ver 1.0 2 22 2 ~ÄëçäìíÉ=ÑáÇÉäáí ó A Message from Genesis Congratulations! You are now the owner of one of the finest loudspeakers in the world. Based on technologies developed for our flagship Genesis 1, the Genesis 6.1 Surround Channel (G6.1sr) is designed for those of us who live in beautiful homes and want an elegant loudspeaker that will deliver the best sound in its class. The G6.1sr is designed to be used as a switchable monopole or dipole surround speaker in a home theater set-up, or in an audiophile multi-channel music system where it will be used in monopole mode. 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. It is a perfect match for the elegant and beautiful Genesis 6.1 Loudspeaker system with the same look and driver complement (except for the bass drivers). Being a Genesis absolute fidelity™ product, it is also a perfect complement to any other Genesis model, all the way up to the Genesis 1.1. Sound structural engineering principles have been applied to make the G6.1c cabinet rigid and well-damped. All construction and even internal braces are made of 18mm MDF and have been tongue and grooved to ensure that the cabinet is the best environment on which to mount the transducers. This results in extremely low cabinet coloration, and excellent sound-staging and imaging. (Yes, the sound-stage is important even for rear speakers!) 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 & tricks and support for our owners.

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 a large shipping carton weighing over 43lbs (20kgs). Use correct lifting techniques when moving the speaker carton around or lifting the speaker out of its carton. We will not be held liable for damage to either the speakers or your backs during unpacking and setting up. 1.2 Placement If you are hanging the speakers on the wall, you will need a qualified installer to mount them on very strong brackets. The speakers weigh 38.5 pounds (17.5kgs) each, and can cause death or severe injury if it falls on someone! We suggest either brackets that we supply for flat-wall or corner mounting, or your installer may be able to recommend other forms of mounting. 1.3 Connections The speakers should be connected directly to the speaker-level output of your power amplifiers using high quality speaker cables and the 5- way binding posts. The high-level thru-put binding posts on the speaker are for connecting it to a subwoofer. We recommend the Genesis ServoSub™ 2/12t as the perfect complement to this speaker. The S2/12t is designed for corner or sidewall loading – making it the ideal companion for a surround loudspeaker. 1.4 Adjustments The G6.1sr has two knobs on the back – one sets the tweeter level, and the other switches the speaker between dipole, monopole, and remote- switchable operation modes. Set the tweeter level to the 12 oclock position and the mode to monopole. Once you familiarize yourself with its performance, putting a little bit of additional effort into tuning the speaker properly for your system (which includes the room), will give you greater long-term enjoyment and benefits.
