2-way active SAM studio monitor with a 5″ woofer, 0.75″ metal dome tweeter, 45 Hz-23 kHz frequency response and 100 W of Class-D amplification.
The Genelec 8330A is a compact 2-way active SAM studio monitor designed for accurate monitoring in small control rooms, project studios and mobile setups. It combines a 5″ woofer with a 0.75″ metal dome tweeter, powered by dedicated 50 W LF and 50 W HF Class-D amplifiers.
The Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW) improves imaging and provides a wide, controlled listening area, while the bass-reflex port extends low-frequency response. The low-diffraction aluminum enclosure is designed to minimize unwanted reflections and coloration.
The monitor supports automatic calibration and detailed frequency adjustment through GLM (Genelec Loudspeaker Manager) software. It provides both balanced analog and AES3 digital audio connectivity, along with two RJ45 Ethernet connections for network control. Intelligent Signal Sensing (ISS) enables automatic power-saving operation, while the included Iso-Pod provides vibration isolation and flexible positioning.
