Genelec 8030CMM Compact 2‑Way Active Nearfield Monitor (Single, Matte Black)

Genelec 8030CMM Compact 2‑Way Active Nearfield Monitor (Single, Matte Black)The Genelec 8030CMM Studio Monitor (black finish) is a compact yet powerful nearfield speaker designed for accurate reference mixing in small to mid sized studios. It sits in the sweet spot between the smaller 8010 and 8020 models by offering higher SPL (104 dB short term, 110 dB peak) and deeper bass extension down to 47 Hz ( 6 dB), while maintaining Genelecs signature clarity and detail.

The Genelec 8030CMM Studio Monitor (black finish) is a compact yet powerful nearfield speaker designed for accurate reference mixing in small to mid-sized studios. It sits in the sweet spot between the smaller 8010 and 8020 models by offering higher SPL (≥104 dB short term, ≥110 dB peak) and deeper bass extension down to 47 Hz (-6 dB), while maintaining Genelec’s signature clarity and detail. Its die-cast aluminium enclosure with Reflex Port Design houses a 130 mm bass driver and a 19 mm metal dome tweeter, each powered by dedicated 50 W Class D amplifiers for high-efficiency performance.

The 8030CMM features Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW™) for wide, controlled dispersion and consistent imaging, both on- and off-axis. Its Minimum Diffraction Enclosure (MDE™) ensures uncoloured sound, and the included Iso-Pod™ stand helps isolate the speaker from surfaces while allowing angle adjustments. With rear panel room response switches, users can tailor the monitor’s performance to different acoustic environments, making it ideal for professional mixing, editing, or post-production work.

Connectivity is straightforward with a single balanced XLR input, and intelligent energy-saving features like Intelligent Signal Sensing (ISS™) help reduce power consumption when idle. Compact in size (H 299 x W 189 x D 178 mm with Iso-Pod™) and weighing just 5 kg, the 8030CMM delivers serious monitoring performance without dominating your workspace.

Features

• Compact with High Output: Delivers big-monitor sound in a small footprint with higher SPL and bass response than 8010/8020 models.
• Detailed and Accurate Listening: Frequency response from 54 Hz to 20 kHz (±2 dB) ensures clean, uncoloured sound that translates across systems.
• Smart Acoustic Tuning: Rear panel switches allow you to adapt the monitor to your room for reliable mixing in varied spaces.
• Precision Waveguide Design: Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW™) ensures consistent imaging both on and off axis.
• Built-in Active Crossovers: Integrated amplifiers and crossovers provide phase-accurate playback without the need for external gear.
• Smart Power Efficiency: ISS™ technology minimizes energy consumption by putting the monitor into standby when not in use.
• Durable and Sleek Design: Die-cast aluminium enclosure in matte black finish is acoustically optimized and built for studio durability.
• Iso-Pod™ Included: Built-in isolation stand improves stability and helps reduce vibration on your desk or stand.
• Flexible Mounting Options: Supports a wide range of accessories for wall, ceiling, table, and truss mounting.
• Included in the Box: Comes with one 8030CMM monitor, Iso-Pod kit, mains cable, and operating manual.
