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 dicult acoustic

environments. The high performance drivers are

directly connected to dedicated D Class power

ampliers. System protection is implemented as

a part of the SAM signal processing.

The MDE™ (Minimum Diraction 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.

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.
