Page 4: Quick Start Set-Up Guide
1.2 Placement Used as a center channel, the G6.1c can be placed below or above your screen. If you have a perforated, sonically transparent projector screen, you may place it behind the screen. In all cases, do not point the tweeter directly at the ears of the listeners. -

Don’t be too worried by the knobs on the back of the G6.1c. Just set both knobs to the 12 o’clock position. That is a good place to start. The G6.1c will sound great, straight out of the box, set-up like this. As you play your system for the next hundred hours or so, the speaker will settle in and break in. -
Page 6: Setting Up: Multi-Channel
2 Setting up: Multi-channel 2.1 Positioning for Center Channel A good starting position is for the G6.1c to be placed horizontally about 20 inches from the floor, and angled upwards by 3 to 5 degrees. This is assuming that the speaker doesn’t block the screen in this position. -
Page 7: Tweeter Defeat
2.2.2 Tweeter Defeat The G6.1c should be placed at least 12 inches (30cm) away from the wall behind the speaker. If this is not possible, turn the rear-firing tweeter off to configure your loudspeaker as a monopole. This is perfectly acceptable and will not compromise the performance for multi-channel surround movies. -
Page 8: Setting Up As Stereo Pair
3 Setting up as Stereo Pair 3.1 Positioning Used as a stereo pair, the G6.1c should be placed vertically 18 inches (0.45m) into the room as measured from the front wall (the wall you look at as you are seated listening to the speakers), to the back of the speaker. -

Music is the best way to begin your set-up procedure. We suggest that video sources be used only after you have set-up the system to properly reproduce music. There is no “perfect” setting for the G6.1c loudspeaker. Every listening room is different, and we recommend that you take the time to carefully tune the system for the environment in which it is placed. -

Do not, for instance, change position of the speakers and make an adjustment to the amplifier all at once. -
Page 11: Defining The Soundstage
~ÄëçäìíÉ=ÑáÇÉäáíó Find the best compromise for your room, your tastes and your space requirements. If you are not getting proper focus on the voice, you may angle the left and right speaker up to about 15 to 20 degrees (toe-in) towards your listening position until you have a properly defined center image. -
Page 12: Room Treatment
~ÄëçäìíÉ=ÑáÇÉäáíó A Genesis loudspeaker system correctly set up, can and should provide a soundstage that is wall-to-wall, with pinpoint focus; the speakers disappearing completely on a recording containing such information. 3.7 Room Treatment No room is perfect. To optimize your sonic presentation it may be helpful to treat your room. -

However, you may want to experiment with diffusers or absorbers behind you for best sound. Absorption behind the listener is usually beneficial. -
Page 14: The Technology Used
The G6.1c uses the wall behind the speaker to give more depth to the soundstage and “air” to the speaker without detail robbing room reflections from the sidewalls. -
