Room Treatment

~ Ä ë ç ä ì í É = Ñ á Ç É ä á í ó ™

A good balance between proper low bass extension and a deep and spacious soundstage needs to be established to optimize your speaker's performance.

In order to achieve what the speaker is capable of we suggest you focus your efforts on a proper balance of soundstage elements that includes information beyond the left and right sides of the speakers, front to back depth well behind the speaker, excellent focus of instruments and voices with proper vertical information and mid bass fill.

A Genesis loudspeaker system correctly set up, can and should provide a soundstage that “melts the walls of your room” and with pinpoint focus. The speakers disappear completely on a recording that has such quality.

No room is perfect. To optimize your sonic presentation it may be helpful add some minimal acoustic treatment to your room. Here are some guidelines:

1.Front walls. This loudspeaker is a dipole and therefore there is sound coming from both the front and the back of the speaker. How the front wall is treated or not treated is important. Generally speaking, the Genesis loudspeakers prefer a live front wall to a dead front wall.

By these terms we mean the amount of reflection of sound. A typical wall of glass or, brick, cement or drywall material is a reflective surface. A heavily curtained or sound absorbent wall would be considered a "dead wall" or a non-reflective wall. A normal thin curtain across a window causes only a small amount of absorption. Hence, a curtained glass window would just be about perfect.

2.Sidewalls. Because the speaker is a dipole it is less sensitive to the sidewalls. However, as a rule of thumb, it is a good idea to keep the speaker as far away from the sidewalls as is practical. With this in mind, it may be helpful to add some damping material or diffuser panels to the point of first reflection. This is a point on the sidewalls between the listener and the loudspeaker. It is where the sound from the loudspeaker first hits the sidewall, then bounces to the
