Chosen for their linearity and versatile way to use mix, listening, sound conditions for establishing the most radical.
Amplifier.

SOUNDS

The frequency curve is particularly neutral and fair, nothing is sticking.
That may be the question of the dynamics that this place is the more surprising on a good sound, transients guitar, percussion pulse, the slightest bowing are reproduced with such speed that the instrument seems to face us.
The stereo imaging is highly accurate as long as their positioning in the listening room is optimal. The slightest movement of a sound source is perceived immediately.

OVERALL OPINION

I use these speakers in the studio for 10 years as the primary monitor.
These are my first "real" studio monitors and I'm thrilled!

+ Very neutral
35Hz to 20kHz + for real!
+ Versatile
+ Amp and integrated protection, we can not burn out.
+ No ear fatigue
+ Indestructible (10 years and have not moved)

- Kind of expensive, kind of expensive, kind of expensive. Use only pro
- Too neutral? "Genelec, the sound coming from the cold"
- No ear fatigue, you have to watch out for too long sessions.
- Require a Mix-B (a pair of NS10 will do nicely)
