Genelec 9320A

UNIO: A New Way to Unify Room and Headphone Listening in the Genelec Range

With UNIO, Genelec aims to solve a very practical everyday problem: maintaining reliable reference points when switching from a control room equipped with monitoring speakers to headphone listening, then to another workspace. The 9320A serves as a central element of this ecosystem by combining a monitoring controller, a reference-quality headphone output, and a control surface for Genelec's adaptive technologies. The goal is simple: to make monitoring more consistent, faster to set up, and more reproducible-from stereo to immersive-regardless of where you set up your session.

Who the Genelec UNIO 9320A Is For

The Genelec UNIO 9320A targets audio professionals and demanding creators who alternate between multiple listening contexts: sound engineers in studios, mixers and sound editors in post-production, sound designers, musicians in well-equipped home studios, or teams working on temporary setups while on the move. It is especially suitable for those who need immediate physical control (rather than relying solely on a mouse), while seeking credible headphone listening to make decisions about balance, dynamics, and stereo imaging when room monitoring is not possible.

Key Features: Tactile Control, Calibration, and Immersive Headphone Listening

A Reliable Workflow Between Speakers and Headphones

The 9320A is designed to smooth the transition between room monitoring and headphone monitoring without breaking your concentration. Its connectivity allows management of up to two stereo monitoring systems and one headphone, facilitating A/B comparisons (for example, a main pair and a secondary nearfield pair) while maintaining a dedicated headphone output for editing, fine checking, or mobile work phases.

Level Calibration According to EBU R128

For environments where level consistency is essential (broadcast, post-production, collaborative work, recurring sessions), the 9320A supports monitoring level calibration in compliance with EBU R128. This helps stabilize listening habits and avoid biased decisions caused by volume variations from one session to another, especially when changing rooms or systems.

Tactile Control of GLM Functions

By integrating tactile control of important functions of the Genelec Loudspeaker Manager (GLM), the 9320A puts critical monitoring actions at your fingertips. The daily benefit is reducing software manipulations during recording, editing, or mixing, and maintaining a single, consistent control point for your listening-even when the setup becomes more complex.

Aural ID and Immersive Binaural Listening (Optional)

The 9320A opens access to multichannel and immersive binaural headphone monitoring setups. The Aural ID technology (not included) allows use of a personal HRTF profile created by Genelec, enabling a more individualized perception of the sound space over headphones. This is an asset for previewing spatialization decisions, verifying placements, or maintaining a consistent workflow when room listening is unavailable.
