Nearfield monitoring with real muscle. The 8050B has power in abundance, making it ideally suited to larger spaces and longer listening distances.

Found in studios where only the best is good enough, the 8050B represents a class-leading balance of extraordinary SPL output, an expansive dynamic range and an intensely detailed, transparent performance. A truly professional tool, the 8050B is most at home in large facilities, world-renowned mastering suites and broadcasting hubs of the world. Nevertheless, it still exhibits the striking good looks, rounded edges and colour-free, accurate reproduction of the rigid all-aluminium Minimum Diffraction Enclosure (MDE™).

Precise on- and off-axis frequency reproduction is guaranteed by the Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW™), while broad low-frequencies and high SPLs are delivered with a flow-optimised internal curved reflex tube and a maximised internal volume. Finally, at the end of the session the 8050B saves your studio money by automatically entering an environmentally friendly, power-saving standby mode, courtesy of Genelec Intelligent Signal Sensing (ISS™) circuitry.

Detail and transparency

The 8050B represents a class-leading balance of extraordinary SPL output, expansive dynamic range and an intensely detailed, transparent performance. With superb directivity and a wide sweet spot, you're free to move position and still trust what you're hearing.

Mixes that translate

With its neutral performance and ability to adapt to your room via simple rear-panel room compensation switches, the 8050B ensures a flat playback response to help you really analyse the spectral balance of a recording and produce mixes that always translate reliably.
