When working in a small project studio, most, if not all the mixing tends to be done using small, near‑field monitors, but few of these are accurate enough to produce reliable mixes. Genelec's recently launched 1030A active monitor loudspeaker could change all that; although it measures just 312 x 200 x 240mm, it has a very respectable bass response, and produces the type of detailed sound we've come to associate with Genelec.
Genelec's DCW Directivity Controlled Waveguide technology (distinguished by a dish‑shaped tweeter baffle) lends identity to an otherwise conventional appearance. The baffle controls the dispersion pattern of the speaker, directing more of the sound toward the listener — the aim being to make the speaker more tolerant of imperfect room acoustics.
The active crossovers and power amplifiers are built into the rear of the cabinets, and include DIL switch controls to help match the speakers to the room in which they are used. There are three sets in all: Treble Tilt, Bass Tilt, and Bass Roll‑off. All provide four settings, one of which is flat. The Treble Tilt provides shelving lift or cut above 4kHz, while the Bass Tilt switch brings in a shelving cut a little below 600Hz. The Bass Roll‑off provides varying degrees of roll‑off below 100Hz.
Also on the rear of the cabinet are the mains input, power switch and fuse, a balanced XLR for the line‑level input, and a recessed trimmer to adjust the input sensitivity by plus or minus 6dB. The mains power may be switched for 115V or 230V operation.
