Genesis 22 Speakers

Just arrived are a pair of Genesis Model 22 speakers. These speakers where built in the mid 80's and have the signature concave EPI/Epicure dome tweeter. They are driven by a 6" woofer and an 8" passive radiator.

I hooked them up for a quick audition and they have the same great sound that you would expect from EPI's.

The woofers need to be re foamed and luckily I have the proper foams kicking around the house. I might even change the 4.7uf caps to poly caps while I am at it.

The best source of info on EPI/Epicure/Genesis is www.humanspeakers.com and the history of Genesis can be read here.
