PowerPak
Genelec 8030.LSE PowerPak™
System
Continuing the tradition of providing well fac-
tored active monitoring products, Genelec
introduces the 8030.LSE PowerPak™, a
new comprehensive multi-channel monitoring
system specifically designed for post-production
suites and recording studios with control rooms
measuring less than 85 m3 (3000 cubic feet) (W
x D x H). The 8030.LSE PowerPak™ system is
a perfectly tailored solution and simplifies the
process of creating a new multi-channel moni-
toring system or upgrading an existing stereo
monitoring environment to 5.1 surround.
The 8030.LSE PowerPak™ system consists
of five Genelec 8030A two-way, bi-amplified
active monitors, one Genelec 7060A LSE™
Series Active Subwoofer, and a Genelec
Acousti/Tape™ frequency/wavelength mea-
suring tape. In addition, a Genelec 8030.LSE
PowerPak setup guide is included for accurate
speaker placement, wiring and fine-tuning.
The cornerstone of the system is Genelec’s
revolutionary 7060A LSE™ Series Active
Subwoofer which employs Genelec’s propri-
etary Laminar Spiral Enclosure™ (LSE™)
technology. Designed for multi-channel pro-
fessional surround sound monitoring envi-

ronments, the LSE™ 7060A subwoofer
features a single 10” proprietary driver with
a 120 Watt power amplifier, a frequency
response of 29 Hz to 85 Hz (120 Hz) +/-3
dB, and has the ability to deliver an SPL of
108 dB at 1 meter. In addition, the 7060A
boasts Genelec’s new 6.1 bass management
system, which has six signal input and output
channels (L/C/R Front and L/C/R Rear), as
well as a discrete LFE signal input with a
selectable 85/120 Hz low-pass filter and a
summed signal output, providing flexibility and
easy connection.
The built-in bass management unit splits the
six main channel input signals into low and high
frequency components, accurately dividing the
input signal between the subwoofer and main
speakers. A dedicated LFE In input connector
enables easy set-up and accurate monitoring of
the LFE channel in 5.1 and 6.1 digital surround
sound systems.
The system also includes five Genelec
8030A two-way, bi-amplified active monitors.
The 8030A is a compact close-field system
featuring Genelec’s proprietary Minimum Dif-
fraction Enclosure™ (MDE™). The rounded
corners and continuously curving forms of the
enclosure blend seamlessly into the improved
Directivity Control Waveguide™ (DCW™),
effectively reducing diffraction and improving
imaging. Powered by a pair of 40 Watt ampli-
fiers, the Genelec 8030A monitors offer a
wide frequency response of 58 Hz to 20 kHz
(+/-2.0 dB) from a 5” woofer and 3/4” hard-domed
tweeter. In addition to low harmonic distortion,
the 8030A also offers rear panel bass and
treble tilt room response controls. The MDE™
enclosure of the Genelec 8030A active moni-
tors is made of die cast aluminum, featuring
rugged construction while also providing effi-
cient heat dissipation capability and shielding
against RF interference. Each speaker is also
magnetically shielded for additional protection
when used in close proximity to video monitors.
The Iso-Pod™ table stand delivered with each
8030A has adjustable tilt so that the acoustical
axis can be pointed precisely towards the lis-
tener for best sound reproduction. The isolation
feature prevents colouration caused by conduc-
tion of unwanted vibration to the mixing console
or other mounting surface.
The 8030.LSE PowerPak™ once properly
set up will provide an accurate and stable rep-
resentation of any multichannel audio signal,
yet its compact size makes it applicable to
almost any listening environment.
