8040 BPM : Beast Monitors

3 years ago

Saved up for years in order to become the proud owner of what I consider to be some of the best near-field studio monitors ever.

After managing for years on very budget-friendly monitors, I was determined to invest in professional room acoustics and some decent monitors for my work.

The level of detail and the stereo imaging in these will blow your mind when used in a well treated acoustic environment. They are crystal clear. Not harsh. Super wide sweet spot. Tight clear bass response moves the air in front of your tummy and makes you grin like an idiot.

The sound just sort of materialises in front of your face - you can't tell how far away the speakers are or their exact position.

I've listened to a fair number of monitors from various high-end brands - in treated rooms/studios and yet I am still drawn to the sound of Genelec monitors.

Definitely recommended for anyone serious about production or listening in a treated acoustic environment.

Built like tanks - these monitors handle everything you can throw at them ;)
