    Genelec 8341A SAM™ Studio Monitor Review

    8351A → B the only thing, where i would say the tech got forward in this time is with the class D amps ... will love to see some collaboration of genelec with hypex or purifi in regards to the drivers or the dac, wouldn't say there is really something new under the sun

    Genelec 8361A Review (Powered Monitor)

    in regard to the subs my question are (despite they are going lower... ) - do they deliver equal or better quality of the bass - do the mains benefit from unloading the lows (quality wise ... not so much about the max SPL) - is there acoustic audible advantage in putting the lows near the floor...

    Does Phase Distortion/Shift Matter in Audio? (no*)

    I come this days again to the topic phase ... playing with the rephase to make a convolution filters for roon and watching the videos from this channel https://www.youtube.com/@ocaudiophile Anyway ... my 2c ... my thoughts first on the theory. Phase shift in bass must be a thing ... 125° let...

    as having insides in production and industry in general ... sometimes you have unproportional cost increase with volume ... so, this has to be analyzed as well. You are always looking for a overall optimum including the whole supply-chain. And sometimes small companies just dont want to go big...

    Genelec 8351B Review (Studio Monitor)

    nice discussion ... :) Can totally relay to what @galileon writes. In general its not about if something is there or not. Is more about how is presented and where is the emphasis. Genelecs are lively and full of energy but certain type of music is better suited with something more mellow. As i...

    YouTube video "The shocking SOUND DIFFERENCE Between Speaker Stands"

    YouTube video "The shocking SOUND DIFFERENCE Between Speaker Stands"

    There is difference between stands ... but you cant get it measuring like this. He measured the room. I suppose it can be found more in the impulse response on different frequencies in near field measurement. Its not surprising that heavy stands that have no much of resonance itself is best. I...

    That's the biggest question in my opinion ... how they compare to 8351B (which sadly also lack of modern connectivity ... roon, smartphone app ... ect ) Reading your opinion i would say, they are more close to D&D then to genelec.

    Genelec 8361A vs 8351B

    Have both ...use only GLM - does the job better. Dirac over GLM is worse. Didnt tested properly GLM over dirac tough. I mean it depends which is first.

    Genelec 8351B Review (Studio Monitor)

    fair enough, the acoustics of the room is not something you can ignore or subtract. However, some specifics I think are felt regardless of it. I got in terms of resolution better bass response from the genelecs in my more disadvantageous room (small and no bass traps) but on the other hand I...

    Genelec 8351B Review (Studio Monitor)

    more like a clear distinguishability of parts of the music that are prominent in front and a such that are background and all in between. Could say depth also but is not exactly like this, because depth in physical sence is combined with more reverberation and not only lower levels of...

    Genelec 8351B Review (Studio Monitor)

    I had the opportunity the other day to hear the d&d 8c and indirectly compare with my 8351B. The comparison, besides being indirect, is also a bit unfair, because the 8c were in a perfectly treated room with dimensions well above mine and the speakers themselves were placed more than a meter and...

    https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/minidsp-shd-studio-alternatives.40254/#post-1419421 About the interesting topic Dirac vs GLM. Because i didn't get the GLM kit right away and also was actually convinced that Dirac must be more than enough I listened my 8351B for few...
