ver 1.0 2 2 absolute fidelityÔ A Message from Genesis Congratulations! You are now the owner of one of the finest loudspeaker systems in the world. Based on technologies developed for our flagship Genesis 1 and the award-wining Genesis 6.1, the Genesis 6.1e is designed for those of us who live in beautiful homes and still want an elegant loudspeaker that will deliver the best sound in its class. So that it will fit into the décor of any home, the cabinet design is a combination of acoustic, furniture, interior design and architectural principles. Subtle angles and complex curves are used to create an optical illusion that makes the G6.1e look smaller and slimmer than it actually is. The veneers are also carefully chosen to reflect and enhance these curves and angles. Sound structural engineering principles have been applied to make the G6.1e cabinet rigid and well-damped, with no detrimental vibrations. All construction and even internal braces have been tongue and grooved to ensure that the cabinet is the best environment on which to mount the transducers. This results in an absence of cabinet coloration, and excellent sound-staging and imaging. Mated with a matching Genesis ServoSum™, the G6.1e will deliver the full frequency response of 16Hz to 36kHz. Thus delivering the vital infrasonic and ultrasonic frequencies to deliver the emotive content of music. The Genesis 6-Series Cinema System can optionally include a full complement of matching surround speakers, center channel, and additional bass modules. Hence the G6.1e is equally at home in an audiophile two-channel music-only system and as a key component in a home theater/multi-channel music environment. Please read this Owners Manual and Set-up Guide to get the maximum enjoyment out of your purchase. Also, check out our website at www.genesisloudspeakers.com for the latest updates, tips and tricks, and support for our owners.

ver 1.0 3 3 absolute fidelityÔ 1 A Quick Start Set-up Guide Now that you have your new Genesis 6.1e loudspeaker system, we realize that you cant wait to hook it up and start playing! However, please read this quick set-up guide (even if your dealer is setting it up for you) before you proceed. 1.1 Unpacking Your loudspeakers will come to you in two large shipping cartons. The cartons containing your speakers weigh over 90lbs (41kgs) each, so we suggest a minimum of two strong people to move the speaker cartons around. We will not be held liable for damage to either the speakers or your backs during unpacking and setting up. The packaging is designed to ship the speakers vertically, and to be unpacked horizontally. Please observe the This Side Up signs when shipping and unpacking. The carton is designed to unfold to make it easy to remove the speakers. With a sharp knife, cut the tape on the top and two ends of the carton. The sides will fall apart revealing the speaker held in place by a back support box, and two pieces of foam holding on to the top and bottom of the speaker. You will also find the wire grill that will go on the front of the speaker. Remove the foam on the bottom of the speakers, and slide the plastic and foam wrapping off. Now, tilt up the speaker until it is resting on its bottom. Remove the top piece of foam, and the wrapping. Repeat with the other speaker, and store the packaging in a dry, safe place – just in case you need to transport the speakers. 1.2 Room Placement A good starting position for your G6.1e is about 18 inches (46cm) into the room as measured from the front wall (the wall you look at as you are seated listening to the speakers) to the back of the base of the speakers. Place the speakers about five to six feet (1.8 metres) apart measured between the tweeters. Toe the speakers in slightly towards the listeners – by about 5 to 10 degrees – no more. This is the best starting point for audiophile two channel stereo set-ups. If you are primarily using these speakers for home theatre enjoyment, the speakers can be placed nearer to the wall. If you are only going to use these speakers for stereo, you may want to pull them further away from the wall.
