auratone 5C Super Sound Cubes. In the 1970s and 1980s, these unassuming little speakers were a fixture on every professional studio console's meter bridge, giving engineers, producers, and artists a sorely needed reality check in those days of high-decibel playbacks on ginormous main monitors. Now, 5C Super Sound Cubes are back and better than ever, thanks to the Auratone A2-30 Studio Reference Amplifier, a purpose-built stereo amp designed to optimally power Sound Cubes.

The legendary Auratone 5C Super Sound Cube
The new 5C (like the original) features a 4.5-inch, full-range driver made from high-quality materials. Built-in Auratone's Nashville shop, the cabinet features a sleek, modern-looking mahogany finish. Their ruggedness, flat response, impressive power handling, and portability have made Auratone 5C an industry-standard "real-world" reference monitor for music recording, broadcasting, and television/motion picture post.
The A2-30 Stereo Power Amp
Like the Super Sound Cubes, the A2-30 is a serious professional tool that's lean and mean, with nothing but a power switch, a status LED, and pro connectivity. The amp even has the same footprint as the Sound Cubes, so it looks great sitting on your desk or meter bridge. For decades, Auratones have been the gold standard for brutal honesty in monitoring, making it glaringly obvious when aspects of your mix aren’t sitting right. Sweetwater's advice: Power your 5C Super Sound Cubes with the Auratone A2-30 Studio Reference Amplifier.
