Yes, this is my system. The Genesis speakers are amazing. I would never buy anything else! The system sounds so lifelike that I still can't believe it each time I turn the system on. The soundstage is huge; the instruments hang in space; human voices are so lifelike that it startles my cat sometimes.

First of all...congratulations! Second, I have heard the Genesis 1.1s with an all Kondo system and driven by a DCS Scarlatti and Walker Proescenium TT...exceptionally well tuned and setup. I can only imagine what it must be like to fire it up each day.

It simply the sheer size that make them a challenge for many who no doubt equally admire them.

Here's a new picture that probably has not seen light of day anywhere else (well - except for the secret Genesis Owner's Group). He asked not to be identified, but it's a new home built somewhere in the Rockies. It's a Genesis 1.1 - from this perspective, the midrange/tweeter wings completely hide the woofer towers.

Here is another photo. This one shows the woofer towers.

There are a total of 4 PS Audio P10s: 1 for each of the mono blocks, 1 for digital front end, and 1 for analog front end. All are fed by individual circuits with Equi=Tech.

It's pretty amazing how the camera lens changes the perspective in the room.

It is a great looking room.

Can you tell us a little about the room treatment, ceiling and especially wall materials.

Thanks. The walls are Whisper Walls. They were really used mostly create a visually clean looking (but still warm feeling) room. There is actually very minimal treatment behind the acoustically transparent fabric. There is some diffusion material at first reflection points and small amount of absorption in just the corners of the wall behind the listening position. Behind the speakers is just drywall under the fabric.
