Genelec 8010-330W L-Shape Table Stand for Vertical Mounting - White
The 8010-330 is Genelec's L-shape table stand for vertical mounting. It does two jobs that matter on a desk, raising the loudspeaker above table level and letting you point it properly at the listening position.
- Fewer table reflections: lifting the loudspeaker clear of the table surface reduces the reflections that come back off it, which is the usual cause of smeared detail on a desktop setup.
- Aim at the ears: the stand allows the loudspeaker to be aimed correctly at the listening position rather than firing past it.
- Tilt adjustment: 0 to 20 degrees of upward tilt.
- Sturdy build: a solid L-shape stand designed for vertical mounting of the loudspeaker.
- Compatible models: 8010, G One, 4010 and 4410.
Supplied as a single stand, so a stereo pair needs two.
Small monitors usually end up on a desk, and a desk is one of the least helpful surfaces you can put a loudspeaker on. The Genelec 8010-330 is the tidy answer to that, an L-shape table stand that raises the loudspeaker above table level and holds it there at the angle you want.
What raising the loudspeaker actually fixes
Sound leaving the front of the cabinet also travels down onto the table and comes straight back up towards you a fraction later. The result is a muddled midrange and an imaging picture that never quite settles. Getting the loudspeaker up off the surface improves acoustical performance by reducing those reflections from the table, which is the single cheapest improvement available to most desktop setups.
Getting the angle right
Height alone is not enough if the loudspeaker is still firing over your head or into your chest. The 8010-330 has a 0 to 20 degree upward tilt adjustment, so the loudspeaker can be aimed correctly at the listening position. Set it once, and the axis stays where you put it.
Fit and compatibility
This is the vertical mounting version, so the loudspeaker sits upright on the stand. Genelec list it as compatible with the 8010, the G One, the 4010 and the 4410, which covers the smallest monitors and installation speakers in the range. The stand is sturdy, and this listing is for a single unit, so order two if you are setting up a stereo pair.
Good to know
This is a stand only. The loudspeaker is not included.
