SB1000 Pro Subwoofer Black Ash

I was a little wary of diving into subwoofer world, as I don't want to play bulging movie soundtracks through it, but extend the bass response of my hi-fi speakers (floor-standing Mission 763s from the 1990s). This compact little unit (just over a foot cubed) tucks neatly out of the way, but effortlessly adds just the right amount of bass in my ~5m x 4m living room. The SVS app (free to download from Apple and Android/Google Play stores) is great, enabling the cutover frequency to be set (so the subwoofer doesn't end up doubling the bass from your existing speakers and thus causing a boomy sound). It has so many parameters that can be adjusted but, as the very helpful SVS support engineer said, "Trust your ears". When you do that, it's quite straightforward to get it sounding really good. Perfect for classical, rock, synth-pop... you name it (including heavy metal, hard rock... or so I'm told - not my thing personally). What really won me over pre-purchase was the statement in the brochure for the SB-1000 Pro: "The subwoofer should add to the sound without unnecessarily drawing attention to itself". Just what I wanted, and just what the SB-1000 Pro does!

Arrived well packed an was easy to set up, basically plug in and play. I am not a home cinema expert so I was glad that the default settings on the speaker were ideal for my system which is a Denon 2600h and 5 Kef egg speakers. The remote control is very easy to work with and all in all I am very happy with the addition of the SVS sub woofer.

This is an awesome piece of kit! I got this to compliment my KEF LSX II speakers and it did not disappoint. My wife was less thrilled to find it vibrated a decorative window we have leading to our porch. The App works well, very handy to be able to adjust it without getting on my hands and knees and going back and forth to check the adjustments. This was the smallest 12 inch sub I could find, much smaller than any others I liked at. Not sure you could call it tiny, until you compare with others with the same size cone. Very pleased, looks good for a black box and is very solid.

This sub hits a low freq of 20hz and absolutely rumbles the room during movies and music that has some low bass lines. It's good quality bass, not boomy at all and highs, mids and lows are well balanced. I only have it set to around 60% gain, with a 5.1 yamaha setup and it fills our large lounge room very well. Positioning is key as it is with any sub so I would absolutely ignore any comments on its underwhelming power as anybody that states this has clearly set the sub up incorrectly. Use the app, position it well, hook it up to a good quality setup and it will impress instantly. Tweaking and positioning will make all the difference though as mentioned. Overall a Fantastic sub for around the £500 Mark. A well priced premium quality subwoofer.

The app for the speaker allows considerable adjustments to be made to the sound so that it can be readily set up to suit your existing speakers. It can be independently altered for volume, crossover frequency, parametric equalisation, phase etc. It also comes with some useful presets for music or movies so you can start with their settings and tailor them to suit. I bought it to add bass to my Opera Grand Mezza speakers, it has definitely strengthened the bottom end by providing some real punch. You can now feel the bass which was distinctly lacking from the Opera speakers when playing rock music. Well worth getting.

Very good sub, tight and crisp, but lacks the feel or hit of a ported sub (exchanged for a PB2000)

This is a really nice quality woofer which probably beats anything in it's price bracket. I chose the SB as music is my #1 priority, if films are your thing then the PB1000 pro might be better. SB = sealed so fast and responsive eg double bass etc; PB = ported which moves more air and has better low end for LFE. Happy with it and it's plenty powerful for my modestly sized home theatre - also SVS was a good choice.

Anybody having second thoughts about ordering it don't .great sound easy set up work it off your phone fantastic 😍 really top quality thanks order it as part of your sound system absolutely brilliant

Auro3D使用で４本購入 部屋が20畳以上有るので~4本あっても役不足でした❗️調整で何とかなってますが！ SVSウーハー自体はよく出来ていて~リスニングポイントで i pad 使用して 全ての操作が出来るので~素早い調整が可能です❗️10畳ぐらいでサラウンドだと４本…2ch使用だと２本使用だといいと思います！ 為替の影響で国産より安く買えれば~選択の余地は充分あります‼️納期はひと月から2か月弱かかりました。

I finally dropped the bomb on a sub replacement and there are no more words to say how great this sub sounds. I really wanted a sub that would work well with my tower speakers for 2 ch music as well as home theatre. My speaker respond down to 30Hz and my current sub would only go down to 32Hz. This being SVS's entry level 12" sub, it is far beyond any competition in price that hits as low as 20Hz, tight and as fast as it does. This sub immerses into your system seamlessly without drowning the room with bass. (Yes you can have bass overkill if that's you thing) The wireless app feature is easy to use and simply the ultimate for fine tuning from your favourite seat. You can save 3 pre set settings for music, theatre and custom. Using these settings in dramatic fashion will allow you to feel & hear the incredible audio from such a compact unit......Simply can't be beat.

Bueno en general, hay aplicacion para el movil y hacer ajustes de sonido. Potente, buen sonido. Tengo otro subwoofer yamaha de 100w y en comparacion es mas potente, pero no mucho mas bueno en cambio hay mucha diferencia de precio. Para una habitacion de hasta 40 metros cuadrados el yamaha va bien por 200euros si necesitas mas, este es mas potente

I like the control of several parameters via software app. This gives a lot of control at your fingertips. I downloaded RAW software and bought its recommended calibrated microphone. Now I am experimenting to optimize the sound. Being a sealed subwoofer, the output is short tailed and controlled. The power is sufficient. Not fancy as the KEF's but very competitively priced.

SVS SB-1000 Pro ist one the best subwoofers you could get. It’s an absolutely solid product. After some fine tuning via the subwoofer’s App, it perfectly integrated with my B&W 706 S3 speakers.
