Genelec 8010A Studio Monitor, Raw

Full Description

Compact design, big performance

The Genelec 8010 Raw proves that great things come in small packages, delivering exceptional audio in a monitor you can fit anywhere. Perfect for mobile setups, small studio desks, or workspaces where room is at a premium, the 8010 Raw is built to be portable yet uncompromising in audio quality. Despite its compact dimensions, it outputs powerful and clear sound, bringing a full monitoring experience to environments where other monitors might struggle to perform. If you’re mixing on the road or creating in a limited space, the 8010 Raw offers a trustworthy, consistent reference that’s easy to transport and set up wherever you need.

Customisable sound to fit any room

One standout feature of the 8010 Raw is its ability to adapt to different environments using intuitive rear-panel controls. The “Bass Tilt” and “Desktop” switches allow you to adjust the monitor’s low-frequency response, providing options to manage bass levels depending on your placement in the room. This makes the 8010 Raw versatile for a wide range of setups—from placing it close to a wall to positioning it on a reflective surface. With these easy-to-use controls, you can achieve a balanced, accurate sound that’s tailored to your specific space, ensuring reliable monitoring regardless of where you’re working.

Energy-efficient with automatic power management

The ISSTM Autostart function is a simple but powerful feature for energy-conscious users. The 8010 Raw senses when an audio signal is present, automatically powering up when playback begins and switching to standby mode after playback stops. This feature keeps power consumption low, using less than 0.5 watts in standby mode, which is especially useful if you’re working in a busy environment or often step away from your setup. And for those who prefer full control, the Autostart function can be turned off, allowing manual operation via the power switch.

Flexible mounting for versatile placement

The 8010 Raw offers several mounting options, ensuring you can place it optimally for your listening needs. The IsoPod stand not only isolates the monitor from vibration but also allows easy angling to direct sound toward the listener. Additionally, the rear-panel threaded holes are compatible with Omnimount®, VESA, and Sanus brackets, giving you flexibility to mount the monitor on walls, ceilings, or stands as best suits your workspace. This variety of mounting choices makes the 8010 Raw suitable for both traditional studio setups and unconventional placements, ensuring great sound from any position.
