The Genelec 4040ARW is a flagship two-way active installation loudspeaker from the renowned 4000 Series, designed for larger fixed audio installations where exceptional sound quality, elevated playback levels, and extended low-frequency response are essential. Perfect for professional AV environments like large theaters, restaurants, conference rooms, museums, art galleries, and sports centers, this loudspeaker combines cutting-edge audio engineering with a sleek, durable design.
Crafted with a robust die-cast aluminum Minimum Diffraction Enclosure (MDE), the 4040ARW minimizes edge diffraction for pristine sound reproduction. Its raw aluminum finish (denoted by "RW") offers a minimalist, natural aesthetic while ensuring long-lasting durability. A rear Bass Reflex port enhances the low-end performance, complementing the 6.5-inch woofer (powered by a 120W Class D amplifier) for deep, controlled bass and the 0.75-inch metal dome tweeter (also with a dedicated 120W amplifier) for crisp, detailed highs. With a total amplification of 240W, this speaker achieves a maximum 109 dB SPL at 1 meter, filling larger spaces with powerful, distortion-free audio.

The 4040ARW boasts a frequency response of 55 Hz - 20 kHz (±3 dB), extending to 50 Hz - 25 kHz (±6 dB), delivering a broad, balanced sonic spectrum. Genelec’s patented Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW) enhances dispersion, ensuring consistent sound quality even in challenging acoustics. The active crossover, operating at 1.8 kHz, seamlessly integrates the drivers for cohesive output. Additional adjustments include bass tuning (0 to -4 dB) and treble boost (+2 dB) for room-specific optimization.
Featuring Intelligent Signal Sensing (ISS), the speaker switches to a low-power standby mode (0.5W) when idle, meeting ErP 2013 Directive standards. It accepts input via a balanced Phoenix/Euroblock connector (10 kΩ impedance) with a -10 dB pad option. The 4040ARW operates on 230V AC and includes predisposed mounting points for wall brackets and VESA standards, with dimensions of 350 mm x 237 mm x 223 mm and a weight of 9.9 kg.
The raw aluminum finish and installation-friendly design make it a premium choice for upscale venues where aesthetics and performance must harmonize. Whether for impactful sound in public spaces or precision audio in commercial settings, the Genelec 4040ARW sets a benchmark in professional audio solutions.
