A Message from Genesis
Congratulations! You are now the owner of one of the finest sub-
woofers available for music and home theater systems.
The Genesis Surround ServoSub™ 2/12t is a unique subwoofer with
two 12” woofers that is designed for applications requiring corner or
sidewall placement, and is universally installation friendly. The unique
shape of the S2/12t makes it an ideal partner to surround or rear
loudspeakers in a multi-channel music or home theater system. The
S2/12t is ideal in multiple subwoofer installations where the distributed
bass of the system produces low bass that is more even, without
resonance peaks (nodes) and valleys (anti-nodes) of a single source.
The S2/12t delivers bass frequencies as intended by the musical
performer, or as intended by the movie director. This is what we call
absolute fidelity™. In this case, we mean that the bass response of
the speaker is completely faithful to the input signal. This is achieved
by servo control of the woofer cone.
The S2/12t plays as loudly and deeply as much larger sub-woofers
that cost much more, and outperforms them in terms of transient
fidelity and freedom from the colorations inherent in ported subwoofer
designs.
Robert Harley puts it best in his review of the Genesis subwoofers in
The Perfect Vision: “Transient impact was extraordinary; the dynamic
envelope of low-frequency sounds was tight, clean, and articulate…. In
addition, bass extension was outstanding; this woofer extended to
subterranean depths and maintained its composure.” He went on to
say, “It combines first-rate musicality and exceptional delicacy with a
bottom-end solidity and power that was fully up to the job of
reproducing today’s dynamic soundtracks.”
Please read through the Owners Manual and Set-up Guide to achieve
the maximum enjoyment from your purchase.
