Genelec - 8040 BPM (La Pièce)

The Genelec 8040 BPM is a high-quality, bi-amplified monitor speaker, ideal for professional studio environments. Designed to deliver precise sound reproduction and exceptional reliability, this speaker is the preferred choice of sound engineers and producers worldwide.

Technical specifications
Each Genelec 8040 BPM monitor is equipped with two amplifiers, each rated at 90W, dedicated respectively to the 17 cm woofer and the metal dome tweeter mounted on a DCW (Directivity Control Waveguide).
This bi-amplified configuration ensures clear and detailed sound reproduction across the entire frequency range, from 48 Hz to 20 kHz. The integrated ISS (Intelligent Signal Sensing) system enables intelligent power management, reducing energy consumption by automatically putting the speaker into standby mode when no audio signal is detected.

Design and performance
The 8040 BPM features an optimised port design and an internal volume calculated to maximise acoustic performance. Optimal directivity control ensures uniform sound dispersion, delivering a precise stereo image and a linear frequency response, which is essential for accurate mixing and mastering. Magnetic shielding ensures interference-free operation, even when used near sensitive equipment.

With a maximum sound pressure level (SPL) of 115 dB, the Genelec 8040 BPM is capable of delivering sufficient power for even the most demanding studio environments. The extended frequency response from 48 Hz to 20 kHz guarantees faithful reproduction of deep bass to crystal-clear treble, allowing you to capture every detail of your mix.

Set-up and accessories
The speaker comes with an Iso-Pod table stand, which allows for flexible positioning and reduces unwanted vibrations. It also includes a wall-mounting bracket for a secure and stable installation. For set-ups requiring mounting on a microphone stand, the 8040 BPM features a 3/8" threaded socket.

Aesthetics and finish
The anthracite grey version of the Genelec 8040 BPM offers a modern and elegant design, blending seamlessly into any studio environment. Its meticulous finish reflects Genelec’s exceptional build quality, recognised as the world’s leading brand for studio monitoring equipment.
