Room Treatment

No room is perfect. To optimize your sonic presentation it may be helpful to treat 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.

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 proofed 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.

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 listener. This reflection is undesirable because it is slightly delayed from the original sound. This point on the sidewall can be easily determined with the help of a second person and a mirror.

Sitting in your listening position have an assistant hold a mirror up on the sidewall. Move the mirror until you can see the tweeter. This is the point of first reflection. A diffuser (see your dealer), an absorptive material or even a piece of furniture can help break up this point of first reflection.

3.Rear wall. In many cases it will be unnecessary to do anything with the wall behind your listening position. However, you may want to experiment with diffusers or
