The renowned Finish active monitor brand is thrilled to launch the Genelec 4430: a two-way active installation loudspeaker which incorporates the brands Smart IP technology. What is Smart IP we hear you thinking… Well, it’s combining sound quality with single CAT cable convenience. This offers integrators a very practical, flexible and cost-effective way of installation.

Power to the speaker and installer

Genelec has created this Smart IP solution to help save professional audio system designers, integrators and installers valuable time, without sacrificing on the audio quality part. Now they can take on bigger projects. A single CAT cable delivers power, speaker management and AoIP using Dante of AES67 networking. With the Genelec Smart IP Manager Software, setup is a blaze. Call it both powerful and intuitive. You can manage all Smart IP active monitors from a single screen. The system management allows you to divide your system into more rooms then you will ever need, zones, speakers or audio channels.

Publisher

Marco Lisi is the publisher of Best of High End, part of AV Concepts BV. His path into audio started early: as a teenager he was drawn into the world of free radio, presenting shows and living immersed in music every day. In his early twenties he ran his own production studio for five years, creating jingles and commercials — hands-on training in sound design, pro-audio workflows, and critical listening through studio monitors that still shapes how he evaluates gear today. He also spent years DJing in clubs before moving into publishing, first at two earlier online magazines before founding Best of High End. His hi-fi and home cinema passion was inherited from his father, an inveterate system-swapper. Marco's first setup — a confirmation gift — paired AKAI separates with entry-level Bowers & Wilkins speakers, a brand he stayed loyal to for years as his system grew from stereo into full surround and home cinema. Like many enthusiasts, he went through an extended "audiophile" phase chasing the next upgrade, before settling into a more grounded view: gear as a means to enjoy music and film, not an end in itself. Years of critical listening have given him a well-trained ear — the ability to characterize a system or pinpoint a change in the chain quickly and accurately. Just as important, his teaching background (a Belgian "regent" degree in Dutch language) gives him the tools to translate those listening impressions into clear, readable writing.
