I've waited years to own this 1500 Watt RMS monster plus a few more months at the Doctor's surgery for Gold and Silver level servicing.

No idea what it's worth, but internally comprises three Dual Mono amps configured to run Sub, mid and tweeters. I'd say £3000 will liberate it from the boot of the old Slowdah Rapid..... otherwise, it'll do for me til I go deaf or drop dead!

It'll be a pleasure to replace the ancient Ground Zero 4 channel from around the late 1800's! 🤣

Postie left it while I was at work

That beast is 20 years old at least. I think Genesis folded in the noughties...... Guru Gordon still repairs and upgrades amplifiers....... but he doesn't have a fast lane! I waited months before grumbling......... he's slow but good.

Awesome!! I loved my Genesis set up in my A3 back in the day, would love to do a proper build again in something

Can remember the model of Genesis, probably in my thread. Diamond 10", dummy Genesis case with an Audiocontrol EQL underneath with Focal 3 way comps up front :cool:

I had boot build envy over that system! All my customers only wanted the sound system that made their cars faster! It saved me covering the garage in fibre glass dust! 🤣

I remember bidding on a big custom effort many years ago on eBay but it went a bit rich for me at the time

Can’t mind if it was three dm’s or a mix of dm’s and mini/mini block

Out with the old!!!!!! And in with the metre long Genesis triple dual mono! Next iteration will see a fully active dsp&time alignment system with a nice cover for the unsightly wires.
