Genelec 8010A Active Studio Monitor Single Unit Dark Grey

The Genelec 8010A is a compact, two-way active studio monitor designed for professional audio monitoring in space-constrained environments. As the smallest model in Genelec's 8000 series, it provides accurate sound reproduction for music production, broadcast, and post-production work. Its active design means each driver has a dedicated amplifier, eliminating the need for external amplification and ensuring optimal performance from the integrated components. The monitor features a 3-inch woofer and a 0.75-inch metal dome tweeter, each powered by a 25W Class D amplifier for a total system power of 50W. This bi-amplified configuration delivers a frequency response of 67Hz to 25kHz (-6dB) with an accuracy of ±2.5dB between 74Hz and 20kHz. The ported enclosure design enhances low-frequency extension, while the integrated Iso-Pod decoupling stand provides isolation from surfaces and allows for precise aiming of the high-frequency driver. Connectivity is via a single balanced XLR analogue input, making it compatible with most professional audio interfaces and mixing consoles. This monitor is particularly well-suited for mobile producers, project studio owners, and professionals working in broadcast vehicles or temporary setups. Its small footprint (195mm high, 121mm wide, 115mm deep) and modest weight (1.5kg) make it highly portable, allowing users to maintain a consistent reference point across different working locations. The neutral, uncoloured sound profile ensures mixes translate reliably to other playback systems, addressing the common challenge of mixes that don't work on laptop speakers or consumer headphones.
