Matched pair of vintage Auratone 5C Super Sound Cubes, original wooden cabinets, manufactured in the 1970s–1980s.
These are legendary reference monitors used in professional studios worldwide. Designed to be deliberately neutral and unforgiving, they are ideal for checking balance, midrange clarity, and mix translation. The long-standing industry rule applies: if it sounds good on Auratones, it will sound good anywhere.
Why They’re Special
- Industry-standard mono reference speakers
- Extremely honest, midrange-focused sound
- Ideal for translation and balance checks
- Widely used in professional studios for decades
- Original wooden cabinets (not later MDF versions)
Condition
- Very good vintage condition for their age
- One cabinet has a small chip, purely cosmetic, which adds vintage character
- Otherwise clean cabinets with light, age-appropriate wear
- Fully functional and sounding exactly as intended
Additional Info
- Passive speakers (external amplifier required)
- Ideal for professional studios, producers, or collectors
- Original wooden versions are increasingly hard to find
