Etude ETLA Debut With SNA And ClipAudio At North West Audio Show 2026
ETUDE TRI-LINEAR ARRAY LOUDSPEAKER TO DEBUT WITH SUPER NATURAL AUDIO AND CLIPAUDIO AT NWAS 2026
Visitors to North West Audio Show 2026 will be able to hear the new Etude Tri-Linear Array (ETLA) loudspeaker from CML Music, making its debut at the event.
The floorstanding sealed-box design has been developed as a high-sensitivity loudspeaker intended for use in domestic listening rooms and is voiced for boundary placement.
ETUDE ETLA LOUDSPEAKERS
The ETLA stands 750mm tall and features an angled baffle designed to align the drive units with a seated listener. It offers a claimed sensitivity of up to 99dB/W and an 8-ohm nominal impedance, making it suitable for use with low-powered valve amplification. User-adjustable treble output and presence settings are available via solderless resistor connections on the rear input panel. Pricing starts at £3,000 per pair in a satin crackle finish, with additional finish options available. More info here in our launch news.
SUPER NATURAL AUDIO 300B AMPLIFICATION IN THE SYSTEM
The ETLA loudspeakers will be partnered with electronics from Super Natural Audio (SNA). Demonstrations will include the company’s valve DAC, featuring valve-based input, output and rectification stages, alongside its 300B single-ended triode integrated amplifier, which delivers 8 watts per channel.
The system will also include an SNA valve preamplifier and an EAR-Yoshino 834 phono stage, providing both digital and analogue playback options throughout the demonstrations.
CLIPAUDIO DOLOMITE TURNTABLE PROVIDES ANALOGUE SOURCE
Analogue replay at Cranage 2026 will come from the Clipaudio Dolomite turntable and Nine-Wave tonearm. The Dolomite is a belt-drive design with a separate power supply and speed controller, while the Nine-Wave tonearm uses a curved titanium arm tube that differs from conventional tonearm geometry.
For the show, the turntable will be fitted with an Ortofon Cadenza Bronze cartridge. Visitors will also be able to see the clear acrylic version of the deck, known as the Dolomite Crystal.
