    Topping DX5 Review (DAC & HP Amp)

    Ok, I didn't know, avr and hifi amp would do that if you connect hp on their front port, they would automatically shut down the speakers. Anyways, it is ok to use the remote to do it, though, would be convenient to auto shut the speakers when listening with the headphones since I do not see the...

    Topping DX5 Review (DAC & HP Amp)

    Noob question but is there a way the unit will turn off LO when I plug my headphone in ? I have noticed sound is coming both from the speakers and the headphone set at the same time. I can turn it off by double clicking on the knob and switching to PO only instead of PO+LO but is there a way...

    Genelec setups in living rooms [how to]

    Feedback of my installation after a few months now. It consists in 3 8340’s, 2 8330’s and a 7370. The room is 5m x5m and ceiling is at 2m20 height. It can totally deliver an extremely loud home cinema experience. 7370 mandatory though, only way to get these powerful bass movies require. We...

    New IOTAVX 17-Channel Home-Cinema AV Processor

    I own a avx17 for a few months now, it is behind a hdfury vrroom and process all kind of audio signal, atmos etc. My speakers set up consists of 3 8340 genelec, 2 8330 and a 7370 so I don’t need the room correction, perfect deal at 1500. It is a very good and reliable device so far. Do any of...

    Question about how to connect a genelec installation

    I think that is what I will do. Ive changed the configuration in the living room, I took the couch forward, it is 2m50 from the screen. More or less. The 77" screen looks far bigger… I guess the 8340’s will be a far better fit this way and I had to make some space for the surround. As you are...

    Marantz AV7705 Home Theater Processor Review

    I'd also like to see a review of the 7706 since I own two hdmi 2.1 devices and would enjoy a proper management of all sources into one AVP. I look into this device because I am considering to get some genelec as a HT and the XLR output makes sense obviously. Something was interesting when I...

    Nice. What is your screen size? How far are you? These are some 8361 or 8351? They look big!

    Yes, this is a dedicated genelec showroom. They do demo and they help you build your project. They expect you to buy from one their preferred supplier after they give you counsel, they told me they will align to internet prices. I will have an explanation for glm and how to set it up. They...

    Genelec setups in living rooms [how to]

    Ah, and another that might interest you guys, both the senior product manager from genelec in Finland and the French product specialist told me they use marantz 7706 in their show room. They both insisted on the xlr output and analog wasn’t a consideration for them, totally acceptable. I mean...

    Genelec setups in living rooms [how to]

    I talked with a French genelec product specialist. The guy clearly warn me that the sub is probably too much in a flat. He told me 5 8340’s will totally do in a 30m2 room though if I want to use it for stéréo purpose, I could put three 8350 for lcr and I’ll be totally ok even without the sub...

    Genelec setups in living rooms [how to]

    I asked genelec about the 2.1 configuration with 2 8340 and 1 7370. Since I will be exactly 3m50 from the speakers (they’ll be off the wall and I’ll be moving the couch towards the tv to place the surrounds), they told me it should be ok if I don’t expect to listen too loud. I’m making some...

    Question about how to connect a genelec installation

    Thank you for giving me a feedback. Since I will be approximately 3.5 meters from the pair of 8340 plus a sub, do you think it will be enough to watch movies properly? Amir’s review are making me weary about the spl at my listening point. Though, he listened to them without a sub.

    Question about how to connect a genelec installation

    Thank you very much sir! About your installation, you have a 7360 and a pair of 8340. How is your room? Do you use glm? How is the sound in the room when you are not at the sweet spot? I intend to do the critical listening and watching at the couch, aka sweet spot, but this is a living room...

    Genelec setups in living rooms [how to]

    Very good piece of advice, the price drop is huge from 8340 to 8040, half price! Then, I need a avr with pre out and dirac, what are the options out there? Which subs would you recommend?

    Genelec setups in living rooms [how to]

    Thank you for your reply. 8xx1 is out of the way, far too expensive. 8340 is 1250€ and the 8350 is 1750€ here in Europe. The 7370 is 2600. I considered Neumann but glm made me look the other way… It is true it will make a big price difference to go German instead of Finnish…

    Genelec setups in living rooms [how to]

    Hey there, I’m considering a 7370 and a pair of 8340 for my living room. I have actually just read the home theater page from the genelec website :D It is a 5 x 5,50 meters room, ceiling is at 2,4m. 67m3 with exact measurement. We are watching perfectly centered at about 4m from the screen...

    Audiopraise VanityPro Review (HDMI Audio Extractor)

    It would be nice to have a hdmi 2.1 compliance for this device but a fury vrroom can make a work around. I actually have two hdmi 2.1 sources, they could be sent to the vrroom, one output to the tv and the other to the vanity, and vanity push digital output to genelec. Since the pc and the ps5...

    Tonewinner at-300 av pre pro + buckeye amp Hypex NC252MP Amplifier am I crazy?

    Ok I understand for the room correction. I have read the chart but when you go to their website, they indicate 8040 and a 7370 sub will do the trick for a mid size room. I will probably write to them directly to be sure.

    Question about how to connect a genelec installation

    I have the answer about the tv, it does output a stereo signal. I had the idea it could send multichannel but it is not possible. So what would you recommend to convert the spdif to the aes digital input of the sub? I’ll use that till I will upgrade the system with a third speaker and so on.
