of using several smaller capacitors in parallel instead of a single big one, transparency and musicality were improved.

4.4 Vibration-free Cabinet

The cabinet was designed for aesthetics, but with an obsession to sonic quality, vibration control, structural strength and rigidity.

In some parts of the cabinet where vibration would have been the greatest, two inches (52mm) of multi-layer bonded MDF was used to provide damping, structural integrity and a rigid platform for the drivers to be located. Extensive bracing was carefully incorporated using 25mm slabs of MDF to eliminate cabinet flex and panel resonance.

Incidentally, MDF was chosen as the material of choice for its damping properties and its consistency in hardness, density and rigidity. It would actually have been cheaper and easier to make the cabinet of solid wood, but that would have been a compromise.

Genesis designed a unique tongue and groove joint in order to improve the structural rigidity of the cabinet.

Crystalline glue the dissolves into the mdf was chosen to ensure that the interfaces between two panel pieces becomes as one. This results in the entire enclosure behaving as a single unit, with seemingly no discontinuity in material.

This results in a joint so strong that when you try to rip the joint apart, it isn’t the joint that would break. The mdf would break apart first.

Genesis locates the midrange and high frequency transducers on a 12mm thick piece of solid-surface Aluminium Trihydrate and Resin material; the same as used for the flagship Genesis 1.1.
