Genelec 8040BWM 2-Way 180W Active Studio Monitor (Single, White)

Professional studio monitoring in a compact white finish
The Genelec 8040BWM is a bi-amplified 2-way active studio monitor designed to deliver transparent, reliable sound in studio environments where space and precision are critical. Finished in white, this monitor combines clean Scandinavian design with Genelec’s respected performance standards, making it ideal for control rooms, editing suites, and production spaces where visual aesthetic matters as much as sonic clarity.

Balanced power and extended frequency response
Equipped with a 6.5" woofer powered by a 90W amplifier and a 3/4" metal-dome tweeter also driven by a dedicated 90W amp, the 8040BWM produces a detailed frequency response from 45 Hz to 21 kHz. This low-end extension is supported by a rear-firing bass reflex port, enhancing accuracy without muddying the signal. Whether you're mixing critical dialogue, music, or effects, the 8040BWM provides a balanced and truthful playback experience.

Precision imaging with proprietary waveguide technology
Genelec's Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW) is integrated into the design, widening the listening area and delivering consistent off-axis response. This ensures you get consistent imaging and frequency response across your workspace, which is critical in mix environments with multiple listeners or off-center monitoring positions.

Room tuning and connectivity built in
The monitor includes manual high- and low-frequency adjustment switches on the rear panel, allowing you to fine-tune the speaker’s output to suit your acoustic environment. A balanced XLR input ensures compatibility with professional audio interfaces, consoles, or monitor controllers. Input sensitivity adjustment is also available, making the monitor flexible in both digital and analog setups.

Compact aluminum enclosure with optimized acoustics
The die-cast aluminum enclosure is not only rugged but designed for minimal diffraction. Its curved edges and non-parallel walls reduce unwanted reflections, maintaining the clarity and neutrality of the sound. The white finish gives it a clean look suitable for modern control rooms, post suites, or any space with a bright design palette.

Flexible installation with isolation included
Genelec includes the Iso-Pod isolation stand with the 8040BWM, which allows you to angle the monitor precisely and reduce vibration transfer from surfaces. Threaded rear mounting points offer compatibility with OmniMount and K&M brackets, allowing for wall, ceiling, or custom rig mounting in compact studio spaces.
