5 Home Theater and Multi-Channel Music
While the Genesis 6.1 was designed with the audiophile in mind, its
performance and features make it ideal for Home Theater as well. The
G6.1 is truly a full frequency loudspeaker that satisfies the requirement
for Dolby Digital and DTS cinema reproduction. However the
combination of the low frequency capability and a unique set of controls
and connections on the G6.1 provide Home Theater users benefits
beyond other loudspeakers on the market.
In essence, the G6.1 has a servo-controlled subwoofer already included
in each speaker. This capability allows the G6.1 to provide the ability to
reproduce the low frequency effects (LFE) signal available on all modern
movie decoders. An additional benefit of using this feature is that the
LFE will come from two, or more, locations in your room versus using a
single subwoofer for LFE. Utilizing this capability dramatically reduces
room bass mode problems. This results in smoother bass integration in
the room, and a huge system impact capability.
With the option of full-frequency Center Channel and Surround
Channels, the Genesis 6.1 Cinema System is ideal for multi-channel
music, which usually requires 5 identical speakers; not a very practical
solution in the real world. Each G6.1 Center Channel System and G6.1
Surround Channel System will have the same frequency response as
your G6.1 left and right speakers.
5.1 LFE Input
The Low Frequency Effects (LFE) input allows the G6.1 to be used in
addition to, or in place of, a separate sub-woofer. The LFE input blends
the low frequency effects signal from the home theatre processor into
the woofer section of the speakers.
The LFE input bypasses the internal crossover, and hence uses the
home theatre processor’s crossover. Since the G6.1 is able to play
down to 16Hz (and lower), the bass section can also be used as your
Home Theater System’s LFE sub-woofer if you do not have one – even
if you are using different speakers for your home theatre system!
On the home theatre processor, set the speakers to “LARGE” and sub-
woofer to “YES” even if you do not have a separate sub-woofer. Then,
take the sub-woofer line-level output from the processor, and plug it into
the “LFE IN” connector on the G6.1. The preferred connection is the
balanced output from your processor, if it has one. If it does not, use the
single-ended RCA output on the processor.
