Speaker ( sold)
Genesis IM-8300 loudspeakers.
piano black finish in good condtion.
Includes dedicated Solid Wood stands.
3-way speaker w/ 1" circular ribbon
tweeter, 3"dome mid, 8" woofer.
Made In USA
These are terrific speakers! Fantastic imaging, tonal balance, depth, bass response and electrifying dynamics with enough power (300W tube).
They are demanding speakers - they have to be about 4ft (or more) away from the rear the wall and carefully moved apart until you get a precise image.
They must be bi-wired with really, really good speaker cable.
They cannot be toed-in even a fraction - you have to stretch some string across the front of the speakers and use it as a plumb line. And you have to have very good equipment.
They must be put on the Genesis stands or Solid Speaker Stand in order to lean back at the right angle.
They are not suitable for a home theatre set-up.
The speaker is not made of MDF, but made up of a three-layer sandwich of woods.
The cylindrical shape is ideal for rigidity and avoiding resonance peaks without the complexity introduced by internal bracing.
And it is finished in a very durable eco-friendly black that just loves to be polished with car wax.
I loved the shape.
There are two knobs on the back for tweeter and mid/bass level.
Tweeter level is usually about one click before 9 o'clock. Mid/bass level is usually about two clicks from minimum level.
They will sound terrible if these adjustments are off.

GENESIS
老闆Arnie Nudell堪稱是音響界大師級的人物,眾所皆知他就是以前Infinity的創辦人之一,更是Irsv的設計者。Genesis是Arnie離開Infinity之後,結合了過去PS Audio的總裁Paul McGowan所創立的。目前Genesis推出的揚聲器計有:IM-8300、IM-8200、IM-5200及主動式超低音Servo-10、Servo-12。
Genesis喇叭的最大特色就是其寬廣細緻的音色,簡直令人要忘了喇叭的存在,難怪會成為國內外音響評論者主動推薦的對象,如Stereophile、TAS、音響論壇......等。
記得當年香港音響前輩Leo初次在CES聽到這對喇叭時(搭配一對同廠Servo 12超低音)的評語竟然是「這對喇叭可以『撕裂空間』」,可見得IM 8300實力之雄厚。當然,IM 8300不能與現在的Genesis大喇叭相比。不過對於能力有限的人來說,IM 8300其實也夠好了。IM 8300最重要的設計在於Arnie獨家的圓形絲帶高音單體,這顆單體延伸漂亮不說,最重要的好處是質感極佳,已經可以讓人領略「高貴」二字何義。修改自MB Quart的金屬材質中音半球型單體後來也用在Genesis V上,雖然中頻不特別厚實,卻十分中性。至於碳纖維的低音單體則也是日後在Genesis各款喇叭上常用的,有著反應精準、乾淨俐落的特性。在搭配調整正確的狀況之下,IM 8300其實可以與許多十萬元級的喇叭平起平坐,甚至尤有過之。
