The choice of demanding professionals for whom power and flexibility go hand-in-hand, the 8330A offers a little more SPL and LF extension than its smaller 8320A sibling. Providing transparent and truthful reproduction, the 8330A’s wide uncolored sweet spot means you are always in a position to make accurate, reliable mix decisions. As a Smart Active Monitor, the 8330A integrates closely with Genelec's GLM software via which it can be configured and calibrated for your listening environment, compensating for detrimental room influences to create a truly optimized monitoring solution from mono to immersive. So if you need to work in challenging acoustic spaces, the 8330A is your compact but clever monitoring companion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 id=\"toc_0\"\u003eNETWORKED SMART ACTIVE MONITOR (SAM) SYSTEM\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eGenelec SAM Systems are today’s most advanced and flexible monitoring solutions. They are an indispensable tool for audio professionals, as they automatically adapt to the acoustic environment and correct for level, delay and room anomalies. SAM Systems are controlled using Genelec's proprietary Loudspeaker Manager (GLM) network and software, enabling you to build a highly flexible and reliable monitoring system.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eGLM is a highly intuitive and powerful monitor control networking system that manages connectivity to all SAM studio monitors and subwoofers on the network. GLM software features adjustment of level, distance delay and flexible room response compensation equalization with Genelec's state-of-the-art, highly robust AutoCal 2 algorithm automated calibration system. All parameters and settings are stored in system setup files or saved in each individual monitor or subwoofer, if the GLM network needs to be disconnected.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAlso, all acoustical features of SAM Systems can be optimized and tailored for different working styles or client demands. Additionally, even if the monitors or the production projects move between rooms, you can expect SAM technology to provide the highest consistency in monitoring, providing neutral soundstage imaging with low distortion – in each environment.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_1\"\u003eDIRECTIVITY CONTROL WAVEGUIDE (DCW)\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe DCW technology shapes the emitted wavefront in a controlled way, allowing predictable tailoring of the directivity (dispersion) pattern. To make the directivity uniform and smooth, the goal is to limit the radiation angle so that the stray radiation is reduced. It results in excellent flatness of the overall frequency response as well as uniform power response. This minimizes early reflections and provides a wide and controlled listening area achieving accurate sound reproduction on and off-axis. Minimized early reflections and controlled, constant directivity have another important advantage: the frequency balance of the room reverberation field is essentially the same as the direct field from the monitors. As a consequence, the monitoring system's performance is less dependent on room acoustic characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_2\"\u003eINTELLIGENT SIGNAL SENSING (ISS)\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIntelligent Signal Sensing, ISS circuitry tracks the signal input of the loudspeaker and detects if it is in use. If the ISS circuit does not find any audio on the input for a period of time, it sets the loudspeaker to a low-power sleep state and the loudspeaker will consume less than 0.5 watts. When an input signal is detected, the loudspeaker immediately turns itself on.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_3\"\u003eMINIMUM DIFFRACTION ENCLOSURE (MDE)\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIn order to improve the flatness of the frequency response and the power response of free standing loudspeaker systems, Genelec have designed a highly innovative enclosure optimized to match the properties of the monitor drivers, featuring rounded edges, and gently curved front and sides. In addition to achieving an unsurpassed flatness of the frequency response, the enclosure having minimum diffractions yields superb sound stage imaging qualities.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_4\"\u003eVIBRATION DECOUPLING ISO-POD\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eTo solve the problems attendant to placing speakers directly on a desktop or a console meter bride, Genelec developed an efficient and very practical solution -  the Iso-Pod (Isolation Positioner\/Decoupler) It is attached to the speaker's aluminum enclosure and has four shallow feet and it is made from special lossy rubber-like material. It is firmly attached to the enclosure so that it can be slid along the curved bottom or side surface to allow for a ±15° tilt of the loudspeaker. The loudspeakers’ acoustical axis can then be pointed precisely towards the listener by adjusting the enclosure’s inclination with the Iso-Pod. The vibration isolation and damping properties reduce midrange coloration caused by unwanted vibration transmitted to supporting surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Genelec","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44451218915431,"sku":"479171","price":1125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/genelec-8330a_479171_1.jpg?v=1787096341","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.com\/products\/genelec-8330am-2-way-compact-active-monitor-mystic-black-single","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
