drivers. Each works at very low-stress. This dramatically lowers the distortions in the high frequencies at all reasonable listening volumes.

4.375-inch midrange ribbon

We sometimes say that the midrange is a window into the mind of a composer or a singer. And indeed, the midrange is where the “magic” is in a well-recorded musical event. This is why the G1.1 loudspeaker system uses a single 75-inch ribbon per channel as a dipolar line- source to reproduce these critical frequencies.

The midrange ribbon used in the G1.1 is manufactured to Genesis’ specifications. The ribbon itself is made of a very thin layer of aluminum laminated to a substrate of mylar that is 0.001inch thick. The ribbon is then suspended in the magnetic field created by over 36 feet of barium-ferrite magnets.

The result is a perfect line-source ribbon generating a continuous and perfectly coupled wave front. The benefit of this to the listener is a wide and even horizontal dispersion yielding a large and highly stable sweet spot.

As a line-source dipole, the midrange ribbon has a vertical dispersion pattern identical to that of the line array of tweeters. This insulates the listener from the room’s negative effects, and enhances the sense of spaciousness and depth.

4.4The Servo-bass Advantage

Very few loudspeakers use servo drive, either because most designers think that it is too difficult to design, too expensive or because of the extraordinary demands a servo system makes on the amplifier and the transducer. However, Arnie Nudell who originally started Genesis, first introduced the servo system in the legendary Infinity Servo Statik One in 1968. The system has evolved, and been improved for the last 40 years, and the one used in the Genesis 1.1 is the latest state of the art.

The concept of our servo-bass system is an easy one to understand. It employs an accelerometer as a sensor to constantly monitor the movement of the woofer cone and instantaneously compare it to the input signal. This comparison circuit identifies any deviation from the input signal and applies a corrective signal to compensate; resulting in the virtual elimination of the inherent distortion of the woofer.

As an example, when you have a high-impact, low-bass signal that starts and stops suddenly (for example a tympani), the inertia of the
