That was the best recording of speakers playing I’ve ever heard on TH-cam. Obviously, it’s only a recording, but I definitely felt like the detail and separation of the transducers was captured really well.
finally i understand why ppl choose Genelec ! my next studio monitor buy will be Genelec 100%, what sub from genelec is good and have a good price in your opinion ? :)
Genelec subs are expensive for home use UNLESS you want GLM calibration (which I want) or extreme durability. If you just want spl and to go low than they are VERY expensive for what they offer. Btw I'm just in process of buying 8330 with sub 7350.
Wow, even with youtubes lossy audio compression, they still sound beautiful, how are they so far? You should make a follow up now that its been 6 months, I'd enoy seeing that, also what mic did you use?
Well, the Zoom H6 is one of the best field recorders. So I guess it mainly depends on your speakers. I have the same genelec models and it has really impressive sound quality. Comparable with Elac, perhaps a bit warm in sound, but in a good way. Very impressive sound power for this small form factor, very heavy for this size. High build quality. I guess I’ll get a second one and use them as monitor speakers.
In this case the shelf gives a bit more weight to the bass frequencies by expanding vibrating surface area and yes it will not sound as accurate but maybe more fun in some cases? :)
Mind telling us the reason? frequency response too much like a living room speaker? They should be pretty ideal for clarity, with the ribbon tweeters and a 3.5" woofer that should be fast and accurate and free of wobble...?
Obviously is not using for any music professional work, otherwise it would not mount upside down. There's a reason why speakers are build with the tweeter on top.
@@Filete Yes, so that when you have them on a stand or on a desk the tweeter will be around ear level. If they are mounted on a shelf, such as in this video, they should be inverted like this so the tweeter is at ear level. The lower frequencies that come from the 3" woofer are not as directional or sensitive to location as the tweeter so this should be better
how are suppose to get a feel of the sound haha it is going through so much other things there is noway we can judge the sound based on a video that doesnt make any sense! please enlighten me if im wrong
you are half right, has all the videos about speakers, theres no way to make a 100% judge, they are only references (if you make a recording just like this, using a zoom h6, in that room, for a bad sounding pair of little speakers and compare in that with the genelecs, you can feel the diference, you can judge. But again, its just a reference in a specific context.
hello, just bought these 2 weeks ago. love them, but if i turn the volume up a little when listening a house track for example the bass starts to sound distorted or something like that. i hear the bass vibrating .yours do that at one point if u push them to hard ? just want to know if its normal to a speaker of this size or mine ar a bit damaged ? thanks !
@@falsefreedom1713 the thing is with genelecs, they will let you push them over their capability and it will damage them if done over and over again for a long period of time... then the protection will come on IN EXTREME CASES. Play them loud at times but not MAX its not there to be used as MAX. hear them distort, put them back a notch and a tad more and there you go.
Thanks I had to listen upside down

Then you're utterly insane.

How do you like them compared to the iloud?

Genelec or Yamaha ?

The video only sounds as good as your speakers, room and the camera's mic. It's not really close to a representation of the real thing.

@@mandrael And did you?
@@MiDnYTe25 Obviously....
And your entire metal shelf turns into a sound emitter...
rubber foam Insulation needed.

What causing this very high frequency beeping? It kills my ears! Is that coming from the speakers or recording problem?
Hi sir...Thanks for your video.
I want to buy this one but i'm not sure about its loudness...Is it enough for 12m room?
yes it is loud enough, 25 watts treble and 25watts subwoofer with very tight bass..total 50 watts..by far the best i have tried.
@@theones261 how's the bass?
can I ask you for a track list ?
Thissss
Dont' need it amplifier? All genelec are active speaker?
They are active.
Active speakers don't need amps :)
It's biamping. 8010 has each 25w amp for twitter and driver.
Thank you for your review. I thinking about switching my Adam A3X's for Genelec.

I think the Adams are better honestly.
Why you install the speakers upside down?
Easier for the mount system i think

is it ok to place the speaker upside down, coz i'm planning my 8010 same set up as yours..
Yes it is fine, general rule is to have the treble at ear level 👍.

hi, what do you use for volume control ?
I use Arrow from universal audio.

You should probably just check with Genelec support, they should be happy to help you with that.
When you say too hard, what volume?
