SYSTEM
The Genelec 1038AC is a dedicated center channel speaker for three channel (LCR) and Surround systems. Its slim and compact cabinet has been designed for optimum placement in the limited space above, below or in verical orientation, on either side of a video monitor or screen.
As its name suggests, the Genelec 1038AC is best suited for use as a center channel speaker with a pair of standard Genelec 1038A active monitors. The 1038AC employs the same mid and treble drivers and Directivity Control Waveguide as a standard 1038A and the amplifier unit is also the same to ensure complete tonal compatibility.
Genelec 1038AC is a three-way active monitoring system including magnetically shielded loudspeaker drivers, speaker enclosure, multiple power amplifiers and active, low signal level crossovers. Although designed for film and video post-produc- tion and medium sized control rooms this system is also ideal for project studios and broadcast monitoring. DVD mastering is also well tailored for where broad bandwidth, high SPL's and extended low frequency response are essential.
The separate amplifier unit is built into a rack mount chassis for easy fitting into a standard 19" equipment rack. A 10 meter connecting cable set to go between the amplifier and speaker is standard. The 1038AC is rec-
ommended to be flush mounted into the control room wall, but it can also be used as a free-stand- ing monitor.
The unique Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW) Technology provides excellent stereo imaging and frequency balance even in difficult acoustic environments. The fast acting, low distortion amplifiers are capable of driving the stereo system to peak output levels in excess of 124 dB SPL at 2 m with program signals. Versatile crossover controls allow for precise matching of the speaker system to different acoustic conditions. The system can be used both in vertical and horizontal orientations by simply rotating the DCW unit.
