ribbon/electrostatic designs, without the high distortion and poor 
dispersion that is typically associated with them. 
The G6.1c uses two of these tweeters per channel. One is front-firing 
and the other rear-firing; wired to the crossover out of phase to the front 
tweeter, creating a dipole. 
4.2.2 Titanium 
Midrange 
We sometimes say that the midrange is a window into the mind of a 
composer or a singer. And indeed, the midrange is where the “magic” is 
in a well-recorded musical event.  
The G6.1c uses a Genesis-designed proprietary 5 inch titanium-coned 
midrange to cover this critical frequency spectrum. Manufactured out of 
one of the lightest and stiffest materials known, this low mass cone 
driver is one of the best midrange transducers ever made, with nearly 
instantaneous transient response, enabling the G6.1c to sound lifelike 
and effortless. 
4.2.3 Aluminum-cone 
Woofers 
The G6.1c incorporates two front-firing 6.5 inch metal cone woofers. 
Made of a cone of solid aluminium, the suspension and voice-coil have 
been maximized for long, distortion-free excursion so as to increase 
dynamic range. Our aluminium cones are a magnitude stiffer than 
plastic or paper cones, and virtually eliminate the problems caused by 
cone bending and break-up. 
4.3 Crossover 
If the servo-controlled bass amplifier is the heart of the loudspeaker, the 
crossover is the brain. In order to manage and maximize the 
performance of the extensive complement of transducers used in 
Genesis loudspeakers, we spend more money on the crossover than 
many other manufacturers put in their entire speaker.  
Each crossover is designed by computer modelling plus years of 
knowledge and experience. The inductors are made for Genesis with 
OFC copper windings. The capacitors used are also custom made for 
Genesis, using high-quality polypropylene-film and tin-foil. The 
crossover of each G6.1c weighs over five pounds (2.2kg)! L/C tuning is 
employed to extract the most bass out of the small cabinet. 
More importantly, the crossovers are designed with many, many hours 
of music listening and constant refining, tuning and tweaking of the 
circuit. Out of this comes the “magic” that is a Genesis-designed 
loudspeaker system. For example, by going the more expensive route
