The new Genelec 5040A is an extremely compact active
subwoofer designed to complement up to five 6010A's with accurate and
dynamic bass response reaching down to 35
Hz. Matched perfectly with the 6010A's, the 5040A conveniently features a remote
volume control allowing adjustment of the entire
sound system as well as versatile acoustic controls for perfect room integration.
Designed by Genelec's R&D team in co-operation with internationally acclaimed Finnish designer Harri Koskinen, the 5040A
subwoofer features an unobtrusive, modern appearance.
The 5040A features a magnetically shielded downward firing 6 1/2"
bass driver attached to a die-cast
aluminium base plate. The base plate also serves as the chassis for the 40
Watt amplifier and
crossover filter circuitry. The 5040A packs a respectable punch of 98
dB maximum
sound pressure level.
The built-in
crossover unit on the 5040A features six
RCA input connectors for five main channels and one LFE
channel and five
RCA output connectors for the 6010A loudspeakers. The main channels have a fixed
high pass filter to work with Genelec 6010A loudspeakers. In addition to the
RCA connectors, a 3.5 mm
stereo jack input connector is provided for convenient connection to portable
audio players or computers. Adjustable input
sensitivity in combination with adjustable
crossover phase allows a seamless integration between the
subwoofer and the 6010A loudspeakers.
