2 Setting up

2.1 Positioning

A good starting position is for the G6.1sr to be placed horizontally about 48 inches from the floor and approximately 10 degrees behind the listener, and at the same distance from the listener as the main L/C/R speakers.

Use a good quality stand that is solidly built and as rigid as possible, or hang the speakers on extremely strong brackets on the wall. The Genesis ServoSub™ 2/12t is a unique subwoofer that complements the G6.1sr to turn it into a full-range absolute fidelity™ system.

On the home theatre processor, set the speaker to “LARGE” as the G6.1sr will play to below 60Hz even without a subwoofer.

2.2 Loudspeaker Controls

The two knobs at the top of the plate on the back of the speaker tailor the high- frequency response of the G6.1sr and determines the mode of operation.

2.2.1Tweeter Control

The tweeter control is subtle with only a

±one dB range, but it can make a great

difference in gaining that last bit of additional performance in tuning your speakers for the system in which you are using them. They can turn your system from very good to exceptional, so take the time to work through this process.

The left knob marked TWEETER is a volume control for the front tweeter. Turning this control clockwise will increase the level of the tweeters. Use this control if you need a bit more treble, or to increase the apparent space of the soundstage. Too high a tweeter level, and you can feel that voices are too sibilant. With music, crashing cymbals are leaping out at you, and nylon stringed guitars sound steely. Start with this control at the 12 o'clock position. There is about a ±1dB range for this control.

2.2.2Mode

The G6.1sr is a monopole/dipole surround speaker.

When used primarily to reproduce movie sound effects, the speaker can be used in dipole mode. When set as such, the speaker sounds ephemeral and diffused. The G6.1sr incorporates a unique phase shifting crossover when used in dipole mode. In most surround

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.
