Genelec 9320 A SAM™ Reference Controller

As a professional monitor controller, calibration set, output interface, GLM remote and headphone amplifier, the 9320A integrates tightly with the Genelec UNIO Ecosystem to offer audio engineers seamless bridging of in-room and personal headphone monitoring – from stereo to immersive.

And now, with UNIO Personal Reference Monitoring (PRM), the 9320A can be combined with 8550A Professional Reference Headphones for total accuracy.

Working with any DAW and audio interface system, the 9320A puts flexible connectivity, a reference-grade headphone output and physical control of the Genelec Smart Active Monitoring (SAM), Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLM) and Aural ID Technology at your fingertips, so you can confidently access your studio reference anywhere, anytime – and rapidly create mixes that translate with maximal consistency.

How is the 9320A used?

For professional monitoring across fixed and mobile setups

The 9320A is the ideal audio monitoring multi-tool for engineers in stereo and immersive music studios, game audio studios, broadcasting, streaming and AV post-production.

Although at its best when used as part of the Genelec PRM solution alongside SAM Monitors and a computer running GLM and Aural ID software, the 9320A can also be used in independent mode without a computer – and provides support for all professional loudspeaker monitors and headphones.

Powered over its type-C USB data connection, the 9320A is compatible with any computer DAW. If power is not available from the computer, a separate USB type-C power input is available to use with a separate power source.

The audio bandwidth for all input/output combinations extends up to 46 kHz and offers a dynamic range exceeding 120 dB, THD+N lower than -110 dB and minimal input to output latency in the range 2 to 3.2 ms.

Aural ID adds binaural virtual monitoring

The Genelec uniquely tailor-made and accurate Aural ID Technology utilises your highly detailed personal HRTF to render virtual monitors over professional headphones – offering true-to-life access to the experience of in-room monitoring, from stereo to immersive.

In combination with the reference-grade headphone output of the 9320A, Aural ID provides the highest possible standard of spatially correct headphone monitoring.
