Genelec 8331 SAM
If you need an exceptionally accurate sound image, a compact housing size and unstressed sound reproduction that extends to low frequencies, the active monitoring loudspeakers of The Ones product family are the perfect solution.
The products are acoustically coaxial and they work as an almost perfect spot radiator, which enables a very short minimum listening distance and a wide listening area. In the speakers of the collection, numerous technical innovations are combined with environmentally friendly manufacturing methods without compromise.
The monitoring loudspeakers of The Ones product family produce a very natural sound image and frequency balance, and because of this, listening fatigue is exceptionally low compared to traditional monitoring loudspeaker systems. Thus, you can work for longer periods of time and you can make faster mixing decisions more reliably. The speakers offer stable directivity control over an exceptionally wide frequency band thanks to the Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW™) rectifier covering the entire front plate of the speaker and the bass elements symmetrically placed behind the front plate. The monitoring speakers of The Ones product family can be used in both vertical and horizontal positions.
The 8331 is the perfect monitoring loudspeaker for critical ultra-near field listening. The very compact, acoustically coaxial speaker, which functions as an almost perfect point radiator, enables a listening distance of only 40 cm at its shortest. The size of the case enables versatile placement possibilities even in small listening environments. The 8331 is the world's smallest coaxial three-way monitor speaker.
The 8331's state-of-the-art acoustic innovations and Genelec Smart Active Monitor (SAM™) technology enable the best possible result even in very challenging acoustic environments. Using Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLM™) software and Autocal™ automatic calibration, based on decades of studio acoustics experience, compensating for adverse room effects is easier than ever before.
