The Genelec 8050B is the flagship 2-way monitor in the 8000 series, designed for professionals who demand the highest level of accuracy and clarity in their sound. Perfect for music production, mastering, post-production, and broadcasting, it delivers exceptional performance in large studio spaces, covering areas up to 40 m².
With its durable aluminum housing, the 8050B offers key acoustic advantages. The rounded edges help eliminate sound diffraction, ensuring perfect localization and imaging. The optimized sound routing delivers a balanced, wide listening zone and maintains an ultra-neutral sound—allowing for fatigue-free, confident work, even outside the sweet spot.
The flow-optimized bass reflex channel extends the low end down to 32 Hz, giving you a deeper, richer bass response. You can also adjust the frequency response to compensate for room-related colorations using switchable filters, ensuring the sound stays linear, even in less-than-ideal setups.
The included Iso-Pod stand decouples the monitor from your desk, while also allowing you to tilt the speaker to the perfect listening position. For even more flexibility, the 8050B can be wall- or ceiling-mounted via threaded holes and compatible accessories.
The 8050B is also designed for convenience with an auto power-on feature that activates the speaker when it detects an audio signal. If there's no signal for an hour, it goes into sleep mode—though you can turn this off if you prefer. Despite its powerful performance, the 8050B remains compact and efficient, offering superb sound resolution without taking up too much space.
For even deeper bass, consider pairing the 8050B with Genelec 7370 or 7071 subwoofers.
