Anyone tried to use Genos speakers on the SX-700/900 ?

Stevengale:
I had a Genos for a little while... had to sell it but kept the GNS-MS01 speakers.  The Genos speakers use a supposedly proprietary 8 pin connector and I wouldn't know how to split the wires correctly on that funny cable to get it to work with the ¼" mains on the SX-900 (or 700 since they are identical in that respect).

Anyone else happen to have tried this?

To make life easier I bought some small used Yamaha powered speakers to try give the SX900 sound a little more depth, and that it does, but I'm still not getting those tinsel highs I like to hear from good sound systems and the Genos speakers I think did that. So my goal here is to try to use what i have to get the sound I want... make sense? 

thanks

Is this for home use? Get a pair of studio monitors, I use JBL LSR305's with a small powered sub. If this is for live gigs, you'd probably be using a stage monitor already. IMO not worth the time futzing with proprietary cables, put it up for sale if you haven't modified it.

Try adjusting your EQ settings.

Hi, gather they’re fairly expensive speakers? If so would it be worth trying to find someone to change the wiring for you?
I recently purchased a pair of JBL lsr305’s.  ( same as mixer mixer ) they sound great .

The only documentation I could find is Genos Service Manual on Youtube, which isn't of high quality (one would need actual pdf file) and I found nothing about Genos speakers. Anyway, from what I can see on Genos diagram, I think it shouldn't be a problem to convert Genos speaker set into "universal" speaker system.
To do that, new connectors must be built on subwoofer:
-2 connectors for L&R input (this would be connected to PSR L&R output)
-2 connectors for L&R output (for sattelite speakers)
Having that, wires from 8-pin connector (on subwoofer) must then be soldered to new connectors and  that's it. The only mystery that remains is Mute signal (pin3 on 8-pin connector). The question here is: if no mute signal (=not connected), does that mean speaker is in Mute Off state? Without documentation, there's only one way to find out: to try.
