Genelec 8030C 5″ Powered Studio Monitor – Dark Grey

Powered Studio Monitor That Hits It

A consistent best-seller, the 8030C studio monitor sits in the perfect sweet spot of big monitor performance and small footprint. It also offers precise imaging and staggering detail, but can go louder and lower than its smaller siblings – making it the perfect choice for slightly larger spaces.

Because of the trademark rounded cabinet design,  the 8030C delivers uncoloured reference performance both on and off axis. Additionally,  rear panel room compensation switches let you optimize the 8030C for your individual room acoustics. All this helps you produce mixes that translate beautifully to other rooms and systems.

Room Response Compensation

All Genelec loudspeaker systems feature room response adjustments to compensate for the room influences and retrieve a flat frequency response at the listening position.

Built-In Power Management

Genelec's ISS™ circuitry tracks the signal input of the loudspeaker and detects if it is in use. If the ISS circuit does not find any audio on the input for a period of time, it sets the loudspeaker to a low-power sleep state and the loudspeaker will consume less than 0.5 watts. When an input signal is detected, the loudspeaker immediately turns itself on.

Improved Sound Image Definition

Genelec designed a loudspeaker stand called Iso-Pod™ - Isolation Positioner/Decoupler that is attached to the aluminium enclosure. It has four shallow feet and it is made from special lossy rubber-like material. It is firmly attached to the enclosure so that it can be slid along the curved bottom or side surface to allow for a ±15° tilt of the loudspeaker.
