Celebrate 40 Years Of Genelec With Special Edition Sapphire Blue Studio Monitors

In celebration of Genelec's 40th anniversary, Genelec announce the limited availability of a special Saphire Edition 8341 pack with GLM kit, presentation crate & commemorative book and bag.

Earlier this year Genelec announced their intention to produce a 40th Anniversary Edition version of the 8341 coaxial three-way monitor from The Ones series – and they asked you to choose the colour finish for them.

Well, thousands of you voted for your favourite colour, and they’re pleased to announce that Sapphire Blue was comfortably the most popular choice - so they have produced a limited production run of just 200 pairs of this special 8341 model, individually numbered and supplied complete with a GLM kit, a 40th Anniversary commemorative book, and shipped in a custom wooden case.

For applications calling for extraordinary imaging, extended frequency response, short to medium listening distance or long, fatigue-free working hours, The Ones - 8331, 8341 and 8351 - are in an elite league of their own. All being ultimate point source monitors, they combine a number of unique Genelec innovations with sustainable manufacturing, but without a single compromise on sound.

The Ones not only promote faster and more consistent production decision making, but also longer listening time than traditional loudspeakers, because unnatural imaging, a main contributor to listener fatigue, is minimized. Dispersion is controlled over an unusually wide frequency range thanks to the large integrated waveguide (DCW™) with the hidden dual woofers; and orientation may be either horizontal or vertical. Their looks are striking too, either way you turn them.

8341 packs an abundance of performance and power into a compact enclosure, but beautiful sound and high exposure can be a dangerous combination. Please be careful with your ears and utilize 8341’s mighty power for headroom, rather than elevating the average listening level.

With the latest SAM technology included, 8341 always makes the best of the room and monitor placement. Use the Genelec GLM application and its auto-calibration function, based on experience from thousands of studios around the world, to compensate for detrimental room influence and delay, regardless if you work in mono, stereo or immersive formats.
