SVSSB-2000 Pro DSP Controlled 12" Sealed Subwoofer (Black Ash)

As the title. Got this thinking "I can always return it when I find that all the reviews were wrong". Of course now I'm keeping it. Really has good sound. Not the overwhelming bass thump some may want, or rather, not if you configure it to blend with the music. It WILL thump for sure if you crank it, but that's easy.Blending with music and expanding the musical range so you hear music much better though is much harder. Set this that way and it excels. Even piano hits the subwoofer, and a good transparent sub just expands the fullness of music.The app is neat and easy to use if you Do want to alternate to "I just want it to thump", way easier than getting behind the sub, and I've toyed with it sometimes, but in general I just leave it at one set volume and don't mess with it, after the first week or so of course.It's also super compact, which is really nice if you want to put it, well, most anywhere.

This sub met and exceeded my expectations. The bass it tight, and subtle when it needs to be. But loud and forceful when you want it. From the roar of a giant lizard stomping around Hawaii, to the kick drum of an AC/DC song. It never falters, or fails to impress.For a 550w RMS 12" sub, this box is pretty small. Here is a pic of it next to my 12" Klipsch R-112SW. It's a sealed box, so it's not as loud as others. But that also means the bass is more accurate. (Research "Acoustic Suspension vs Bass Reflex" for more details)But you need to give it a break in period. Right out of the box it has 2 sounds...so soft you can't hear it, and slap happy loud. Nothing in between. Once it breaks in and loosens up a bit (about a week or two of good use) the sound just comes together.The app is a bit odd. Unless you have an older amp, or just a normal stereo set up, it's not good for much. The LFE/crossover is useless for home theaters as the amp does that work. The Parametric EQ is fun until you get it set, then you really never have to tinker with it again. Same with the phase and polarity settings. Still, it's fun to have. Bragging rights I guess.All things considered, this sub is WELL worth the money for anyone serious about their sound. I couldn't be happier.

This is an incredible little sub! I absolutely love the app and being able to have a few presets to toggle quickly from my phone vs. fiddling behind the sub each time.It puts out a lot of sound and can easily fill a large room, just understand that it can’t quite replicate the pressurization of a ported box. I replaced my old PB12-NSD with this due to aesthetics and space restriction, and was initially disappointed after a setting it up, running calibration through my Denon received via Audyssey and tweaking some settings on both the sub (via the app) and the receiver.I then called SVS and spoke with a rep who walked me through some of the more detailed settings within the app, and that unlocked the sub’s full potential! I couldn’t believe this tiny sub could hit such a wide range of notes. It sounds better and more accurate with music, and about 90% as good for movies vs my old ported box.Highly recommend this sub, you won’t be disappointed as long as you understand the limitations of a sealed box of this size.

I was looking for more punch in my smallish room for movies, music dvds, and vinyl. This SB-2000 is a vast improvement from my previous sub. I finally feel the deeper bass. Fast, tight bass that blends well with the Klipsch Forte III fronts and RC-7 center speakers for both movies and music. Take the time to experiment with the cross-over frequency and you won't be disappointed. A great value for those looking for a quality subwoofer.

The sub is OG of all subwoofers. 🔊 I love the low bass. I can feel goosebumps everytime it plays. Also my room is open space and one one works great.

Don't know how a towing company can be an authorized to sell this product, hence 4 stars. Larry at Huppins was great, they get 5 stars. SVS and Amazon need to control their sellers better. Product works and sound great Replaced a Klipsch SV-110. Bought it to listen to music.

If you’re serious about getting the most out of your music/movie setup get this sub. You won’t regret it.

Can't imagine a better subwoofer, many many options for configuring to taste - it can and it will boom. This particular subwoofer is very common all over message boards and reddit as a highly recommended speaker, and it is. I also installed it wireless and it performance well without any lag, but there are options to fix the delay as needed. $1000 is pretty high for a single speaker for most, but it is without a doubt the one you want if you can do it.
