- Bass reflex port
- Built-in attenuators
- Mid-range frequency adjustment
- Protection against radio frequency interference, overheating, and power on/off clicks

The cabinet is made of a special shaped, cast aluminum, yet the monitor weighs comparably to competitors made of MDF and composite materials. The DCW (Directivity Control Waveguide) technology is responsible for adjusting the waveguide configuration to the amplifiers.
The monitor consists of an 8" cone woofer and a 1" metal dome tweeter, providing a smooth frequency response and wide sound dispersion. Both drivers have neodymium magnets to minimize interference with other equipment and protect against overheating. The rear panel features a bass reflex port to enhance the lower frequency range. The cabinet has magnetic shielding to prevent signal interference.
Genelec uses a bi-amp scheme, amplifying low and mid signals separately from high frequencies. The monitor also includes an active crossover with a 1.8 kHz separation frequency. The total output power of the amplifiers is 270W (150+120).
This monitor is an excellent professional tool for various studio applications. It is ideal for musicians in need of compact yet powerful personal monitoring and home theater systems.
