Olympic Goes 5.1 with Genelec

Olympic Studios, the West London recording facility situated in Barnes, has installed a new Genelec 5.1 monitoring system based around the new 7071A LSE™ subs, with their unique bass management.

Designed by Sam Toyoshima, the recently refurbished Studio 1 has one of the largest live areas and control rooms in London. Artists including Paul Weller, Spanish orchestral group Presuntus Implicados and Producer Narada Michael Walden are already booked to use the studio following the installation.
