SYSTEM
Genelec 8240A and 8250A DSP Loudspeakers are designed for precise monitoring of 24 bit/192
kHz AES/EBU digital audio signal or line level analog audio signal. They are fully compatible with
Genelec Loudspeaker Manager GLM™ and the proprietary Genelec loudspeaker control network, and
Genelec 7260A, 7270A and 7271A DSP Active
Subwoofers, but can also be used independently of
these. The 8240A and 8250A feature high SPL output, low colouration and broad bandwidth in a small
enclosure size. They are suitable for a wide variety of tasks, such as near field monitoring, mobile vans,
broadcast and TV control rooms, surround sound systems and home studios. The Minimum Diffraction
Enclosure™ (MDE™) and advanced Directivity Control Waveguide™ (DCW™) technologies provide
excellent frequency balance even in difficult acoustic environments.
Drivers
The bass driver dimensions are 165 mm (6 1/2”) and 205 mm (8") for 8240A and 8250A respectively. The
long, flow optimized reflex tube has a large cross sectional area and terminates with a wide flare at the
back of the enclosure. The high frequency driver is a 19 mm (3/4”) metal dome on the 8240A and a 25
mm (1") metal dome on the 8250A. All drivers are magnetically shielded.
Amplifiers
The amplifier unit is mounted in the rear of the loudspeaker enclosure. The unit incorporates special
circuitry for driver thermal overload protection. Variable input sensitivity allows accurate level matching to
console output section.
