#5 Genelec G One: $900 per pair Estimated B&H Photo Video eBay
Same family: the Genelec G Two (larger bookshelf, rated 4.3/5), the Genelec G Three (larger bookshelf, estimated 4.5/5), the Genelec G Four (larger bookshelf, estimated 4.2/5) and the Genelec G Five (larger bookshelf, estimated 4.3/5).
Pros: The smallest model in Genelec’s home G Series, built on the same 3” woofer, metal-dome tweeter and Directivity Control Waveguide as the 8010A studio monitor, in a die-cast aluminum cabinet. The waveguide keeps the treble consistent off axis, so it sounds balanced on a desk even when you aren’t sitting dead center. Each speaker has its own 25W bass and 25W treble amplifiers, an RCA input, auto standby and an Iso-Pod stand that tilts it toward your ears.
Cons: No independent measurements yet, so its tonal balance and directivity can’t be compared directly with measured speakers; the rating is estimated from the measured 8010A it is based on. Bass stops at 74Hz (±2.5dB), so music and movies need a subwoofer for any real low end, and output is limited to 96dB short-term, enough for a desk but not a living room.
