#136 Genelec 7070A: $4,995 Discontinued eBay
Newer model: the Genelec 7370A, ranked lower, estimated 3.6/5, released Feb 2019. See every Genelec 7000 and 7300 Subwoofers generation.
Same family: the Genelec 7071A (larger subwoofer, ranked higher, rated 3.9/5).
Pros: A down ported 12 inch studio subwoofer with six channel bass management through balanced XLR, now discontinued. Independent CEA-2010 testing records 100.6 dB at 20 Hz and 112.0 dB through 40-80 Hz. The ported, bottom enclosure with 12” (305mm) driver delivers substantial upper-bass output for movie effects and music.
Cons: 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. The 625.1H x 555.0W x 490.0D mm cabinet and 50.0 kg mass still require deliberate placement and calibration. Discontinued.
