My opinion is that it needs to be well regulated and should not hesitate to cut the bass with tilt switches on the rear of the enclosure for use in the studio. They are so precise that I listen to all my music on the 6010A/5040A now. I discovered sound effects, instruments or sounds that I had never noticed before, even on songs I've listened to thousands of times.
Otherwise, high volume, I do not perceive any distortion. At low volume the acute sound very focused, and the speakers need to be oriented correctly.
To dissect the music, they are ideal. 1dB variation on any frequency point.
OVERALL OPINION
It's been 2 1/2 years that I use with great pleasure, and I am now motivated to invest in larger (at least 8040). For those who want a precision micro surgical sound, Genelec are ideal. For those who want to equip their studio, it is better to model larger, but as entry-level professional it's tough!See less71- Bertrand DuvelPublished on 12/29/09 at 11:19 (This content has been automatically translated from French)<ul class="ul">

For what purpose? Apartment, to hear a balanced sound without too much noise quality = no problems between neighbors.

SOUNDS

The frequency curve is sufficiently neutral? Impressive, even at low, it's amazing for the size.
The stereo image is good? Yes
The sound is clear and precise across the spectrum? Yes ... A subwoofer can be added if there is willingness to hear the sub bass, but for me it loses the interest of the concept in these cases.
