3 Setting up: Multi-channel
3.1 Positioning as Main Left/Right Channel
When positioning the G7.1p as the main left and right channels of a
multi-channel, the same principles as positioning for a stereo system
apply. This will ensure that your system can be used for two-channel as
well as for multi-channel sources.
However, the inclusion of a screen between the speakers may mean
that the speakers have to be put much further apart than ideal. In this
case, you can toe the speakers in a little more. However, if the primary
source of entertainment is multi-channel, more often than not the center
channel will “fill in” the soundstage hole caused by the screen.
On the home theatre processor, the speaker should be set to “SMALL”.
The G7.1p plays to approximately 65Hz. If a ServoSub is used to
support the low frequency extension of G7.1p using the speaker
throughputs, set the speaker setting to “LARGE”.
3.2 Positioning for Center Channel
While the G7.1c is the better partner for the G7.1p as a center
channel, the G7.1p can be used if budget is really tight. A good
starting position is for the G7.1p to be placed 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.
Use a good quality stand that is solidly built and as rigid as possible. The
Genesis ServoSub™ 4/8 is a unique subwoofer that complements the
G7.1p to turn it into a full-range absolute fidelity™ system, and also
makes a perfect stand for the G7.1p.
An alternative is to place the speaker upside-down (tweeter down)
above the television set, and angle it downwards by 3 to 5 degrees. In
either case, do not point the speaker directly at the head of the listener,
but either over her head, or at her chest.
As these speakers are dipolar with a rear-firing tweeter, there should be
at least 12 inches (30cm) of space between the back of the speaker and
the wall. If this space is not available, turn the rear tweeter off with the
tweeter defeat switch.
3.3 Positioning for Surround Channel
The G7.1p can also be used as a surround channel either mounted
on the wall, or on high stands. When they are used close to the wall,
turn the rear tweeters off with the tweeter defeat switch.
