Great to hear they arrived, and safely at that as well. And you're right...that tweeter is simply out of this world when it comes to detail. Hopefully your stands won't be too far out for delivery as we'd love to see some pics and you're impressions when set-up in their final resting place. Congrats! PS: Just call me JV...... |

It now transpires that my G7.2p monitors may well be G7.1p`s
![]() I am utterley confused to say the least!! The serial numbers on the back of the cabinets start with 71P which i am informed relates to the model being G7.1p...am I right to assume this fact? Also, how many versions has there been of this speaker? The 6moons review I read about the Genesis G7.1p showed pictures of the front baffle having 4 holes in it to accommodate the dust cover and no high gloss laquered finish...My G7`s are identical to all the pics I have seen of the G7.2`s ie: smooth front baffle minus holes, magnetic attach front covers and high gloss finish, Can someone PLEASE tell me what is the difference between the G7.1`s and the G7.2`s and what model were those shown in the 6moons review. ![]() Any info would be much appreciated. ![]() Oh..and to add insult to injury it looks like I have been let down with the stands as well.... How does it go..." If it wasn`t for bad luck I wouldn`t have no luck at all " Last edited by Biggy UK; 06-10-2013 at 06:16 PM. |

Do you have any pics of the front/rear of the speakers? Also, who did you buy them from? Was it an individual or a retailer/dealer? |

![]() I am of the opinion they must be G7.1`s because of the serial numbers, I`m not overly bothered if they are due to the fact they are exquisit looking and sounding monitors which I am over the moon with. its just the G7.2`s are a lot more expensive so the dude I bought them off owes me but untill I assertain exactly which model they are i cant do anything! Oh..maybe Mr Koh himself may read this posting and bring some clarification to the proceedings. ![]() Thanks a bunch JV for your input, much appreciated. ![]() |

I know that the 7.2 series is a lot more expensive then the 7.1's. So yeah, if he sold them to you on the premise they are 7.2's...he owes you. |

Hi JV...Here are the photos of the front and rear of the G7p`s as requested...Not brilliant I know but "Hey" my name is Biggy not Bailey...
serial numbers are: 71P07021 & 71P07022 Also I think they were originally purchased from the authorised Genesis Dealership in Ireland...cheers Last edited by Biggy UK; 06-10-2013 at 06:13 PM. |

Yeah Big AL that would be nice but I dont hold out much hope of them being
7.2`s, but hey.. Lets not take anything away from the 7.1`s they are still a world class monitor which I am proud to be in possession of so either way I am in a win win situation! Just need to sort some decent stands out for them which is proving to be a harder task than I first thought but I will get there eventually.. I watched a short video on youtube of Gary Koh being interviewed about Genesis speakers and Boy does that guy know what he is talking about!! Everything he said regarding speaker design especially his comment on "working with acoustics, not against them" made absolute sense to me. |

I've sent the email to Gary as he is the only one that can say with absolute certainty what they are. I'm of the opinion they are indeed 7.1's as the finish on mine is identical (except for colour). Gary is on his way home from Asia so it may take a day or so for him to respond.

Many thanks JV for your input on this matter and I am certainly looking forward to Gary`s reply.
The reason I was so impressed with the interview was gary`s sheer enthusiasm, his warmth and humour. The way he explained to the interviewer the basics of speaker design in terms we mortals could understand instead of the usual " blind em with science techno-babble" was refreshing to say the least, I only wished the interview was much longer because I was captivated for the 8 minutes or so and quite easily could have stayed captivated for hours!! Makes you understand why his designs are held in such esteem the world over. Genesis speakers are not well know here in the UK for some strange reason and I must admit the first I heard about the brand was when I read a review of the G7.1c ( I think that was the model ) in either Hifi choice or Hifi world here in the UK. Well it just goes to show what a strange bunch we Limeys are. ![]() ![]() |

Gary has very kindly emailed me confirming my monitors are indeed G7.1`s and I am happy and contented with this revelation!
He also explained briefly the evolution of the G7p range and how to tell them apart.... ![]() My kindest regards go out to Gary and JV for their help in solving my conundrum.. Am I unhappy the speakers are G7.1`s and not G7.2`s? not in the slightest, how I see it I am still the proud owner of some of the best monitors on the planet under $10,000 ![]() ps: I now have a lovely pair of Sound Organisation FS104 open frame stands to sit them on. ![]() |
