The new Genelec 1038CF is a three-way active monitoring system including loudspeaker drivers, slim speaker enclosure, multiple power amplifiers and active, low signal level crossovers. Designed for medium sized control rooms this system is ideal for music recording studios, project studios, film and video post-production and broadcast monitoring. The 1038CF is designed to perform well as a free-standing monitor, on-wall or flush mounted into the control room wall. The system should be ideally used in combination with a subwoofer for either stereo or multichannel applications. The unique Directivity Control Waveguide ™ (DCW ™) Technology used provides excellent stereo imaging and frequency balance even in difficult acoustic environments. Versatile crossover controls allow for precise matching of the speaker system to different acoustic conditions. The system can be used both in vertical and horizontal orientation by simply rotating the DCW unit. The system is very easy to use as only mains power and input signal are needed. All drivers are magnetically shielded as standard to minimize stray magnetic field. A rack mount adapter is available so that the amplifier unit can be positioned separately from the enclosure for flush- or on-wall mounting applications. This allows for better & easier amplifier cooling and easier access to the Tone Control DIP switches during in-room system calibration.Genelec DCW™ Technology The revolutionary Directivity Control Waveguide™ (DCW™) technology greatly improves the performance of a direct radiating multi-way loudspeaker.
The DCW™ waveguide is designed to match the frequency response and directivity characteristics of the drivers in the loudspeaker. This results in an excellent flatness of the overall frequency response for on and off-axis listening positions.
The improved directivity control reduces the reflected sound energy at the listening position. This improves the stereo and sound stage imaging and ensures very small sensitivity to varying control room acoustics, actually much smaller sensitivity than with any conventional direct radiator design.
The DCW™ technology also improves the drive unit sensitivity even up to +6 dB, and therefore increases the maximum sound pressure level as well as decreases drivers and system distortion.
DCW™ Technology key features:
Flat on and off-axis response for wider usable listening area
Increased direct-to-reflected sound ratio for reduced control room coloration
Improved stereo and sound stage imaging
Increased driver efficiency
Increased system Sound Pressure Level capacity
Decreased drive unit distortion
Reduced cabinet edge diffract

I would like to thank VK for the wonderful sales assistance, service and prices. This was my first purchase with you and it won't be my last. I only wish I'd discovered you years ago!

I had two Grammy wins this year - Ray LaMontagne & Carolina Chocolate Drops. Both made with help from Vintage King!

In almost 20 years in Pro audio buying, never did I receive a unit so well packed and exactly as described. Works flawlessly. The whole process has been so smooth. I will never hesitate to do business with you guys in the future and will recommend you to everyone I know.

This was my first experience buying something from Vintage King (although I surf the "used" categories on the website frequently!), and, despite being on the other side of the world, I had absolutely no trouble and everything went very smoothly.

You guys have excellent customer service and I am excited about the next upgrade I complete on my fifth recording facility. I've been in the studio business for forty plus years. The salesman I worked with at Vintage King was the best of the best. You all rock!

My experience with Vintage King was excellent. The order was here fast considering it was out of stock. The sales person had SKB send it to me directly and I couldn't have been more pleased.

From the minute I placed my order I was kept well-informed through each step in your process. Even though I was buying a comparatively modest piece of gear, your attention to detail made me feel like I was purchasing a six-figure mixing desk.
