READ THIS FIRST
Genesis loudspeakers in general are heavy and slippery. This is as
a result of the fine veneer, and high gloss finishes that we put on
the speaker to make them beautiful and an object of art. They have
a luxurious feel as well as an elegant look.
The cabinet is solidly made of high-quality MDF and/or composite
material. Transducers have large magnetic assemblies and the
crossovers use large, high-grade components. All of this leads to a
very heavy object for its size.
Due to the weight, and also to the waxy finish, the loudspeaker may
be slippery and difficult to handle. We always recommend a
minimum of two people to unpack, move them around, and set
them up.
Your speakers will come wrapped in a 100% cotton “sock” inside a
double-corrugated cardboard carton. Examine the carton for
shipping damage. Dented corners are an indication of something
having gone wrong during shipping.
Enlist a friend to help you unpack and set-up the loudspeaker. Not
only is it safer, it is more fun than doing it yourself.
Lift the speaker in its sock out of the shipping carton. Don’t just
grab the sock to lift the loudspeaker. The sock may break. Be
careful that you do not inadvertently put a finger through a driver.
Unwrap the loudspeaker, and store the sock in the shipping carton.
Store the shipping carton in a safe, dry place.
