The 1236's frequency response extends from 17 Hz to 26 kHz and it is capable of delivering 130 dB SPL referred to 1 metre through a combination of modern digital signal processing and efficient Class D amplifiers, providing 2 x 1000 W, 800 W, and 400 W of short-term power into woofer, midrange and tweeter channels, respectively. The H 960 x W 1180 x D 650 mm (37 ¾ x 46 ½ x 25 5/8 in) enclosure features two 18-inch high-linearity woofers, two Genelec proprietary high-efficiency five-inch midrange drivers, as well as a two-inch high compression tweeter, mounted in a very large Directivity Control Waveguide (DCW™) enclosure.
"It's exciting to be adding the new 1236 to Genelec's extensive Smart Active Monitoring (SAM) product range," says Lars-Olof Janflod, marketing and PR director at Genelec. "It is designed to achieve outstanding performance in the most challenging of recording and mixing environments, offering faithful reproduction with its cutting edge design. It is perfect for a wide range of production environments and applications, and highlights Genelec's continued commitment to lead the way with innovative high performance monitoring systems."
