Genelec 8350APM
Product information "Genelec 8350APM"
The Genelec 8350 is an active studio monitor from the SAM series (Smart Active Monitor). SAM means the speaker can adapt to the room acoustics. This is done using a measurement microphone at the listening position together with the GLM software (Genelec Loudspeaker Manager). The software uses the speakers' DSP filters to reduce the room's adverse influences.
There are 20 filters available, which can also be adjusted manually. Especially in rooms with challenging acoustics, the monitoring conditions can be significantly improved.
The high resolution and transparency of reproduction guarantee relaxed analytical listening. Automatic level matching and time alignment simplify the setup of surround and 3D audio configurations.
The enclosure of the Genelec 8350 is made from aluminium die-cast. It is robust and offers a large internal volume. Thanks to bass-reflex technology the speaker produces deep-reaching bass despite its compact dimensions. The rounded cabinet edges improve localisation and spatial imaging. The waveguide ensures linear dispersion and a wide listening area.

Genelec at session – Hear what’s really in the signal
Genelec is one of those brands you hear once – and then immediately understand why their speakers sit in so many studios worldwide. Since 1978 the Finnish manufacturer has developed and produced active studio monitors and subwoofers that stand for one thing above all: honest, precise listening without flattering the sound. That's exactly the basis for good decisions in recording, mixing and mastering.
What makes Genelec so special is the combination of clever engineering and absolutely reliable practical usability. The active systems are perfectly matched, deliver enormous resolution of detail, a stable stereo image and remain pleasant to listen to even during long sessions. Many models also offer DSP-assisted room adaptation and calibration – super useful when the room isn’t perfect or you want to work flexibly.
In short: Genelec is monitoring you can trust. Whether for a home studio, a professional control room or mobile setups – if you want to know what’s really in the signal, you’re in the right place. And that’s exactly why we at session love to stock Genelec.
