Genelec 8030C Studio Monitor Review

I am using the 7040 with 8020 and I am very happy with that combination. Since I live in an apartment building, the room is ~ 3.5X4.5 meters and I don't feel that I am missing anything, given the circumstances. It all depends on your expectations and music taste. If you are listening to EDM or rap, and if you don't have sensitive neighbors, you may need something that goes deeper.
 
I added a KALI ws6.2 to my 8030c in the living room. Quite an improvement, totally happy.
More than sufficient power now for my 35m2 living room. Well, overkill actually.
Did minor room mode adjustments, REW, UMIK-1, DSP.

With home assistant, I automatically power off the kali when the streamer is idle for 10 minutes.
With home assistant, I automatically trigger the footswitch at 22:00PM with an esp32.
