Best value:
Poor
At first glance it's tough, bi-amplification, XLR, controls on the rear panel, flawless finish and then they are Genelec, the short gear Pro what. I still use them (despite me) home studio to mix my own productions, mostly electronics.
SOUNDS
Starting from film music to pop to rock, electro, techno, .. BAR and my analog synths, sound as a whole is fairly neutral and little or no real color. Nevertheless, I find their lack of clarity and brilliance? Some also say that the medium is aggressive and others say it's downright "dug". What is certain is that there is something that also bothers me in the mid / high range. Low lacking natural care anything below 50Hz. As for mixing, this is where it gets complicated .. It's simple, I do not like and I take no pleasure to mix it. In most cases, it takes me forever to come up with something that sounds good. Especially when using a large number of items, it quickly becomes a soup. The accuracy is average, but also beautiful dynamic stereo however. As for depth, goodbye ...
NOTICE GLOBAL
In summary, I expected a lot more from Genelec at least for model I déconseil which for me is not worth its price. Maybe he should get in the end to have a better product or hang a Neve or SSL to derive full satisfaction?
Before harvesting some of lightning, I want to clarify that I am in music for twenty years and this is a personal opinion and that is only my opinion. Thank you.
