Genelec 8330A White is an active 2-way SAM studio monitor with a 130 mm woofer and a 19 mm tweeter. Two 50 W Class D amplifiers give up to 104 dB SPL, and the response reaches down to 45 Hz. The White version has a white enclosure. See Genelec monitors in our Warsaw showroom.
More bass and headroom than the 8320A
The 8330A is the bigger sibling of the 8320A: according to Genelec it offers a little more SPL and low-end extension. The DCW waveguide and the recycled aluminium enclosure with a rear port keep the response even off axis, so mix decisions hold when you are not sitting in the exact center. The response runs from 45 Hz to 23 kHz (-6 dB), and the height with the Iso-Pod stand is 299 mm.
Calibration and digital inputs
The monitor is part of the SAM system and is calibrated in the GLM software (AutoCal 2) over a network on RJ45 sockets. Besides the analog XLR input it has an AES/EBU input and output on XLR, so you can feed it digitally and pass the signal on. Calibration needs the GLM software and either a GLM Calibration Kit device or a 9320A controller, sold separately. Genelec offers mounting accessories for this monitor, among them the 8000-406 short table stand and TRIOL floor stands (sold separately), so you can place it on a desk or on a stand.
