Short answer: the Genelec 7370A, if you are buying new. The Genelec 7070A measures as well as it (#136 vs #138 of 143 subwoofers, 3.6/5 vs 3.6/5) but is discontinued, so only consider it used; the Genelec 7370A is still sold new at $4,195.
What the Genelec 7370A does well: A 12 inch studio subwoofer with analog and digital XLR connections and automatic network room calibration. The tradeoff: No independent measurements yet, so its output can’t be compared with ranked subwoofers.
What the Genelec 7070A does well: A down ported 12 inch studio subwoofer with six channel bass management through balanced XLR, now discontinued. Watch for: Deep-bass output is more limited than the strong 40-80 Hz result suggests, so it is not the right choice when the lowest movie effects are the priority.
Buy the Genelec 7370A, since the Genelec 7070A is discontinued and only worth hunting down used.
Worth knowing: the Genelec 7370A has not been measured yet. Its rating is estimated from related models, with a likely range of 3.4 to 3.8, so treat this verdict as provisional.
