Product Description
The Genelec 8030CP-2 is a professional reference studio monitor designed for mixing, mastering, and critical monitoring in small to medium-sized studios. If you are looking for a compact monitor with superior power, reference accuracy, and high SPL, this is your ideal monitor.
Powerful Bi-Amplified Design
100W of Amplified Power
The 8030CP-2 provides 100W of total amplified power: 50W for the 5-inch woofer and 50W for the 3/4-inch tweeter. This power is sufficient for professional reference monitoring with high SPL.
Independent Class-D Amplifiers
Each driver has its own independent Class-D amplifier, allowing for precise optimization of each frequency range. This ensures accurate and balanced reproduction of vocals and instruments.
Extended Professional Frequency Range
Flat Reference Response
The frequency range is 54 Hz to 20 kHz (±2.0 dB), providing a flat and accurate response in the human audible range. The extended -6 dB response is 47 Hz to 25 kHz, allowing for monitoring of deep lows and extended highs.
Guaranteed Reference Accuracy
The ±2.0 dB accuracy is even tighter than many monitors, ensuring that what you mix on the 8030CP-2 will translate faithfully to other playback systems. It is the gold standard for professional mixing.
High SPL for Powerful Monitoring
104 dB Maximum SPL
The maximum SPL of 104 dB provides enough volume for professional reference monitoring even in medium-sized studios. The peak SPL per pair with musical material is 110 dB at a distance of 1 meter.
Professional Volume
This level of SPL allows for mixing at professional volumes without the need for additional amplification.
Superior Quality Drivers
5-Inch Woofer
The 5-inch (130mm) woofer provides controlled, accurate, and powerful low and mid-range reproduction. The size allows for an extended low-frequency range with excellent clarity.
3/4-Inch Tweeter with DCW
The 3/4-inch metal dome tweeter with Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW) provides clear, detailed, and precise high frequencies. The DCW improves off-axis dispersion for a wider stereo field.
Die-Cast Aluminum Enclosure with Curved Edges
Premium Construction
The enclosure is built from high-quality die-cast aluminum with curved edges that reduce distortion caused by diffraction. The design minimizes unwanted reflections and resonances.
Minimum Diffraction
Genelec's Minimum Diffraction technology reduces coloration caused by enclosure reflections, providing a more neutral and transparent sound.
Advanced Equalization Controls
Adjustable Bass Roll-off
The 8030CP-2 includes bass roll-off controls to compensate for bass buildup in small spaces or room corners.
Acoustic Flexibility
The controls allow you to adapt the monitor to different listening spaces, ensuring accurate mixes regardless of room acoustics.
Professional Connectivity
Balanced XLR Input
The monitor features balanced female XLR connectors for professional connection to audio interfaces, mixers, and other studio audio sources.
Universal Compatibility
The standard XLR input is compatible with virtually any professional studio equipment.
