Genelec G Three Reviews

Supreme speakers

By Alexander
Rated 5 out of 5

It's not like Genelec doesn't get enough praise already, but I'll say it again-these speakers are phenomenal: flat, honest, beautifully made and are most certainly a buy it for life type purchase. The raw finish is absolutely unique and unlike anything else you can find in the high-end audio market. Truly a design highlight of probably any studio. Love the speakers and can't wait for all the hours of quality listening time in front of these. If I don't produce a platinum record using these I don't think there's anything else that could help me. See you at the Grammies!

Excellent purchase and service

I purchased a pair of Genelec G3 speakers from B&H. They were a special order from Finland and arrived well within the estimated window. And, the speakers sound great. Highly recommended equipment and vendor!

Amazing Active Speakers!

The Genelec G-3 speakers are beautiful in every way. They sound amazing!!! I am using them in my bedroom and study. They are connected to my Sonos connect and a DAC via XLR cables and they sound just about as good as my Bowers and Wilkins passive tower speakers. I would recommend these small, aesthetically pleasing active speakers to anyone who wants audiophile quality sound in a small and lovely package.

The noise with “sisisi”

As long as the power is turned on, the two units will have sisisi sound. And it can be heard even at a distance of 1feet

Pretty

I've been considering many small speaker on the desk (LSX T0/T1, etc). What drew my eye of this speaker is the aesthetics. I do believe the main point of this particularly speaker is the aesthetic (RAW aluminum) as that's what this is different from the regular G Three/8030C. Well, the simplest way to describe it it looks very much like a piece of furniture made by Restoration Hardware. The metallic pattern on this speaker is completely random and non-repeating, and looks hand rubbed. It has this very futuristic but yet rusty and old fashioned look. If you're looking for a unique speaker to decorate your desk while sounds good, this might just be the pair you're looking for. Also on shipping, it took around 4 weeks for B&H to place the order from Finland. And I found the pricing on B&H to be much cheaper than directly buying from the the Finland company who also listed this for sale (the free shipping is a real deal.)

question

Power source must be rated 230V? Just look at picture and noted that.
