NATICK, MA, June 11, 2009 — Finland-based
Genelec Oy, the world-leading manufacturer of Active Monitoring loudspeakers,
has launched an online community on its website. The Genelec Community
at www.community.genelec.com
is aimed at all Genelec users and other audio enthusiasts who want to
get in touch with fellow users and fans for discussion and to share
experiences with the products and studio work in general. Online since
April 1st, the community has already reached over 800 members and is
growing rapidly.
Recently Genelec also started a video competition where
people can enter to win a 5.1 surround system of 6010A & 5040A Active
Loudspeakers. The competition is open to everyone who has registered
to the Community. More details about terms and conditions are available
inside the Community.
The Genelec Community features monthly user stories and
technology tips, as well as a newsletter posted to all registered users.
The site also features a discussion forum where users can post their
experiences and questions with a direct link to the manufacturer.
“We wanted to create a place for all the Genelec
people around the world, where they can share experiences and benefit
from the knowledge of fellow users in a modern and efficient way”,
says Terho Savolainen, Marketing Manager of Genelec Oy. “Now all
of our users and fans have a place for direct contact to the Genelec’s
support and an easy way to use it. Sharing experiences with other users
about the products and getting advice on room acoustics, speaker placement
or any other problems people might have with our products is now much
more convenient than before.”
Future development of the Community depends chiefly on
its membership. “This is only the first step in improving the
cooperation between the manufacturer and our end users. We are working
on new ideas all the time and are of course welcoming any suggestions
from our worldwide user base,” Savolainen continues. “Most
of our customers are spending a lot of time on the Internet, so that
is where we want to be as well.”
The Genelec Community is available online at www.community.genelec.com.

Genelec, the pioneer in Active Monitoring technology,
is celebrating over 30 years of designing and manufacturing active loudspeakers
for true and accurate sound reproduction. Genelec is credited with promoting
the concept of active transducer technology, which many manufacturers
are just now incorporating into their products. Since its inception
in 1978, Genelec has concentrated its efforts and resources into creating
active monitors with unparalleled sonic integrity. The result is an
active speaker system that has earned global acclaim for its accurate
imaging, extremely high acoustic output from small enclosures, true
high-fidelity with low distortion, and deep, rich bass.
