paper cones, and virtually eliminate the problems caused by cone bending and break-up.

The woofers work in either monopole or dipole mode. When the G6.1sr is switched to dipole mode, a unique phase shifting crossover channels the midrange frequencies above 200Hz to these woofers, running them out of phase.

The frequencies below 200Hz are kept in phase in order to maintain the bass response of these speakers.

3.2 Crossover

The crossover is the brain of the loudspeaker. In order to manage and maximize the performance of the extensive complement of transducers used in Genesis loudspeakers, we spend more money on the crossover than many other manufacturers put in their entire speaker even at the same price range.

Each crossover is designed by computer modelling plus years of knowledge and experience. The inductors are designed and made for Genesis with OFC copper windings. The capacitors used are also custom made for Genesis, using high-quality polypropylene-film and tin- foil. The crossovers in each G6.1sr weighs over seven pounds (3.2kg)!

More importantly, the crossovers are designed with many, many hours of music listening and constant refining, tuning and tweaking of the circuit. Out of this comes the “magic” that is a Genesis-designed loudspeaker system. For example, by going the more expensive route of using several smaller capacitors in parallel instead of a single large one, transparency and musicality were improved.

The G6.1sr actually employs three totally separate crossovers. This accounts in part for its absolute fidelity performance. In monopole mode, a single 3-way crossover powers the front tweeter, midrange, and two woofers.

When set in dipole mode, two crossovers are used. One drives one face of the speaker with a tweeter and woofer. The other is a unique phase- shifting crossover that splits the frequency range at approximately 200Hz. The frequencies above this are driven out of phase to the other face, creating the dipole effect. The frequencies below 200Hz are in phase to the other face in order to maintain the bass performance.

G6.1sr specifications

Genesis Advanced Technologies has long been recognized for its pioneering contributions to high-end audio equipment, and the Genesis G6.1sr speaker system exemplifies its commitment to delivering extraordinary sound quality. This cutting-edge speaker system combines advanced materials, meticulous engineering, and innovative design to create a listening experience that surpasses traditional loudspeakers.

One of the standout features of the G6.1sr is its hybrid design, which incorporates both planar magnetic ribbon drivers and dynamic woofers. The combination allows for exceptional clarity, detail, and response across a wide frequency range. The ribbon drivers are known for their low distortion and fast transient response, ensuring that even the most intricate musical passages are reproduced with precision. This is paired with powerful woofers that provide a deep, controlled bass, resulting in an immersive audio experience that brings music to life.

Moreover, the G6.1sr is engineered with advanced crossover technology. The crossover design plays a crucial role in managing frequency distribution, ensuring seamless transition between the drivers. Genesis has utilized custom-designed high-quality components in its crossovers, minimizing phase distortion and maximizing the coherency of sound. This attention to detail helps in maintaining the integrity of the original audio signal, delivering an authenticity that audiophiles crave.

The cabinet design of the G6.1sr also contributes to its exceptional performance. Constructed from high-density materials and featuring advanced damping techniques, the cabinets are engineered to minimize resonance and vibrations that can interfere with sound quality. This results in a clear, uncolored audio output that preserves the nuances of any genre.

In terms of aesthetics, the G6.1sr features a sophisticated design that blends seamlessly into various home environments. Available in a range of finishes, these speakers not only function spectacularly but also serve as a statement piece in any listening room.

When paired with quality amplification, the Genesis G6.1sr can effortlessly fill large spaces with rich, dynamic sound, making it suitable for both personal and commercial applications. With a focus on innovation and excellence, the Genesis Advanced Technologies G6.1sr stands as a testament to the company's dedication to the art of sound. Whether for music enthusiasts or casual listeners, the G6.1sr promises an unparalleled listening experience that will resonate for years to come.
