Design Without Boundaries

Redefining the Limits of Audio. In Genelec’s quest to make the best even better, our challenge was to break new boundaries in audio engineering. The 8351 represents bold and imaginative thinking in form and function.

At the center of the 8351 enclosure is Genelec’s Minimum Diffraction Coaxial Midrange – Tweeter driver coupled to an advanced Directivity Control Wave-guide™. Hidden behind the waveguide are two Acoustically Concealed Woofers (ACW™). In this arrangement the vertical directivity resembles that of a monitor more than twice its size.

The 8351 is also a member of the Genelec SAM family of products. The added flexibility, system integration capabilities and AutoCal optimization performance make the 8351 an invaluable tool in any professional audio application.

The total combination of drivers, amplifiers, and enclosure design can only be described as the most solid, articulate performing monitor available today, anywhere – in a compact package.
