Big Sound from a Small Enclosure: The Genelec 8020D Studio Monitor
The Genelec 8020D active studio monitor demonstrates that great things truly come in small packages. This compact monitor is a staple in small studios, outside broadcast vans, and post-production suites worldwide, offering an exceptional combination of portability and powerful, precise performance. Despite its small footprint, the 8020D delivers a balanced frequency response and a surprisingly high SPL.
Engineered for critical listening, the 8020D features Genelec's renowned Minimum Diffraction Enclosure (MDE™) and Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW™) technologies. These work together to provide a flat frequency response, precise imaging, and a wide, uncoloured listening area. The included Iso-Pod™ stand decouples the monitor from its surface, reducing unwanted vibrations and allowing you to angle the speaker for perfect alignment.
With its simple rear-panel room compensation switches, you can easily adapt the 8020D to any acoustic environment. It's a small but mighty monitoring solution that provides the portability of a nearfield monitor with the legendary accuracy you expect from Genelec.
