General description
The Genelec M030 and M040 are compact two
way active monitoring loudspeakers designed for
near field monitoring. They contain drivers, power
amplifiers, active crossover filters and protection
circuitry.
The Natural Composite Enclosure™ (NCE™) of
the M Series loudspeakers is made out of natu-
ral fiber composite material. Half of the material is
wood fiber. The enclosure is shaped to reduce edge
diffraction and includes the advanced Directivity
Control Waveguide
TM
(DCW
TM
). This design provides
excellent frequency balance also in difficult acoustic
environments.
Connections
Turn the loudspeakers off before connecting them
to the signal source. The power switch is located
on the back panel (see Figure 2). Connect the loud-
speaker to a mains connection with the supplied
mains cable. Both M030 and M040 are equipped
with an automatic voltage selection feature, which
allows connecting them to mains voltages between
100 and 230 Volts, with a tolerance of ±10%.
Audio input is via a balanced XLR or 1/4“ TRS
phone jack (combination connector) or an RCA con-
nector. Never connect the loudspeakers to the loud-
speaker outputs of a power amplifier or an integrated
amplifier or receiver.
