Styled in a white finish, the Genelec 4420A is a single, bi-amplified Smart IP installation speaker designed to produce precise, intelligible sound quality in even the most challenging acoustic spaces. This compact speaker delivers clarity, reliability, and adaptability and only requires a single CAT cable, making installation and setup easy. The speaker features 100W of Class-D amplification driving a 4” woofer and 3/4” metal-dome tweeter, producing a frequency response of 62 Hz to 20 kHz with a max SPL of 104 dB.

The 4420A's Smart IP technology provides scalable power, audio and loudspeaker configuration, supervision, and calibration via a standard CAT cable, offering integrators unrivalled power, flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and simplicity of installation. The 4420A ships with a Euroblock connector and a bracket with mounting hardware.

Combining class-leading sound quality with single cable convenience, the 4420A uses PoE to produce uncompromised acoustic performance, and is fully compatible with both Dante and open streaming standards such as AES67 and ST2110-30. Producing huge sound from a tiny footprint, the 4420A delivers over 100 dB of maximum SPL and low frequency extension right down to 55 Hz.

As part of the Smart IP family, the 4420A integrates tightly with Genelec's Smart IP Manager software, which allows installers to configure an almost unlimited number of rooms, zones, loudspeakers, and audio channels. It includes device discovery, a versatile room EQ tool set, system organization, and status monitoring. After which, a public API command set allows the 4420A to be integrated into house automation systems for day to day use. Easy.

• Smart IP was created for discerning professionals who demand premium loudspeaker performance that can integrate quickly and seamlessly into any AV application, no matter how complex the project.
• Powered by PoE and compatible with both Dante and AES67 IP audio streams, Smart IP also offers flexible loudspeaker management to provide system designers, integrators, and installers with a scalable, powerful, and cost-effective solution.

• To deliver pristine audio quality, Smart IP loudspeakers utilize the same two-way active technology that has made Genelec the first choice for demanding studio and broadcast applications for over forty years.
• Featuring our trademark Minimum Diffraction Enclosure and Directivity Control Waveguide, Smart IP loudspeakers provide clarity, intelligibility, and beautifully uniform coverage, combined with bulletproof 24/7 reliability.
• There’s much more, though. Smart IP supports uncompressed low-latency audio streaming directly into each loudspeaker, with synchronization to sub-microsecond level for solid acoustic imaging. Each loudspeaker supports up to eight audio channels in a stream with sample rates of 32 to 96 kHz and 16 to 24 bit resolution, all manageable via Dante Controller software.

• Designed to work closely with any Smart IP loudspeaker system, Smart IP Manager software allows installers to configure an almost unlimited number of rooms, zones, loudspeakers and audio channels, and includes device discovery, versatile room-equalization tools, system organization, and status monitoring. This enables installers to deploy Smart IP loudspeakers even on highly complex, acoustically challenging projects, with a public API command set to allow external control via third-party hardware, software, or house automation systems. For seamless integration with Control4, QSC Q-SYS, and AMX systems, we provide a simple, ready-to-go driver, which can be downloaded and used free of charge.
• For smaller, less complex installations, the Smart IP Controller app gives the end user day-to-day control of mute, volume control, power on/off, and zone control, all via a smartphone or tablet. The Controller app will automatically discover the loudspeakers on the network, and offers a clean and intuitive user interface that both experts and non-technical staff alike will find straightforward and satisfying.

• Created in conjunction with leading Finnish industrial designer Harri Koskinen, the elegantly minimalist Smart IP loudspeaker enclosures are fashioned from recycled aluminum and are built to the highest environmental standards at our headquarters in Iisalmi, Finland.
• Designed for low power consumption and offering many years of reliable performance—all backed up by Genelec’s renowned service and support—Smart IP systems are a secure, long-term, and environmentally sound investment.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. If i hook up a pair of these to my tv will the tv remote control the volume or do i have to use the volume control on the speaker itself?

A: Whether the volume of the Yamaha MS101-4 Powered Monitor Speaker 30W Class-D could be affected by the connected TV audio output source would depend on the functionality of the specific TV connected. Presumably the output on the TV is fixed and control over the MS101-4 would be adjusted via the onboard volume pots.

Q: 2. Its International Warranty?

A: The Sony SS-CS3 speaker has a one year Sony US warranty only.

Q: 3. What is the country of manufacture? (Where are the speakers made?)

A: It is made in MALAYSIA.

Q: 4. Is there a way to adjust the microphone gain from the speaker?

A: While there is not a multi-stage gain control, the Yamaha MS101-4 Powered Monitor Speaker 30W Class-D's single Volume pot on its front panel will affect the level of a connected microphone signal.

Q: 5. Can this speaker be used while horizontal?

A: Yes, these can be oriented in a horizontal position. If using the supplied wall mounts you will use the attachment points on the side of the speaker.

Q: 6. Are these speakers good just for a 2 channel system or are they only for surround sound?

A: The SS-CS3 is compatible for use in a stereo set up or a surround sound set up.

Q: 7. Can I plug a 3.5mm stereo cable from my PC's line-out jack to this speaker's input?

A: Yes, you can go from the headphone output on your PC or the 3.5mm line out on your PC into the line in jack on the back of the Yamaha MS101-4 Powered Monitor Speaker 30W Class-D (Single).

Q: 8. I know the speaker itself is awesome, but how is the volume level when you plug in a 1/4" microphone? ION Tailgater is weak.

A: The ION Audio Party Boom FX 100W 2-Way Rechargeable Speaker with Bluetooth is 100W, while the ION Tailgater is 50W, so you can expect the Party Boom to be much louder than the Tailgater.

Q: 9. What is the ideal speaker wire to get for these speakers? What's the highest gauge can I use with these speakers?

A: I suggest using 14-gauge speaker wire for cable runs up to 100' feet. Anything heavier is simply wasteful if you are using a quality, sufficiently powered amplifier/receiver.

Q: 10. Can they be used for a sound bar back speakers?

A: Only if there is a way to hook them up to the soundbar. These are designed to be used as a front L/R stereo pair. Seems like overkill for rear speakers with a soundbar.
