4010A 

Active Loudspeaker

General

The bi-amplified Genelec 4010A is an extremely 

compact two way active loudspeaker designed for 

fixed installations. It contains drivers, power ampli-

fiers, active crossover filters and protection circuitry. 

The 4010A is designed for indoor use only, in tem-

peratures between 15 to 35 degrees Celsius and 

relative humidity between 20 % and 90 %. 

The MDE™ (Minimum Diffraction Enclosure™) 

loudspeaker enclosure is made of die-cast alumin-

ium and shaped to reduce edge diffraction. Com-

bined with the advanced Directivity Control Wave-

guide

TM

 (DCW

TM

),  this  design  provides  excellent 

frequency balance in difficult acoustic environments.

Delivery contents

Each 4010A is supplied with a mains cable, a 3-pin 

connector for audio signal, a keyhole type wallmount 

and an operating manual. 

Connections

Connect the mains cables only after you have com-

pleted connecting audio signal cabling. 

Audio input is via a 10 kOhm balanced connec-

tor. The pin sequence of the connector is shown 

in Figure 2.  

Connect the signal cable to the 3-pole plug pro-

vided with the loudspeaker and secure the connec-

tions by tightening the screws on each pole. Push 

the plug into the connector on the loudspeaker.

Never connect the 4010A to the loudspeaker 

outputs of a power amplifier, integrated amplifier 

or receiver.

When  all  audio  connections  are  completed, 

connect the loudspeakers to mains with the sup-

plied mains cables. They will switch on automati-

cally. 

ISS

TM

 Autostart

The 4010A is equipped with Intelligent Signal Sens-

ingTM (ISS

TM

) Autostart function, which automati-

cally turns the amplifier to Standby mode if an input 

signal has not been detected for approximately 1 

hour. The power consumption in standby mode is 

typically less than 0.5 watts. The playback will au-

tomatically resume once an input signal is detected 

from the source.

There is a slight delay in the automatic power-

ing up. If this is undesirable, the ISS

TM

 function can 

be disabled by setting the “ISS DISABLE” switch 

on the back panel to “ON” position. In this mode, 

the loudspeaker is powered on and off using the 

power switch on the back panel. 

Sensitivity control

The input sensitivity (playback level) of the 4010A 

has two alternative settings, normal and -10 dB. 

The normal setting is factory default and the low-

er, -10 dB setting can be selected by turning the 

“SENSITIVITY -10 dB” switch on the back panel to 

“ON”. 

The output levels are 100 dB @ -6dBu and 90 

dB @ -6 dBu respectively. Choose the setting that
