Designed for high-fidelity audio recording and playback, the marian DIGITAL AUDIO ELECTRONICS Clara A/D+ XLR is a professional-grade PCIe sound card that delivers pristine sound quality with 32 audio channels in a compact, three-slot PCIe width. It features eight balanced analog XLR I/O (16 channels) and four digital AES/EBU XLR I/O (16 channels), making it an ideal solution for studios and installations requiring high-channel density and uncompromising audio performance.

Equipped with high-end 24-bit/192 kHz converters, an ultraprecise clock, and a powerful BEAST DSP mixer, for latency-free mixing and EQ processing, the Clara A/D+ XLR ensures top-tier sound quality and reliability. Its robust construction makes it a durable and future-proof investment for professional environments. The card comes with a 16-channel analog I/O breakout cable and a 16-channel AES/EBU breakout cable, both equipped with XLR connectors. A breakout cable with two 5-pin DIN MIDI I/O is also included.

Clara A/D+ XLR "+" Edition: Enhanced Connectivity
The "+" version adds Wordclock / Superclock I/O (BNC connectors) and an additional two MIDI I/O via a dedicated expansion card. This add-on connects to the sound card via a ribbon cable, allowing flexible placement inside the case or in a separate PCIe slot.
  • Balanced analog I/O is integrated directly into the motherboard.
  • AES/EBU digital connections are routed via a D-Sub connector, eliminating unnecessary signal conversions for maximum fidelity.
Highest Audio Quality for Analog and Digital Signals
  • With 115 dB (A)SNR and a THD+N of less than 0.001% at -1 dBfs, the Clara A/D+ delivers premium audio quality.
  • A hefty level of +15 dBu provides enough headroom at the inputs and sufficient signal at the outputs for any connected device.
  • AD/DA is 24-bit and 192 kHz throughout, with no restrictions on the number of channels.
Advanced DSP Mixing and Realtime Routing
The BEAST DSP Mixer offers latency-free volume control and routing of all input signals, along with advanced mixing and playback capabilities:
  • Mix up to 64 signals across 8 buses.
  • Route playback signals from any DAW.
  • Record mix sums back into an application.
  • 4-band parametric EQ per channel for precise tonal shaping.
Superior Clocking and Synchronization
  • With less than 1 ns jitter, the Clara A/D+’s internal clock provides superior synchronization, often outperforming external studio clocks. This ensures ultralow jitter performance, making external clocking unnecessary in many setups.
Switchable Samplerate Converter (SRC)
  • For seamless digital integration, software-switchable Sample Rate Converters (SRCs) allow any digital input signal to be used, regardless of sample rate or clock settings, ensuring effortless compatibility with any connected digital device.
Scalable Multi-Card Synchronization
  • Multiple Clara sound cards installed in a single system can be synchronized via TDM SyncBus, appearing as a single unified ASIO device. 
  • This enables direct inter-card audio signal exchange within the BEAST Mixer, supporting up to 32 interconnected audio streams.
Reliable Multi-Client Driver Suite
Marian’s continuously refined driver supports:
  • ASIO 2.2 as well as multichannel WDM audio / WASAPI with the lowest latencies in all software environments.
  • Simultaneous access by multiple applications.

Sturdy, works well
Size: Width 16.5", Fully Adjustable Desk Mount, Style: Single
Been using this for awhile. I move it around a lot and it keeps up. My only complaint is it occasionally loosens so I have to find the tool and retighten it. Mine also came with a piece broken, and I never got any sort of replacement part. That's a bit on me, but it's rather annoying when one of the laptop clips continuously falls off.

Absolutely fabulous products!
Size: Width 14", Adjustable Desk Mount, Style: Dual
The only downfall of this product is that there is no instant up/down adjustment on the arms. Otherwise this mount is outstanding. It is easy to put together, the only items you'll want that aren't in the box are a screwdriver and a wrench. It went up in just a couple of minutes, and it's sturdy and very well made. I like that I can put it flush to a wall because it does not need any room behind it. This is beyond amazing for the inexpensive cost. I would buy it again in a heartbeat. Also adding to the awesomeness is an array of additional arms and accessories for this you can find from Wali to make your setup perfect for you, all at great prices. I've got my office setup complete with three arms and two laptop trays and the whole thing cost less than a single arm I purchased from Amazon Basics. Handy thought regarding the laptop trays is that they're a nice size, and with the catch at the bottom, I've found I like to use it as a literature tray. I drop a book on there and it holds it at a nice angle to read from when transferring or referencing data. The trays do bounce some when typing, but much less than any other type of arm/tray system I've ever used. Highly recommended!

Not as complicated to put together as it seems, and quite sturdy
Size: Width 14", Adjustable Desk Mount, Style: Triple
When I first unpacked this stand, I was initially overwhelmed by the number of parts that were included in the package. I didn’t realize there were extra parts included to offer you two choices for how to mount the stand to your workstation. Once I got that sorted out, I relaxed a bit more and was able to assemble the unit single-handedly and mount two 22” monitors and a laptop to give myself more room on my desk. It was a bit challenging to move the arms to just the right angles and height, but I did get it after a few tries. I used the re-positionable clamp instead of the desk- through grommet mount. It feels very sturdy, and I feel as long as I periodically check the tension and tightness of the bolts, it will hold up everything just fine. I am not thrilled with the cable management clamps that attach to the round center pole, so I’ll probably end up looking for different clamps or even just velcro fasteners to loop around the post. The clamps that snap onto the arms themselves are fine and hold the Displayport and power cords in place well. I thought about dinging this unit a star for the weird center post clamps and also because the black coating on part of the round post is flaking off, but really, I can work with those things/cover up the cosmetic issues. I was super-impressed by the way the hardware was included in labeled, individual plastic compartments. The instructions were pretty good, too, although I would have liked the print to be a little larger - once you hit your forties, you reach for readers or have to get up close and squint to see small print… Overall, I’m pleased with this unit.

Game changer
Size: Width 14", Adjustable Desk Mount, Style: Dual, Size: Width 14", Adjustable Desk Mount, Style: Dual
**update 2026** Okay I've just upgraded this mount so let me update my review. I am keeping 5 stars because for an entry level budget mount it did its job. Here's why I changed: if your desk is not solid wood, the base of the mount is too narrow and will start to sink in. Also, after a few years one of the arm started to sag. I upgraded for a mount double this price so not outrageous but the base is wider and the arms are sturdier. I am still happy I purchased that one because for my budget it did the job so these years and it's better than not having it. Still recommend if your budget is low and you need to save desk space, it's a great starter. If you can wait and save twice this, I suggest you do and skip to the better ones though. **original review 2020** Been using this mount for about 3 months, time to review: It is an absolute game changer! Cheap, easy to assemble and install, feels sturdy. At first my wife was skeptical because she thought it would be a gimmick but it frees up so much space, it brings both monitors to the same eye-level height, the mouse cable never gets stuck under the laptop anymore, and it holds the cables in place so that when she has to run with the laptop they don't fall behind the desk anymore (see picture). All these little details improved her productivity. And just visually it looks much better I think. Laptop: 15" Monitor: 24"

Works fine overall, but... "you get what you pay for"
Size: Width 16.5", Fully Adjustable Desk Mount, Style: Single
Filed under: "you get what you pay for"? I like the price point and FOR THE MOST PART this arm is getting the job done in my home office space *but* a few points... (1) The little "claw" to hold the laptop in place has these little "locks" that are on the under side which... that's OK but they can be hard to see and it just seems like an extra part that can break -- vs. a ratcheting clamp. (2) The tension on every movable part was ALL out of whack when I first installed it. I set the laptop onto the cradle and it basically collapsed -- flipping down as far as it would go. I had to adjust the tension to be significantly higher in order to hold steady -- but NOW it's hard to "fine-tune" because the tension on that joint is so stiff. On the other hand, the main "elbow" joint is easy to adjust *and* holds steady all day, but within seconds of taking my laptop off of the arm, it springs up -- sometimes rather violently. (3) The overall build quality seems a little weak. The main screw to hold the laptop stand in place had a little cap to make it easier to twist it by hand -- but this snapped off during the initial installation. Not a deal-breaker because once it was in place, I didn't expect to move it again BUT it was still disappointing. (4) Not a deal-breaker for me BUT... there's practically no included cable management. Just... be aware of that. Otherwise... instructions were pretty clear vis-à-vis how to install and -- like I said -- it seems to be getting the job done w/r/t/ getting the laptop up off the desk and MOSTLY aligned with my other monitors.
