Title: Genesis Physics Model 10
Post by: scorpio333 on June 17, 2015, 09:15:20 PM: Got these awhile ago and I don't have the time or interest in them. Never even plugged them in. Rather see someone put them to use.

Post by: scorpio333 on June 17, 2015, 09:57:14 PM: I believe they are.

I re-foamed mine thinking I would sell them, but they sounded so good I ended up keeping them. The crossovers in mine needed recapping, but it was an easy job as those go.

Post by: scorpio333 on June 19, 2015, 07:55:33 PM: I recall reading some about them when I got them. Urban legends or myths that Epi and Genesis were related or one was stealing ideas from the other or one used the others parts or a bunch of guys left one company to start the other. Perhaps they were located within close proximity of the other. ???

Post by: scorpio333 on September 13, 2015, 01:05:05 PM: I refoamed these after hearing OBG's. No longer for sale, got them hooked up to an old Yamaha on the computer. Blows away the JBL 2500's that were there.

Post by: Sir Thrift-a-Lot on September 13, 2015, 01:44:01 PM: J2500s? JBLs, but Best Buy JBLs. Not a fair fight. I gave mine away.

Post by: scorpio333 on September 13, 2015, 01:53:31 PM: I believe they are BB models, they were a gift way back in the 90's. I forget the whole titanium or not titanium tweeter thing. These do have the titanium tweeters.

And I agree, not a fair fight.

Post by: Sir Thrift-a-Lot on September 13, 2015, 02:10:00 PM: Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they are bad speakers. The tweeters do sound good. They were just made at a price point and corners were cut.
