Genelec 8320ARWM-Pack

Step into a world of precise sound reproduction with the Genelec 8320A monitors paired seamlessly with the Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLM) system. This compact yet powerful duo is perfect for audio professionals seeking pristine monitoring accuracy, even in challenging acoustic spaces.

The Genelec 8320A Smart Active Monitors are engineered with SAM™ (Smart Active Monitor) technology, allowing them to automatically calibrate to their environment when used with the GLM system. Despite their small footprint, these monitors deliver an impressively accurate frequency response, leveraging Genelec's MDE™ (Minimum Diffraction Enclosure) and Directivity Control Waveguide™ designs for clear, neutral sound. Each unit features a robust die-cast aluminum enclosure and Class D amplification, ensuring reliable performance in any setup. Ideal for desktop, broadcast, and smaller control rooms, the 8320A offers both balanced analog input and full integration into a GLM-calibrated network.

The GLM system enhances the power of the 8320A by offering intelligent setup and calibration tools. With the included GLM network adapter and measurement microphone, users can auto-calibrate their monitors using the Genelec AutoCal process. This not only corrects level, distance, and frequency response discrepancies but also enables intuitive control of system volume and presets directly from the software. The result is a consistent, professional listening experience tailored to your specific room characteristics.

Together, the 8320A monitors and GLM system form a highly adaptable, smart monitoring solution, allowing you to focus on your creative work with the confidence that you're hearing an accurate representation of your audio.
