4010A
Active Loudspeaker
General
The bi-amplified Genelec 4010A is an extremely
compact two way active loudspeaker designed for
fixed installations. It contains drivers, power amplifiers, active crossover filters and protection circuitry.
The 4010A is designed for indoor use only, in temperatures between 15 to 35 degrees Celsius and
relative humidity between 20 % and 90 %.
The MDE™ (Minimum Diffraction Enclosure™)
loudspeaker enclosure is made of die-cast aluminium and shaped to reduce edge diffraction. Combined with the advanced Directivity Control Wave-
TM
(DCWTM), this design provides excellent
guide
frequency balance in difficult acoustic environments.
Delivery contents
Each 4010A is supplied with a mains cable, a 3-pin
connector for audio signal, a keyhole type wallmount
and an operating manual.
Connections
Connect the mains cables only after you have completed connecting audio signal cabling.
Audio input is via a 10 kOhm balanced connector. The pin sequence of the connector is shown in
Figure 2.
Connect the signal cable to the 3-pole plug provided with the loudspeaker and secure the connections by tightening the screws on each pole. Push
the plug into the connector on the loudspeaker.
Never connect the 4010A to the loudspeaker
outputs of a power amplifier, integrated amplifier
or receiver.
When all audio connections are completed, connect the loudspeakers to mains with the supplied
mains cables. They will switch on automatically.
ISSTM Autostart
The 4010A is equipped with Intelligent Signal Sens-
TM
(ISSTM) Autostart function, which automatically
ing
turns the amplifier to Standby mode if an input signal has not been detected for approximately 1 hour.
The power consumption in standby mode is typically
less than 0.5 watts. The playback will automatically
resume once an input signal is detected from the
source.
There is a slight delay in the automatic powering
up. If this is undesirable, the ISS
disabled by setting the “ISS DISABLE” switch on
the back panel to “ON” position. In this mode, the
loudspeaker is powered on and off using the power
switch on the back panel.
Sensitivity control
The input sensitivity (playback level) of the 4010A
has two alternative settings, normal and -10 dB. The
normal setting is factory default and the lower, -10
dB setting can be selected by turning the “SENSITIVITY -10 dB” switch on the back panel to “ON”.
The output levels are 100 dB @ -6dBu and 90
dB @ -6 dBu respectively. Choose the setting that
gives the desired playback level and good resolution of the volume control.
