Genelec 8320 APM 4-stars Reviews
Perfect sound
Nothing to say about the audio quality, it's really impressive considering dimensions. You can also make it perfect with GLM3. My only doubt is about the supply : the power cable has some difficulty getting into the socket on the monitor (I think it is in a very uncomfortable place) , sometimes the monitor turns off and on again cause the cable is badly attached. I don't know if the problem is just my case or if others have this problem , but i have this problem with the right monitor since i bought them.
I still believe that it is a very high quality product.
Why there is not digital input?
The 8020-8320 is a little classic, overall when paired with a Genelec sub.
This monitor have an internal DAC and DSP that works, probably, at 48/24. I said probably cause Genelec don't said nothing about the DAC (?more accurate information is confidential?? ). In this model there is not digital input (AES) so the sound is converted D-A by your interface and again A-D-A by the 8320. This, to my opinion, is a non-sense. It would be enough to have also an analog input giving the possibility to the customer to choose (other brands have this option). For those interested in listening to their own DAC instead of the Genelec's ones there is on the market the old "classic line" without any converter that cost significantly less and sounds great. Instead of the GLM correction software there are many good alternatives.
