Studio Monitors – Genelec 8010A Review<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Genelec 8010A monitors have the clear, warm, detailed sound of its bigger siblings. Ideal for the small studio, desktop use, or professional monitoring on the move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
What are they?<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The Genelec 8010A studio monitors are the smallest member of the bi-amplified Genelec 8000 series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Genelec have been making studio monitors since 1978, and are true innovators in the music industry. Their studio monitors can be found in recording studios, post production houses and mobile units all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Standing slightly proud of a pint glass, the Genelec 8010A monitor has a tiny footprint. A 3\u201d woofer and \u00be\u201d tweeter are housed in a sturdy die-cast aluminium enclosure. There’s balanced XLR connectors and equalisation controls on the back, and metal driver grilles for protection on the move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No one can doubt the pedigree of Genelec monitors, but tare these as good as the larger, more expensive studio monitors in the Genelec 8000 range?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the box<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Genelec 8010A studio monitors are sold singly, not as a pair. Each one arrived in a thick cardboard box, with prominent ‘Made in Finland’ text. There’s no included audio cables, which is standard practice for professional studio monitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
