Hello. I have a pair of Genelec G five (same as 8050) in my livingroom and looking to upgrade to either 8351b or 8361a. My room is 27m2 (290 sq feet). Listening distance is 2,5 meters (8,2 feet).
Im pretty happy with the G five’s but want to upgrade to what i see as my end-game. I have turned the bass and low bass down on the G fives because they are mounted on the wall and one of them is near a corner so i dont think i need the extra bass SPL of the 8361a. I listen mostly at low to moderate volume but sometimes i crank it up.
Have read many hours on forums about these two speakers but its hard to choose. The price difference dont bother me as this speakers will last a lifetime. Can the 8361a cause more problems in the bass region with to much bass or will they sound equal on the same volume due to the GLM? Anyone have experience with any of these speakers and want to share?
Im so happy to find this forum and Amir’s youtube channel, free of snakeoil and biased reviews. Thanks!
