Genuin FS 2 MK 2
Big sound: precision, speed, and depth. Tailored for everyone.
The new 12" woofer of the Genuin FS 2 MK 2 has the same technologies like the 16" woofer of the Genuin FS 1 MK 3. A powerful AlNiCo magnet moves a very good sounding paper membrane. The result is an improved Genuin FS 2 that then deserves the MK 2 tag. Structurally the loudspeaker is the same has the same dimensions and the same look. The sound has become more rich, the result and the improvements are in the same fields like the improvements on the Genuin FS 1 MK 3: more bass, more deepness and improved richness in the midrange.

News about the Genuin FS 2
Sonore and Pluto Demonstration
Saturday, Sep 20 2014, %R Genuin FS 2, Listening Session, NetherlandsMark van Braam of Audio 21 told me:
Marco de Wilde of Music2 told me:
The whole setup was based on Sonore AC gear using our Genuin FS 2 as a front end, the patchwork one, and according to the words of Mark and what he is doing in these days, it worked out to be a really successful event!!
Here You can enjoy the few pictures I got
Here You can read the comments in Dutch on the Dutch HiFi Forum
"I drove to the south of Holland with the gear, to let hear a group of people (about 40 during the day) the difference between the ‚standard’ Pluto motor and the special ‚Sonore’ motor. Using the FS2. I am the very.. big tall guy, 10th photo, with the white shirt at the left"
Marco de Wilde of Music2 told me:
"Yesterday they were flabbergasted by the FS2’s. Over a 1000 m3 of room (21 by 10 by 5 meters) and a real full range sound! They keep amasing me..."

"Real High Efficiency" event in Calco near Lecco, Italy
Saturday, Jun 28 2014, %R Event, Fun 10, Genuin FS 2, Italy, Tempesta 20
On the 28th of June Alta Fedeltà in Calco, near Lecco hosted a very nice event with Blumenhofer.
Here You can read something more about the event. It is written on Italian.
Which Loudspeakers? A Fun 10, a Tempesta 20 and a Genuin FS 2 connected to Octave power amplification.
The Sala Grande room had:
- Blumenhofer Genuin FS 2
- pre Octave HP 300 Mk2
- finale Octave RE 290
- lettore Cd Audio Research CD9
- whole cabling from Cammino-HP
- Power harmonization from Cammino as well
The Sala Nuova room presented:
- Blumenhofer Tempesta 20
- amplificatore Octave V 40 SE
- lettore Cd Gold Note Koala Tube Anniversary
Needles to say that most people spent most of the time in the Sala Grande.
Well, we hat lots of questions and lot of information share, lot of talks and, in between, I had the chance to sit down and enjoy some music: my impression was that there was no system, that everything disappeared and the music came like a wall with a refinement and a description precise like a diamond cut. It had the presence and the richness of a complete symphonic orchestra. Wow a seldom experience!
Here some pictures of the event.
p.s.: during the event we agreed with Angelo Jasparro for a review of the Genuin FS 2 on his online magazine, Audio-activity
