G7.1f Floor Standing Tower
The Genesis 7.1c
(convertible) and Genesis 7.1p (petite) loudspeakers, launched in
2005 and 2006 respectively, are considered by customers and
reviewers as giant killers with big sound from little speakers and
they have long anticipated and awaited the floor-standing tower
version of this entry-level series of speakers from Genesis.
The Genesis 7.1f
floor-standing tower loudspeaker went through a long and
challenging development cycle but the results speak for
themselves. New discovery and innovative thinking makes it the
smallest possible loudspeaker to achieve
absolute fidelity™.
The bass generated by
this speaker is astonishing at first encounter. It seems to go
deeper than is physically possible in such a small cabinet. Unlike
other small, sealed loudspeakers that try to go down low, extended
note decay, micro-dynamics and timbre of bass are fully preserved.
There is no sloppy overhang and boominess in the bass either. Just
clean, distortion free bass all the way down to 22Hz with the
built-in subwoofer. This is made possible by improvements to the
Genesis servo-bass system which overcomes the inertia and momentum
of the woofer, making the woofer seem effectively mass-less.
The G7.1f
has a warmth to its sound that is not created by an excess of
energy in the lower midrange, but by distortion-free mids and
highs because of a brand new crossover topology. The new crossover
also imbues the G7.1f with effortless dynamics and intense
foot-tapping musicality with its supremely fast ribbon tweeter and
solid titanium mid-woofer. A deep and expansive soundstage with
solid, pinpoint images complete the sonic picture.
This is
more than a loudspeaker for the hobbyist, it is a loudspeaker for
the whole family. It features a large enough sweet spot to
accommodate a loveseat for two because we believe that music must
be enjoyed with family and friends.
The
included Acoustic Suspension on the G7.1f allows it to be
installed or placed on "any" surface—be
it carpeted floorboards, granite, or anything in between. The
exquisite high gloss finish completes the package—making
the G7.1f at home in any décor and
style.
RECOMMENDED OPTIONS
In order
to get the most out of Genesis loudspeakers, the
Absolute
Fidelity Loudspeaker Interface Cables are highly recommended.
