1. DESCRIPTION
The GENELEC 1034B monitor is designed
for neutral sound reproduction at high
SPLs in large control rooms. The system
comprises of a 160 litre cabinet and a 19"
7U rack mount amplifier unit.
The speaker cabinet contains two 305mm
(12") bass drivers, a 130mm (5")
midrange, and a 25mm (1") treble driver.
The midrange and treble drivers are
mounted in a Genelec Directivity Control
Waveguide (DCW) which can be rotated
through ±90° for either horizontal or verti-
cal mounting. The cabinet low frequency -
3dB point is at 32 Hz and the bass re-
sponse extends down to 27 Hz. The high
frequency response extends up to 22kHz
(-3dB).
Each amplifier unit contains a 3 channel
active crossover, driver overload protec-
tion circuits, and 4 separate power ampli-
fiers producing 2 x 400W, 350W and
120W of short term power in the bass,
midrange, and treble channels respec-
tively. The crossover filter incorporates
tone controls to enable the user to accu-
rately match the speaker to the local
acoustic environment.

single system. A pair is shipped in a
single box, containing two cabinets, two
amplifier units, two mains connecting
cables, two LED connecting cables, two
loudspeaker connecting cables and one
Allen key. (See Fig 1)
Before installing the system, check all
items for damage and omissions. If there
are any damaged products, contact
directly the distributor and insurance
agent. If there are any missing compo-
nents, contact your local dealer or
GENELEC.
2.2 AMPLIFIER POSITIONING
The Genelec 1034B amplifier electronics
are encased in two standard 19" 7U rack
cases. The unit should be well ventilated
to prevent excessive overheating, there
must be a supply of air to the front and
rear of the amplifier unit. If the system
overheats it will stop operating until a safe
temperature is reached.
Make sure that the amplifier is positioned
so that the speaker connecting cables will
reach. Longer cable lengths can be or-
dered from GENELEC upon special re-
quest. A space 100 mm (4") deep should
be left behind the rear panel of the ampli-
fier unit to allow for the cable connectors.
Check that the amplifier unit is wired to
the correct mains voltage for your power
supply. The correct mains voltage for the
amplifier unit is shown at the bottom of the
sticker on the rear panel of the amplifier
unit.

2.3 LOUDSPEAKER POSITIONING
The 1034B control room monitor is de-
signed to be flush mounted in either the
vertical or horizontal configuration. The
DCW should be rotated so that the treble
and midrange drivers align vertically. This
ensures that optimum stereo symmetry is
obtained.
IMPORTANT-The DCW plate is heavy,
care must therefore be taken when re-
moving and replacing the DCW. To rotate
the DCW plate, proceed as follows:
• Place the speaker in its intended lis-
tening orientation.
• Unscrew the eight M5 fixing screws on
the edges of the plate using the 4mm
Allen key provided with the system.
• Carefully pull the plate a small distance
away from the cabinet.
• Rotate the DCW so that the midrange
and treble drivers are aligned vertically
(treble driver on top) and remount the
DCW plate reversing the procedure
above.
