The compact 8030C is a powerful bi-amplified 2-way near field monitor, ideal for use in home studios or models, workstations, installations and surround monitoring systems, which incorporates a 5 "woofer and a high frequency unit. ¾ "with metal dome and DCW waveguides. It incorporates the enclosure MDE (Minimum Diffraction Enclosure), which has rounded edges and curved front and sides to achieve a very uniform frequency response and an excellent sound image with the minimum diffraction of the edges of the enclosure. Like all Genelec 8000 series monitors, the 8030C also features Wavelec Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW), exclusive to Genelec, a revolutionary reflex port design, optimized aluminum structure, extremely durable semi-matt finishes and grilles acoustically optimized metallic The low distortion transducers are connected to specific amplifiers after a sophisticated filtering. The enclosures have magnetic shielding, protection circuitry against overloads and versatile response controls. The flexible mounting options include integrated back support points for wall and floor support and 3/8 "thread at the base of the enclosure.The 8030C monitor incorporates the stand (Isolation Positioner / Decoupler) .This is an ingenious support This allows the monitor's acoustic axis to be directed towards the listener, while mechanically and acoustically decoupling it from the surface on which it rests. They require high sound levels and a low cutoff frequency, can be complemented with the 7050B subwoofer or the 7060B subwoofer in surround applications.Available in matte black, white and polished aluminum.As part of its sustainability program, Genelec has developed a long-term research to minimize consumption in their products The first step in this program is the introduction of the management system and Intelligent Signal Sensing ISS power. This feature causes the Genelec monitors and subwoofers to go into standby mode in the absence of the input signal. The power consumption in this mode is less than 0.5W. The ISS power management system complies with the requirements of the ErP-2013 standard. ISS has been implemented using programmable electronics. When the input signal remains below the activation level, a counter measures a predetermined time before the system goes into standby mode. This time before the standby mode may vary between different products, depending on your specific needs. The level of analog input signal that wakes the system is around -68 dBu. The activation is done quickly and the system is connected silently, without any audible noise.
