Genelec 8330A+7350A or 8331A? Need help choosing

Hi @Moreni! Welcome to ASR.

60cm is right at the limit of what Genelec deems sufficient distance for the 8330's drivers to sum well.

Personally, I'd really rather have a Coax design at that distance.

Have you considered not Genelec? Something like the Orbit 11 or Kali SM-5.

That would relieve any concerns about listening distance and still leave money left over for a Sub. Best of both worlds.

For the Sub, you could consider the Neumann KH750 or iLoud Sub, both of which could effectively replace GLM.

With this, did you mean to use MA 1 with the Genelecs as satellites? (In the case of using a KH 750)

I was thinking KH750/iLoud Sub + Orbit 11/SM-5.

But KH750/iLoud Sub + Genelec would work as well.

In mine opinion, for Genelec SAM satellites, You will have best integration, and best calibration precision, only with Genelec SAM subwoofer.

Neumann KH750 is best option for Neuman KH120II (all system calibrated by MA1).

iLoud sub, should be optimal for iLoud MTM MK II monitors.
