Our take on the Geneva Sound System Model M

by Ralph Graves

The Geneva Sound System Model M is a beautifully crafted iPod speaker system that delivers beautiful sound. Its Swiss-designed hand-made cabinet is real wood, with a rich, hard piano-lacquer finish. The top opens to reveal the built-in dock for your iPod or iPhone, and controls for the system's FM radio.

High-performance sound
You'll enjoy full, detailed sound with the Model M. The system features two 4" mid/woofers to handle the mid and low frequencies, and two 1" dome tweeters to give you crystal-clear highs. Each driver has its own internal chamber and amplifier channel, for the cleanest possible sound. Two ports in the cabinet help reinforce the bass.

And if some of your music sounds better than you remember it, there's a reason. The system uses advanced signal processing to restore and improve the sound of your compressed music files.

Remote control and understated design
The Model M comes with a remote that controls the basic functions of your iPod, like play, pause, and skip. An LED display mounted behind the speaker grille shows you the system's status and radio station frequency. And the Model M features backlit, touch-sensitive controls for simple operation.

Highlights:

  • for docking iPods and iPhones
  • compatible with iPhone and iPhone 3G
  • charges iPod while docked
  • two 4" mid/woofers and two 1" dome tweeters

    FM Radio: The Geneva Sound System Model M is equipped with a built-in FM radio with digital tuner and 6 presets. The unit features a telescoping FM antenna.

    Note: This unit features a PAL antenna input. You will need the Geneva Antenna adapter (761ANTADP, sold separately) to connect another manufacture's antenna.

    Auxiliary Input: The unit features a rear-panel 3.5mm auxiliary input for connecting external audio sources, such as an MP3 player or your PC.

    Note: If an iPod is docked and playing, the iPod sound and the auxiliary input's external audio will be mixed.

The alarm will use the latest source mode and audio setting (if the audio level is too low, an internal beep tone is activated). While the alarm is active, touch whatever key of the touch panel to "snooze" the alarm for ten minutes. To acknowledge the alarm push any key on the remote control. Without acknowledgement, the unit will automatically go to stand-by mode after playing for 20 minutes.

    I Heard It on the M

    Written By DGB, pittsburgh, pa on Saturday, February 11, 2012
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    Very nice unit. Doesn't quite project the sound like I was expecting but all in all very crisp quality sound with solid bass representation.
    Pros:
    Clear and crisp. Pleasant trebles Good bass. Simple, compact design and operation.
    Cons:
    Sound is not "huge", but maybe it shouldn't be. Plugs for more external devices would have been a nice touch. Aesthetically pleasing except for old-time looking radio antennae.
