GENELEC ACTIVE LOUDSPEAKERS - Studio Monitors

Genelec have been producing some of the most popular studio monitors since 1978, and now have a range of monitor loudspeakers and accessories that have been designed for AV installation, home cinema, professional studio. This selection includes monitors of differing power and dimensions, along with the ability for some to be network controlled.

8000 Series

Genelec 8000 Series monitors, are two-way designs, each housed in Genelec's 'Minimum Diffraction Enclosure', an advanced, die-cast aluminium design, 'built for performance'. The 'sturdy, vibration-free' structure ensures diffraction-free sound reproduction even at highest output levels'. Other features include dedicated amplifiers for each driver, manual room-response control to help compensate for acoustic influences, and on-board overload protection.


8010A - 25/25watts, 76mm LF driver

A two-way bi-amplified active monitor designed and manufactured for professional applications such as near-field monitoring, portable recording, and OB vans, but equally suited to surround sound and multimedia systems. Both the 76mm bass driver and the 19mm, metal-domed, high-frequency driver have their own 25 watt amplifier to provide a long term RMS output of over 91dB SPL and a maximum peak output greater than 105dB. A switch on the back panel enables Genelec's 'Intelligent Signal Sensing' circuitry which switches the monitor to standby mode to save energy when no audio input is detected.

Tone controls offer the user flexibility of frequency output with a three step 'Bass Tilt' control to reduce low frequency response by -2dB, -4dB, or -6dB. 'Desktop' settings reduce low frequencies by 4dB at 200Hz, to compensate for the boost occurred when positioned on a table or similar surface. The front panel has a power indicator LED, on the rear there is an IEC power inlet and AC mains power switch. Accessories available are a floor stand (speaker vertical or horizontal using IsoPod), stand plate (necessary for use with floor stand) and soft carrying bag for two 8010A speakers.

Available in dark grey or white finish.


8020D - 50/50watts, 105mm LF driver

SAM Series - The Ones

The 'Ones' are three-way, coaxial, active monitors, designed to cater for most professional studio environments including smaller studios where space is at a premium, high precision is required, and uneven sound colouration and frequency response need to be combated.

Manufactured using recycled aluminium, each compact monitor has a pair of concealed, oval, low-frequency drivers radiating through slots located on both ends of the enclosure, positioned to be acoustically coaxial with the mid-frequency and high-frequency drivers. This ensures acoustic axes are aligned, resulting in a more accurate point-source radiator. Additionally, using SAM (Smart Active Monitor) technology along with the Genelec GLM software application, which may be downloaded without charge, this range of monitors can be calibrated to ensure spectral balance is achieved for accurate listening.

Genelec SAM series monitor systems can be used with Genelec GLM Loudspeaker Manager kit (76-1548) for full operation.


8331A SAM - 72/36/36watts, coaxial

Available in black, dark grey, raw aluminium, and white versions, the 8331A SAM active, three-way monitor has dual 130 x 65mm, oval, low-frequency drivers, 90mm mid-range cone driver coaxial with a 19mm high-frequency metal dome. These drivers are fed by three integrated amplifiers, with 72W dedicated to the LF units, 36W to the MF, and 36W to the HF. A maximum, short-term output of 104dB SPL is complimented by a maximum long-term RMS output of 99dB SPL, and 0dB self-generated noise (at one metre, A-weighted). 8331A SAM monitor has a frequency response of 45Hz to 37kHz(-6dB) and 58Hz to 20kHz. +/-1.5dB. ISS (Intelligent Signal Sensing) senses when the loudspeaker has not received any audio input for a period of one hour, and switches the loudspeaker into sleep mode, consuming less than 0.5W. When an input signal is detected the monitor resumes normal operation and power consumption.

The front baffle has a green power LED; the IEC power inlet for the AC supply and latching power button are on the rear, along with audio and digital connectivity and switching. Dual seven-stage miniature (DIP) switches on the rear give access to functions such as 'Treble Tilt', to attenuate any frequencies above 5kHz by +2dB, -2dB, or -4dB in order to compensate for excessively bright or dull system setup and 'Bass Tilt' levels to attenuate frequencies below 800Hz at -2dB, -4dB, or -6dB, compensating for near-wall positioning and/or room brightness. ISS can be deactivated and DIP switches give access to LED on/off, bass roll-off (-2/-4dB, -6dB when both switches active), desktop reflection compensation to attenuate bass frequencies by 4dB at around 160Hz and a 'stored' setting. If activated, the 'stored' switch enables the monitor to recall the settings used in the GLM 3.0 calibration software, otherwise the monitor uses the adjustments set on the monitor. Switches for Digital A and B select the required digital audio channel (A or B), if both are selected channels A and B are summed and attenuated by 6dB to avoid overload. The user can reduce the monitor output by -10dB or -20dB (-30dB if both selected) by way of DIP switches. Two network connections are available to connect and link to a GLM network, a single balanced 3-pin XLR input is shared for digital in (AES/EBU) and analogue audio in. A single 3-pin XLR output can be used as a digital 'thru' port for AES/EBU signals.

GLM Loudspeaker Management Kit

Comprising of GLM network adapter, Genelec 8300A calibration microphone, microphone holder (with both 5/8-inch and 3/8-inch threads) and quick connection guide, this kit is used to link the Genelec GLM software (free to download) via the network adapter to 'The Ones' series of monitors and compatible SAM sub-woofers. Once connected, AutoCal calibration may be implemented to adjust monitor levels, frequency responses, time alignment, phase adjustment and determine unlimited setup files for quick recall.

The rear face of the desktop GLM network adaptor has a USB 2.0 type B connector that can be used to power the unit via a compatible computer or mains adapter. A yellow LED shows power on status. A 3.5mm jack provides connectivity to the 9310A volume controller; a second 3.5mm jack allows for the connection of the included 8300A calibration microphone. Two RJ45 network connections link to compatible monitors and are complete with terminator (the latter being optional).


9101B Remote Controller

Available in both white and black finishes, 9101B wireless volume controller offers volume, mute, and group preset navigation control of SAM studio monitors and subwoofers via the optional 8300-601 GLM network adapter kit. Also compatible with F One and F Two subwoofers. Operation has a maximum distance of 30m but does not require line of sight.


9320A SAM Reference Controller

9320A Reference Controller is a smart monitoring device designed as a solution to integrating all of the user's key monitoring technologies. The hardware enables management of Genelec SAM loudspeakers in setups from stereo to immersive. The tactile monitor controller offers haptic feedback to allow for faster workflow without the need the graphical interface of GLM. Stereo and stereo-with-subwoofer monitoring systems can be directly connected to the 9320A using the analogue and AES/EBU input/output connections, whilst USB connection can be used to monitor a stereo audio input from a computer. The headphone output is compatible with impedances ranging from 16-600 ohms, with a THD+N of less than -110 dB, and dynamic range of 126dB. Continuous A, C and Z weighted SPL monitoring, which is displayed on the display of the 9320A, allows visual assessment of listening safety. SPL is sampled using the included reference microphone for in-room audio and calculated using headphone sensitivity data for the headphone audio. The audio engineer sound exposure dose is logged, and hearing health exposure dose alarms can be set.

Included accessories: 1x Genelec factory-calibrated reference microphone, 1x microphone clip, 1x 2m USB-C to USB-C cable.
