METalliance founding member and multi-award-winning engineer/producer George Massenburg stated, “I’ve used many monitors of all types and brands in my professional career. I started using Genelecs for critical listening some time ago, maybe about 25 years ago or so, and have depended on them for consistency and accuracy ever since.”
Sylvia Massy was first introduced to Genelec at LA’s Larrabee Sound, where she used Genelec 1038A monitors – recalling them as “the best main speakers I’d ever heard before. Quality sound is revealed in the details, that is why METalliance and Genelec make perfect partners.”
METalliance founding member and music producer/engineer/mixer Frank Filipetti added, “My first Grammy Awards came when I started mixing on Genelecs. Over the years, their speakers have always featured award-winning accuracy, consistency and dependability.”
