Audio professionals in need of a complete monitoring setup will be impressed with this B&H Kit, which combines a pair of Genelec 8320A SAM Series 4" 2-Way 100W Active Studio Monitors with Genelec GLM 2.0 User Kit and the Genelec 9310B Wired Volume Control for GLM V2.0 to create a complete turnkey monitoring system with room calibration software and a tactile loudness controller.
Styled in a dark gray producer finish, Genelec 8320A is a single SAM-Series, 2-way active studio monitor designed to provide accurate mix referencing with software control capabilities for audio engineers, musicians, and producers in project studios, small control rooms, edit suites, or mobile setups. It features 100W of Class-D amplification driving a 4” woofer and 3/4” tweeter, producing a frequency response of 55 Hz to 23 kHz.
A proprietary waveguide enhances imaging, while the bass reflex port extends the low-frequency response. The die-cast aluminum enclosure is shaped to minimize diffraction and reflections. An XLR 3-pin jack delivers connectivity for a balanced analog source. Built-in signal overload protection enhances dependability and protects the speaker. Detailed frequency adjustments and automatic calibration can be performed via GLM (Genelec Loudspeaker Manager) software and the GLM User Kit (available separately). A selectable power-saving mode enables automatic power up/down via a signal-sensing circuit.
The 8320A offers multiple mounting options including an Iso-Pod isolation stand and threaded holes that are compatible with mic stands and various wall/ceiling brackets.

The GLM User Kit from Genelec is an accessory kit designed for Genelec's SAM Monitors. It helps you calibrate the monitors to the room for the most optimal frequency and phase response. This kit includes a GLM network adapter, a calibration microphone with a holder, and a USB cable.
You'll need this kit to enable GLM software with your SAM monitors. The network adapter will connect to your computer via the USB cable. Each SAM monitor in your possession can interface with the network adapter over an Ethernet cable, which is provided with your SAM monitor (available separately).
Looking for a volume controller for your GLM V2.0 speaker system management system? Check out the black Genelec 9310B Wired Volume Control, which connects to the GLM Network Adapter and controls all SAM studio monitors and subwoofers. The controller features a 3.5mm TRS male connector for easy connectivity.
