Genelec


Since 1978 Genelec has developed high quality studio monitors and active speaker systems. Over the years and based on customer requirements, Genelec R&D team’s technical ambition has led to several innovative technologies and revolutionary designs which have refined every product to set a benchmark in the industry. Maintaining a wide product offering has given Genelec challenges and ultimately a lot of experience. Every Genelec customer benefits from this experience by having precision tools to rely on. Genelec products are designed for demanding professional, home and AV installation use. They reveal the original nuances of the sound, without leaving anything out nor adding anything to the signal in any stage of the production. Genelec products are made to last, with pride and care by our own production staff in Finland. Many of our very first products are still in active use and we continue our strong commitment to provide service and spare parts for all products for at least five years after their discontinuation, in many cases much longer.
Comprising three warehouses with a total footprint of over 110,000 square feet, the RØDE state-of-the-art plant has over 60 million dollars in precision machinery and an international team of more than 250 people across highly skilled disciplines: electronics engineering, industrial design, technical engineering, robotics, audio and acoustics engineering, metal production, toolmaking, injection-mould technology, logistics, assembly, quality control, finance, marketing and sales.
