8320A and 8330A Operating Manual

General Description

Genelec 8320A and 8330A are two-way smart active monitors designed for demanding professional applications.

Genelec Smart Active Monitor™ (SAM™) digital signal processing (DSP) built inside each smart active monitor with Genelec Loudspeaker Manager™ (GLM™) software provides unparalleled acoustic quality, ease of use, and high monitoring accuracy even in difficult acoustic environments. The high performance drivers are directly connected to dedicated D Class power amplifiers. System protection is implemented as a part of the SAM signal processing.

The MDE™ (Minimum Diffraction Enclosure™) enclosure is made of die-cast aluminium and shaped to reduce edge diffraction. Combined with the advanced Directivity Control WaveguideTM (DCWTM), this design contributes to the excellent acoustic neutrality.

Delivery Contents

Each monitor is supplied with a mains cable, 5 meter RJ45 cable, and an operating manual.

Connections

Before connecting, switch off the monitors and the signal source. Once all the connections have been made, the monitors can be switched on.

Mains Power

The power switch is located on the back panel (see Figure 2). Connect the monitor to a mains socket having a protective earthed connection. Do not connect to an unearthed mains supply or using an unearthed mains cable. These monitors feature an universal mains voltage and can be connected to any voltage between 100-240 VAC 50-60 Hz.

GLM Network Connection

Up to 30 monitors and subwoofers can be connected to a computer using the GLM Adapter. An RJ45 cable is supplied for this. Start control network cabling from the GLM Adapter to the first monitor. Continue daisy-chaining to all monitors and subwoofers (see Figure 3). No special sequence is necessary.

The analog audio input on both models accepts a balanced male XLR connector.

Digital Audio Input

The 8330A digital audio input (DIGITAL IN) accepts

a male XLR connector carrying an AES/EBU formatted digital audio signal. The digital audio can be routed to the next monitor or subwoofer using an XLR output (DIGITAL OUT). The AES/EBU digital audio subframe A or B is selected using the GLM software.
