Trusted musician and artist reviews for Genelec 8040A Studio Monitor Speaker
Based on 9 Reviews

Good near field monitors
Nice monitors for home or small studio use. In a bigger studio you need a subwoofer for them but still a good sound to mix from

Clean
I really prefer the sound of the Genelec 8040's. It's really clean and honest.

Best monitors i've ever had
The Genelec 8040's are significantly flat, yet the sound is incredibly precise, and it feels like everyday is a totally new experience whether i begin on a new project, or continue where i left off.
It helps me keeping my mixdown flow as "boring" as possible, and personally i think that the 8040's have done the best job keeping it that way for me.
It's gonna take a wonder for me to change new monitors from these.

The best I can get!
After a period of much reading about and listening to monitor speakers, these are the winners! Second place on my list is: Dynaudio BM12 mk3
Studio monitor test!!
Those Genelec monitors are quite great, but if You want to know, how it will work in home studio - read this awesome study http://sonarworks.com/2014/08/studio-monitor-test-2014-08/ I like the scientific approach of this review. Definitely worth a look, before the decision!
Powerhouse
I use this set for overall pump and making sure the low end is where it need to be. Translates nicely in my room with the KRK6000's and NS10's
