GENELEC · ADAPTIVE WOOFER SYSTEM

W371A

A dual-woofer Smart Active system designed to work with The Ones monitors to control low-frequency directivity and reduce room interaction.

WHY IT EXISTS
This is an adaptive woofer system, not a conventional LFE product.

W371A is designed to sit beneath selected Genelec The Ones monitors and extend the system into a full-range, controlled-directivity solution.

Its most interesting cinema implication is not simply more bass; it is the ability to shape how low-frequency energy couples to the room around the main channels.

SYSTEM ROLE

Where it fits in a cinema.

01

Full-range LCR

Pairs with 8341A, 8351B and 8361A monitors.

02

Directivity control

Targets room interaction in the low-frequency region.

03

GLM ecosystem

Operates as part of the same calibrated SAM network.

ROOM DESIGN
Choose the room conditions before choosing the quantity.
PlacementThe monitor/woofer geometry should be treated as one loudspeaker system.
Room interactionUse the adaptive modes to solve a measured problem rather than simply choosing the most complex option.
LFE integrationW371A forms part of the monitor system; the dedicated LFE system remains a separate cinema-design decision.
