Monitoring enclosure Genelec 8340A is designed to offer ultra-precise sound reproduction in the most demanding audio production environments. Technology Leadership Control Waveguide (DCWTM), it guarantees a uniform diffusion of sound, reducing the unwanted reflections and ensuring optimal listening over a wide area. Its housing in cast aluminium, combined with an optimized acoustic design, minimizes distortions and guarantees a faithful signal restitution. With a Maximum SPL of 110 dB and an extended frequency response of 38 Hz at 22 kHz (-6 dB), the 8340A is ideal for recording, mixing and post-production studios requiring detailed and consistent sound reproduction.
Integrating technology Smart Active Monitoring (SAMTM), Genelec 8340A automatically adapts to its acoustic environment via the software Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLMTM). This software makes it possible to precisely calibrate the speaker by adjusting the levels, phase and response in frequency, thus ensuring neutral and reliable listening, even in untreated parts. The algorithm AutoCalTM 2 compensates for acoustic anomalies and optimizes stereo positioning, ensuring constant sound consistency, whether in configuration mono, stereo or immersive. This technology also makes it easy to integrate the 8340A into a multi-premises system, suitable for Dolby Atmos and other surround configurations.
The Genelec 8340A combines power and precision in a compact format, while offering great integration flexibility. Sound amplification of 150 W (graves) and 150 W (acute) ensures sufficient momentum for professional applications. Sound moulded aluminium case with bass-reflex vent guarantees a controlled return of low frequencies, while its support Iso-PodTM optimizes the orientation of the speaker for better acoustic alignment. Whether it's a fixed studio installation or a mobile configuration, the 8340A is a reliable and efficient solution, perfectly suited to the requirements of professional audio monitoring.
