GENESIS LAUNCHES THE ENTRY-LEVEL G7 SERIES AT THE PACIFIC AUDIO FEST 2023

Genesis Advanced Technologies has announced a new line-up of entry-level, passive floor-standing loudspeakers.

Known for their enormous loudspeaker systems like the Genesis Prime+, their new entry-level range promises plenty of trickle-down tech and design features from the larger models.

ARNIE NUDELL AND GARY LEONARD KOH

The original Genesis7-series started as bookshelf speakers in 2005: the G7c (Convertible) was designed by Arnie Nudell, followed by the G7p (Petite) designed by his design successor in Genesis, Gary Leonard Koh. A floor standing G7f with an active side firing woofer was launched in 2010 and won Best of Innovations for Home Theater Speakers at the 2010 International CES. The line was retired in 2018 with a planned re-launch in 2020.

“I design to deliver music,” said Gary Leonard Koh, Chief Designer and CEO of Genesis Advanced Technologies. “I want to listen to the music, not the gear, and that is what I mean by ‘transparency’. The equipment gets out of the way and the musicians appear miraculously in front of you when you listen to my designs, from the Prime+ down to the entry level 7s.”

Carolyn Koh, Vice President and COO said. “I’m a pianist and when Gary asked what would be ‘good enough’ for me, I said that it would be for them to be able to reproduce a superlative recording of Bach’s Goldberg Variations, and you know what? He did it.”

Gary says that Genesis don’t use cheaper components for their entry level loudspeakers; they use the same proprietary parts, like tweeters and capacitors, across the entire loudspeaker line.

R&D prototypes of the G7 series speakers are currently being shown with Heed electronics, represented by Profundo Audio in Cascade 9 at the DoubleTree Hilton during the Pacific Audio Fest, June 23rd – 25^th, Seattle.

HiFi PiG Says: An exciting entry-level range from Genesis is bound to please their fans without the space needed for their much larger models.
