Genelec 8341AM Smart Active Monitor Three-Way Black Finish

The Genelec 8341A in black is a point-source pro audio near-field monitor featuring a coaxial design that aligns driver and tweeter with two 6.6” woofers for accurate sound emission. It includes Intelligent Signal Sensing technology, automatically switching between analog and AES/EBU digital sources via XLR inputs. Users can override this with Genelec’s GLM software for room tuning and daisy-chaining, requiring Cat5 cables to connect to a GLM adapter. RJ45 ports and an XLR output for signal copying are also provided.

Description
Genelec 8341A Point-Source Monitor – Black Finish
The Genelec 8341A, styled in an elegant black finish, represents a pinnacle of near-field monitor design for professional audio applications. Featuring a revolutionary coaxial design, the 8341A nests its driver, tweeter, and dual 6.6” woofers in a single location, aligning their acoustic axes for a precise point-source of sound radiation. This unit ensures pristine sound production, whether from analog or digital sources, with its Intelligent Signal Sensing (ISS) technology.
Detailed Description
Coaxially designed, the 8341A merges the midrange driver and tweeter closely with the low-frequency radiating woofers, creating a unified sound source. This tight integration translates into an accurate and detailed soundstage in various listening environments.
The ISS technology seamlessly detects the input source—be it analog via one XLR input or AES/EBU digital signal via another XLR—and switches accordingly, ensuring hassle-free operation. For more control, the Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLM) software offers capabilities to override automatic selections, tune the monitor to your acoustic space, and coordinate multiple monitors using Cat5 cabling through RJ45 ports.
The rear panel houses DIP switches and a rotary level control for standalone adjustments, plus a reflex port to enhance low-frequency energy distribution. The included Iso-Pod stand provides isolation from resonant surfaces. Additional features like the acoustically concealed woofers and proprietary waveguide technology further enhance audio fidelity and dispersion.
Advanced Features
Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLM) Compatibility
Utilize the free Genelec GLM software to fine-tune and manage the 8341A, maximizing its performance in any setting.
Flexible Input Selection
The 8341A supports both analog and AES/EBU digital inputs, auto-selecting the appropriate source or allowing manual override via GLM. An XLR output also facilitates signal daisy-chaining.
Minimum-Diffraction Coaxial Driver (MDC)
Integrating the midrange and tweeter, MDC minimizes acoustic diffraction for a flat frequency response on and off-axis. Ideal for near-field listening applications, it supports both horizontal and vertical orientations.
Large Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW)
The expansive DCW, which incorporates the midrange driver cone, ensures optimal directivity control down to low bass frequencies, producing an even sound field.
Smart Active Monitor (SAM)
SAM technology works with GLM software to provide automatic room compensation, ensuring neutral sound and precise imaging by counteracting room acoustics’ effects.
