cones and the loudspeaker enclosure all work in unison to produce bass output that descends evenly to below your hearing limits.

500 watt Class D Servo Amplifier

While the advantages of metal cones include extreme stiffness resulting in very low distortion and break-up, one problem is that of greater mass. To over come this, Genesis had to build an amplification system of great wattage, and high damping factor. The servo system also places extraordinary demands on the amplifier because the system uses enormous amounts of current to make the woofer follow the input signal. Combined with the metal cones, this means that the amplifier used must deliver extraordinarily large amounts of clean power.

In the Genesis 5, the built-in amplifier was specifically designed and tuned for low frequencies in order to produce “floorshakingly musical” bass to power the servo woofers.

One side benefit of this powered woofer system is that almost any sized amplifier can be used to drive the Genesis 5. No longer must one choose between having an amplifier with enough power to drive the woofers, and a smaller amplifier having better spatial and tonal characters. Nevertheless, we generally recommend 60 watts as a minimum.

The Acoustic Suspension

The suspension for the speaker comprises three elements:

1)The neoprene vibration absorbers are tuned to isolate and decouple the loudspeaker cabinet for optimal bass response no matter what surface the loudspeaker sits on.

If the loudspeakers sound extremely hard and relenting, AND you have them on extremely hard floors (solid granite, etc), a set of softer vibration absorbers may be substituted (please contact us if you need these). If a very resonant floor (such as if the speakers were to be used on a wooden stage), the softer absorbers may also be used for further decoupling to ensure that floor-borne vibrations are not transmitted up into the loudspeaker.

2)The skeletal frame acts as a tuned absorber. Made of a high molecular weight acrylic, no two parts of the frame will
