Group delay
The latency at high frequencies from the input to the acoustic output, measured in the analog input:
Extended Phase Linearity in GLM set to OFF (top graph) 3.1 ms
Extended Phase Linearity in GLM set to ON (bottom graph) 7.5 ms
In Genelec performance graphics, the time of converting the from an electronic input signal to the acoustic output in a Genelec monitor is described by two factors – latency and group delay. The group delay factor can be read in the graphics for a specific frequency. The total frequency-specific input-to-output delay is a sum of the latency and group delay factors. To understand the significance of this total delay, consider that moving a loudspeaker away by 1 meter creates an additional delay of about 3 ms.

Uncoloured precision
The upgraded 8351B now offers increased SPL, additional room compensation EQs, equalised delay and enhanced HF response. Offering the same extraordinary imaging and uncoloured precision of its smaller 8331A and 8341A siblings, the 8351B provides even greater LF extension, while its higher maximum SPL enables longer listening distances.
Genelec 8351B with GLM calibration
Work faster, for longer
The 8351B promotes faster and more consistent decision making, but also allows you to work reliably on longer sessions - because unnatural imaging, a main contributor to listener fatigue, is minimised. And in conjunction with our GLM software, it will adapt to your space and compensate for detrimental room influences. From mono to immersive, you can be confident of producing mixes that will translate beautifully to other rooms and systems.
