Compact size, big sound

The Genelec 8320 RAW is an active two-way studio monitor that delivers the first-class sound producers the world over have come to expect from the Finnish manufacturer. With its stylish housing produced from lightweight die-cast aluminium, this model features two separate amplifiers with a total output of 100W, driving the 4" woofer and 3/4" tweeter to deliver sound pressure levels of up to 107dB SPL per stereo pair. In addition to its automatic start function, this speaker features integrated SAM technology, which allows multiple Genelec monitors to be optimised using software, a computer interface, and a measurement microphone. A balanced XLR input allows signals to be fed in without interference, while a protective circuit prevents driver damage by intercepting short-term level peaks. Magnetic shielding is also included as standard.

Impressive range of features

With a frequency range from 55Hz to 23kHz, the Genelec 8320 RAW delivers impressive low-end performance for a compact monitor. To achieve this, the speaker uses bass reflex technology, which maximises low-frequency sound pressure and extends the driver transmission range. The (deactivatable) automatic start function detects whether a signal is present and automatically switches the amplifier unit on as required. This makes the speaker easy to operate and helps save energy. Two RJ45 network ports are also provided to integrate the monitor into a GLM network, enabling dynamic frequency adjustments via software.

For the discerning listener

Anyone looking for a monitor speaker with a flat frequency response and a spacious, three-dimensional sound will not be disappointed with the Genelec 8320 RAW. The speaker is an excellent choice for recording and mixing professionals who need high-quality sound in small spaces. Its housing materials and shape also contribute, minimising resonances and ensuring optimum sound dispersion in multi-speaker setups.

About Genelec

Genelec was founded in 1976 by Ilpo Martikainen. It grew from a family business into one of the world's leading manufacturers of professional studio and broadcasting loudspeakers. To this day, Genelec's loudspeakers are manufactured exclusively in Finland. Genelec offers performance-oriented, neutral-sounding loudspeakers and subwoofer systems for audio professionals and sound enthusiasts, and a combination of innovative technology and design ensure that the range of products is continuously improving. The company is committed to sustainable development and environmental awareness. In 2018, Genelec was awarded the Pro Sound "Company of the Year" award. Genelec speakers are favourites of such recording industry veterans as Obie O'Brien, Michael Carnes, and David Reitzas, as well as of producers like Hardwell, Keith Ross, and Vini Vici.

Ideal for stereo and surround setups

Whether in a small professional studio, home setup, or editing suite, the Genelec 8320 RAW delivers outstanding results thanks to its compact dimensions, flat frequency response, and automatic room-adaptation features. It can be used not only as part of a stereo set, but also as a component in a surround setup. Genelec also offers a suitable subwoofer for this purpose – the Genelec 7350APM (article no. 355052). When used on resonant surfaces such as a desk or stand, the integrated IsoPod comes into play, decoupling the speaker from its support surface using a combination of rubber feet and connecting bars. Threaded inserts at the rear of the housing provide secure mounting. Genelec also supplies suitable mounting accessories, such as the Genelec 8000-422B Wall Mount (article no. 347094).

Sehr gute Monitorboxen mit klaren Sound

Flxo 01.07.2023

Ich habe die Boxen zusammen mit dem GLM Set bestellt und muss sagen, dass die Soundqualität sehr gut ist, auch in einem schwierigen Raum als Homestudio.
Im direkten Vergleich mit den Focal evo 50 hört man einen großen Unterschied, was die Klarheit angeht.
Einziges Manko wäre vielleicht dass es im Low end etwas fehlt und man dafür einen Subwoofer benötigt.
