damage (to either the speakers or your backs!) during unpacking
and setting up.
As the speaker tilts up and out of the crate, and it is extremely
heavy, we suggest that you position the crate approximately at the
final position where you want the loudspeaker to be.
The top, front and one side forms a 3-sided lid to the crate. Once
this is removed, the speaker can be easily tilted up and out of the
crate.
The box containing the crossover, the servo-bass amplifier and the
woofers are decoupled from the midrange/tweeter panel and the
base of the loudspeaker with shock absorbing rubber de-couplers.
There will be three shipping bolts that secure the woofer box during
its journey to your home. Remove these bolts before tilting the
loudspeaker out of its crate.
There are also foam wedges securing the woofer box for shipping.
These foam wedges should also be removed at this time.
After unpacking, we strongly suggest that the crates be dismantled,
flattened and safely stored away in a cool, dry place. It is expensive
to custom build crates strong enough to transport these
loudspeakers without damage should you need to relocate or
move.
Loudspeaker Connections
Once you have the G2jrs close to where you think they will
ultimately be, connect the loudspeaker to your power amplifier
using a pair of high quality loudspeaker cables (not supplied) to the
5-way binding posts. We have
designed a “Loudspeaker Interface
Cable
” specifically for Genesis loudspeakers for this critical job.
More information can be found from the Genesis website or from
your dealer. However, any well-designed loudspeaker cable can be
used.
A power cord is also needed to power the built-in servo-bass
amplifier. A “starter cord” is provided with the loudspeaker, however
the bass will improve with a higher-quality power cord. As the G2jr
contains two 400W bass amplifier modules per side, make sure
that any power cord you use is up to this job. An
“Amplifier Power
Interface Cable
” is also available from Genesis for this.
