Description
The 8050B Active Two-Way 8" Studio Monitor from Genelec provides an accurate reproduction of the source material in a compact form-factor with high output. Its die-cast aluminium enclosure features a rounded shape, which minimises distortions caused by edge diffraction. The metal dome tweeter is surrounded by a smoothly-shaped Directivity Controlled Waveguide, which helps to create an even response when listening both on and off axis.
The 8050B is built with Intelligent Signal Sensing (ISS) technology which automatically activates the speaker when an audio signal is detected, and puts it in Standby Mode when no signal is present, reducing the energy consumption to less than 0.5 watts. The 8050B features a 120 watt high frequency amplifier for its 25 mm tweeter, and a 150 watt low frequency amplifier for its 205 mm woofer. The bass response is expanded by a rear-facing reflex port, and a separately available Genelec subwoofer can be used to monitor a wider array of frequencies.

Absolutely insane! It's really hard to beat these monitors, the clarity of any audio you throw at them is top notch. I've owned these for 3 years now, and previously had a pair of KRK Rokit's, these make the KRK's sound like cheap, muddy Hifi speakers. For electronic music production, these allow me to hear absolutely everything while making sounds and mixing, from the thickest bass to the finest details, you hear everything! Couldn't recommend these enough. Make sure you get a pair of stands for these! I bought the Gravity stands from Rubber Monkey and they work well with these.Read more Read less
