General

The 8020 CPM by Genelec is one of the smallest studio monitors from the Finnish brand. Don't let that fool you into thinking the sound is small or thin though! Numerous studio technicians and producers have already become acquainted with the predecessors of the Genelec 8020 CPM. The compact housing of die-cast aluminium contains a 4-inch woofer and a 3/4-inch tweeter, which work to fill home studios and smaller listening rooms with powerful sound. It's possible to reach a maximum sound pressure of 95 dB, and distortion is virtually non-existent.

 

Genelec 8020 CPM: small, powerful, economical

 

This small monitor is bi-amplified, and dedicates 20 watts of power to both the woofer and the tweeter. Thanks to the rugged Iso-Pod construction, you can place it on any studio desk, table or even on the floor, and still have isolated, vibration-free audio. Furthermore, the low weight (not even 4 kg) and compact dimensions make the 8020 CPM a perfect choice for mobile setups. Finally, there is also a standby function built in that will be activated when the speaker hasn't been used for an hour, which is great for both the environment and your energy bill. Small yet resolute, and with Genelec quality - that's the 8020 CPM!

Wrote the following about Genelec 8020 CPM active studio monitor (per piece)
Nice compact speakers. Very clear in the higher ranges, and the bass is good considering the size. Bass and treble tilt options on the back are useful for room adjustments.
