Boo Yaka! Boo Yaka!
They appear to be Genesis 1. Great find. You have a piece of audio history, aside from a great speaker. Human will take care of you, check their site to contact them.

Got the tweeters yesterday, installed them last night and put on some vintage RTR recordings I did back in the early 70's. The system I was using is an Akai 270DSS, vintage RTR recordings from the 70's, the Genesis speakers and a Pioneer SX-650 receiver. It was like a time warp back to the 70's.Very nice sounding set up. I was expecting a radio news flash about the latest Apollo moon landing.
Thanks for all the help guys!!:thmbsp:

I love it when a plan comes together!
Years ago my first high quality set up was a dra 75 denon reciever, and a pair of genisis green surround 2 way speakers, when i went to look at the system my friend had it for sale i said the speakers don't look like much, was i wrong, for a 2 way design they did everything fairly well, i was sold. I just found this site this week[4-13-10]. while looking for an obsolete nad volume control nad # 41-688-0-0 which i still havn't found,this is the first time i have heard others talk about genisis speakers,awesome

I had my first speaker purchase narrowed to a new set of Genesis II or my neighbor's used Jensen OPC 24's. I ended up buying the 24's as they were $100 cheaper being used. While I still have the 24's and still use them (refoamed), I always regretted not getting the Genesis. I believe they had a warmer sound than the Jensens.

At least 3 uses of the word. The classic EPI/Genesis, or Genesis Physics. I got a set as a kid and they proved to me conclusively that I was wasting my time trying to make B*se sound good. I'll always be grateful! :thmbsp:
Two, there are a lot of White Van Scam speakers with similar-spelling names. Avoid them like the plague because, well, they are the plague.
Three, A. Nudel (co-founder of Infinity) started a company using that name. I would only avoid those if I could afford them...

The tweeters should not be difficult to dismantle and the vc repaired. The vc was nothing special, off the shelf but I can not remember the source an longer. The assemblers would put them through a final QC and about 5% would fail so they were dismantled and the parts reused. The masonite version is not easily disassembled. The 1 most of the time had a green surround but we sourced to 3 suppliers and 1 did not supply us with green.
