Presentation
The Avantone Mix Cubes mini passives, give you the possibility to listen to your mixes on systems limited in the low frequencies, such as a computer, a television, a car radio or an iPod station. This allows you to realize the rendering of your mix, on any support.
It is important to remain very attentive on the mid-frequencies of the vocals/guitar/keyboard. This is where a wide-band listening without filtering becomes very useful.
The Auratone MixCubes measure 6 inches in height, and each contain a 5-inch speaker, offering excellent sound reproduction, for a reference mix.
The Avantone Pro Mixcubes bring this very soft sound, with the benefit of wide-band reproduction, compared to the original 5C Sound Cubes. Listening tests reveal that the MixCubes offer a smooth, more open, transparent response in the high end with an extended bass response, while retaining their initial basic character.
What struck the Sonovente technicians when listening was the purity of the Avantone sound in terms of distortion, compared to the Auratones they had previously used or, in fact, compared to any affordable speaker. This is particularly noticeable in the low frequencies, and this characteristic combined with the transient speed, the reinforced paper cone, make the MixCubes extremely revealing of any distortion.
When placing the Avantone MixCubes on stands or consoles, it is best to keep them at ear height and slightly tilted towards the sound engineer. Since they are shielded, they can be placed close to a screen or TV without causing problems. Microphone stand-compatible threads on the bottom of the speakers will also allow you to create creative positioning options in unusual studio listening situations.
