nearest wall being different.

As the room will greatly influence the sound of your system, fine- tuning adjustments in placement will be necessary. Every room will be different, with doorways, furniture, closets, wall construction and covering, etc. all making a significant impact on positioning.

Unpacking

The Genesis 2.2 system will arrive in a number of pieces. There are four large wooden shipping crates, two containing the woofer towers, two holding midrange/tweeter panels (or “wings”). There will also be a pallet of cardboard boxes holding the acoustic suspension system, the various modules of the servo-controlled bass amplifier, and a box containing the various cables. (There could also be up to three more boxes if you have the optional Maximum Dynamic Headroom Reservoir and power supply upgrades to the servo-controlled bass amplifier.)

To remove the contents of all the crates, you will need help. The G2.2 loudspeaker system with crates weigh a total of 1,400 lbs. Each woofer tower weighs over 220 lbs, and each tweeter tower weighs over 150 lbs and they have to be lifted out of the shipping crates. We are not liable for damage (to either the speakers or your backs!) during unpacking and setting up.

We suggest the use of a forklift to move these crates around, and at least four strong people to un-box and position the loudspeakers. In order to remove the loudspeakers from the crates, the front and top of the crates can be removed. This is secured with screws – remove all exposed screws except the ones marked with blue paint – and the top and front can be lifted away.

With the top and front of the crate removed, each wing and tower of the loudspeaker can be carefully lifted and slid out of the crate. Before you put the speaker up on its feet, it will be necessary to install the acoustic suspension (next page).

After unpacking, we strongly suggest that the crates be dismantled, flattened and safely stored away in a cool, dry place. They will be needed should you relocate or move. It will be expensive to custom
