In Reply to: What is/was the most obscure component you've owned ? .... posted by reelsmith. on September 24, 2016 at 10:07:01:
The original Genesis brand. The first speakers I bought at 15 years old were Genesis 1+ speakers. Later sold those to a friend and bought the 320 model. I built new boxes (1 1/2" thick fronts) and arranged the drivers in woofer, tweeter, mid, woofer (aka D'Appolito) arrangement. They sounded MUCH better than with the flimsy stock boxes. Eventually... sold those to the same friend!
