Default Genelec S30 monitors as nearfileds?

How about 4" of Thermafiber on the wall behind your monitor position? Itll
even it right out...

$48 for a 8 banger of 2x4 panels here in Norfolk.

A little burlap and spray glue and you are in bass absorption heaven.

maybe

Scott, I don't think I have ever seen you show your cards like this!

I like the S30's too. I think they are the only Genelecs I enjoy working
on.


The new 8000-series aren't bad. They still sound like monkey boxes, but
they are a very big step up from the older series. What is interesting
is that they are all pretty much voiced the same, whereas the older series
had a huge range of tonal differences across the line.

The S30 has a far, far less colored midrange than any of their other line,
and really less colored than any horn or dome tweeter box I have heard.

I would love to bring my BM6a's over your place....


Give me another couple of years to deal with the room issues first. It's
still not right here. Admittedly the rear lobes on the maggies are making
the room problems worse.
