They do lack a bit though in the low end, not great for electronic music.

Doing a quick google search, the genelecs are twice as much as the yamahas, did you mean hs80m ? Doesnt really sense to get the yamaha hs50ms though if you have a much higher budget.
The Genelec 8020a sells in my country for $720 for the pair while the Yamaha hs50m sells for $600 for the pair so there isn't a huge difference in the price between the two!
