Genelec 7000 Series Studio Subwoofers

Genelec's active subwoofers are powerful low frequency loudspeakers, incorporating all the amplifier and crossover electronics needed to combine them with Genelec active monitors and line-level signal sources. The amplifier unit integrated into the cabinet contains active crossover filters, driver overload protection circuits and a power amplifier.

The 7060B, 7070A, 7071A and the 7073A have built-in bass management unit with six signal input/output channels, LFE input and summed signal output connectors, providing great flexibility and easy connection to both Surround Sound and Stereo systems. The compact 7050B is designed to extend the bass reproduction of new 8020A loudspeakers in stereo or surround applications and models 8030A or 8130A in stereo applications.

7000 Series Features and Benefits

Overview

The electro-acoustic demands placed on subwoofers over the last decade have increased substantially to the point where traditional design concepts are no longer valid. Thus, it is incumbent for industry leaders to take bold initiatives in order to achieve the absolute best performance possible. Drawing on years of acoustic research and knowledge, Genelec's engineering group accepted the challenges placed upon them. The totally unique, curvilinear shape of the LSET Series Active Subwoofer enclosure is the revolutionary patent-pending result of their efforts. The spiral-shaped design yields an extremely rigid enclosure exterior while also forming the subwoofer's integral port. The fact that one is part of the other means that air flow in and out of the enclosure's interior through the port is totally unrestricted. This results in an extraordinarily accurate and responsive low-frequency system with measured second and third harmonic distortion levels typically better than 30 dB below the fundamental.

LSET Laminar Spiral Enclosure

The new LSET series subwoofers (7050B, 7060B, 7070A and 7071A) feature a bass reflex cabinet which is made of a sheet metal rolled into a spiral shape and clamped between thick MDF side panels. This new construction technique provides excellent laminar flow characteristics with minimal turbulence noise and enables an optimal packing of a very long reflex tube into a small space.
