Might need to reinforce the floor joists in your home and take out a second mortgage before taking delivery of these!

Ooooooo.... I save $13,500 if I order online.

Just a thought: How does one pay? What kind of credit card has no limit?

Yeah, I wish I would have waited and bought them online. I could have saved a cool $13k.

Fabio has a pair of these. If you saw the episode of The Tom Green Show where he goes to Fabio's house, you can see them when they are talking about the stereo system. Here is a link to the Genesis webpage:

The guy that made these used to work for Infinity and headed a team that designed the Infinity Reference Standard in 1979. It is all on the webpage if you are interested.

I saw that Tom Green episode. I also read an interview with Fabio in Stereophile a few years back.

In both cases, Fabio had Martin Logan speakers, and not these.

Uhh that would be a pretty stupid purchase considering JBL will build you a THX Ultra certified ROOM for 100,000 if its 30,000 cubic feet in size. I can't imagine there can be THAT MUCH of a difference.

You're right about Infinity making these. They still show a pic of them at:
