The Genelec 8050A is a compact, bi-amplified, 2-way speaker, with 150- and 120-Watt amplifiers powering shielded 8" and 1" Low and High frequency drivers, housed in a sturdy, die-cast aluminum enclosure equipped with wall and stand mounting supports, and designed for use in professional audio production environments.
The two unique features of the 8050A are the MDE(Minimum Diffraction Enclosure) cabinet design, and the Iso-Pod(Isolation Positioner/Decoupler) speaker mount. The MDE design, with it's rounded, curved cabinet edges, improves spatial imaging and playback consistency. The Iso-Pod is a positioning mount that raises and isolates the speaker from the rumble and resonances often caused by surface placement.
The 8050A rear panel consists of a balanced 3-pin XLR connector, a modest complement of tone control DIP switches, allowing for adjustment to the room's acoustic environment, and a bass port improves low end reproduction.
The 8050A is a worthy and progressive solution for recording and mixing in commercial and project studio, AV post, or mobile truck environments.
