Genelec 8330AWM-Pack

Experience uncompromising audio fidelity with the Genelec 8330A Smart Active Monitors paired with the Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLM) system. Designed for critical listening environments, this bundle delivers advanced calibration capabilities and pristine sound reproduction in a compact format, ideal for music production, post-production, broadcast, and multimedia studios.

The 8330A monitors stand out with their impressive dynamic range, extended low-frequency response, and dual analog/digital input options, including AES/EBU connectivity. Built around Genelec's renowned SAM™ (Smart Active Monitor) technology, each 8330A features an advanced DSP engine, enabling precise room compensation and flexible system integration via the GLM network. The robust die-cast aluminum enclosure, combined with the Directivity Control Waveguide™ and Iso-Pod™ stand, ensures accurate imaging, minimal coloration, and vibration isolation in any setup.

When paired with the GLM system, the 8330A becomes an intelligent part of a smart monitoring ecosystem. The included GLM adapter and measurement microphone enable fast, accurate AutoCal calibration, balancing levels, aligning phase, and fine-tuning frequency response to the specific acoustics of your space. Whether you're switching between listening positions or working in a challenging room, GLM helps you maintain a consistent and reliable sonic reference. The system also offers volume control and preset management, streamlining workflow and enhancing confidence in every decision.

Together, the 8330A monitors and GLM system provide an adaptable and future-proof monitoring solution, bringing studio-grade precision and clarity to even the most complex acoustic environments.
