Genesis 700
Loudspeaker features:
The Genesis 700 is
based on much of the same technology as found in Genesis Ireference System
Exceptional dynamic
range and off-axis response
1,5" thick MDF
front baffle and 1" thick MDF sides with heavy internal bracking
Newly-designed, dual
6,5" shielded metal-cone woofers
Twin 1"
shielded circular-ribbon tweeters
Unique 4thorder
Linkwitz-Riley phase-correct crossover loaded with custom genesis-designed
parts
Designed to be
equally at home in pure audio or home theater systems
Users adjustable
music/video bass contour and tweeter level controls
The 700 incorporates
two technologically-advanced and different driver designs to create its sonic
magic. The bass and middle frequencies are handled by two shielded,
custon-designed 6,5" long-throw metal-cone woofers, and the higher
frequencies are reproduced by a shielded version of our famous 1"
circular-ribbon tweeter, one in front and one in the rear.
The 700 can be used
in either a horizontal position as a center channel,, or in a vertical mounting
on either stands or wall mounts as the front, rear or main channels in a music
or home theater system.
The crossover is a
two-way, 4th order, Linkwitz-Riley phase-correct design that incorporates
custom-wound Genesis capacitors, oxygen-free copper inductors and the finest
parts available.
The design, quality
of materials, and fit of the cabinet are critical to the performance of any
loudspeaker. The 700 is unique in both its performance and its construction.
Built from heavily-braced 1'-thick MDF for the sides, a 1,5" thick front
baffle, and covered in either black ash or South American rosewood, the 700 can
truly lay claim to a no-compromise approach.
Beacuse every room
and listening situation is different it is not possible to design a loudspeaker
that is perfect for every application. Knowing this, Genesis has continued in
our tradition of offering you unmatched flexibility. In the rear of the 700, there
are two controls, one for the tweeter level and one for music or video. The
tweeter level control allows you to adjust the volume of the tweeter to
perfectly match your tastes and your system. The music/video switch in the rear
of the 700 allows the bass contour to be optimized for either application.
The Genesis 700 has
exceptional dynamic range for a speaker of its size. It is capable of easily
handling svral hundred watts of power and producing SPL levels approaching that
of live music.
With a Frequency
Response essentially flat from 48 Hz to 32 kHz, the 700 is a full-range
loudspeaker for all but the lowest frequencies which, if necessary, can be
augmented with the addition of a Genesis 900 subwoofer.
One of the most
critical aspect of a loudspeaker's performance is the ability to maintain a
flat energy response off-axis because we typically listen off-axis. The fact
that a speaker is flat (in its acoustic energy output) on-axis is an attribute,
but it is not as critical as its off-axis response. Very few loudspeakers ever
achieve anything close the the level of smooth off-axis performance built into
the 700. in fact, the off axis response of the 700 is so good it is often hard
to tell where the speakers are in the room.
