Genelec has been dedicated to manufacturing active studio monitor
loudspeakers since its founding in 1978. They were the first in
the industry to develop many of the key technologies in use today:
the Directivity Control Waveguide, the full implementation of the
active loudspeaker with built-in power amplifiers and driver protection
circuits, the integration of full room response tailoring and much
more.
A wide range of monitors cover all applications from traditional
stereo to modern digital surround sound reproduction and latest
digital audio formats. All Genelec monitors, regardless of size,
share the same neutral sound characteristics. From the compact two
way monitors to large format 3 way designs, Genelec offers 20 models
of speakers from $1895 to $100,000 per pair to satisfy the various
needs of audio enthusiasts.
Genelec design philosophy
- Each drive unit in a multiway system is powered by its own amplifier
channel.
- The active electronic crossover unit operates at low signal
levels and is built into the system preceding the power amplifiers.
- The crossover amplitude and phase responses are optimized for
the particular model to achieve highly accurate system performance.
- All systems feature drive unit protection circuitry for safe
operation while maximizing system output sound pressure level.
- All systems are equipped with versatile room response adjustments.
- All models share the same neutral sound characteristics.
- Amplifier and drive units are directly coupled to avoid passive
crossover distortions.
- No losses are generated between amplifier and drive units resulting
in maximum acoustic efficiency.
- Low level active crossovers give stable performance even in
high power applications.
- Drive units are chosen for high sound quality regardless of
their sensitivity differences.
- Superior maximum output vs. size vs. LF-cutoff performance.
