Press Reviews

“Managed to pressurize the room with its subsonic level bass very convincingly, producing chest-thumping bass ripples. As capable in producing the sound of loud explosions as in delivering delicate tuneful bass in the background music. Considering the combination of build quality, features, and performance, it is hard to imagine that you can get a better subwoofer at its price point.”

"This subwoofer produces tactile bass that is tight, impactful and really pressurizes a room. Great for music and movies, definitely the best subwoofer I’ve experienced at its price point."

"A seriously sophisticated audio device, one that can render subtle differences in bass inflection, but with the capacity to slam hard. The power of the sub comes on fast, in a violent way. I could feel the output through my chair, but it wasn't overbearing or exaggerated. Intense, with purpose and authority, is the way I would describe it. Blended beautifully with the front two channels while imparting solid bass reinforcement throughout the room. A remarkable performer. If you're looking for state-of-the-art, high performing subwoofer, with small proportions; the SVS SB-3000 has no competition."

“If you’re on a strict budget or have room limitations, the SB-2000 Pro is the perfect solution that will give you extreme low frequency extension. The SB-3000 takes it to the next level, infinite bass that will leave you blown away. Either choice is a winner, highly recommend!”

“It was not only amazing the kind of power such a small sealed cabinet could produce, and it could produce a lot. It was also the kind of control it had over the low end that really gave us the chills. It is undoubtedly an amazing piece of audio equipment and if you are dead serious at adding some quality low end power to your system, whether it be for movies or music, the SVS SB-3000 is the kind of subwoofer that will definitely leave you in awe.”

“There was really no comparison to the sound with the stock footers. I heard a cleaner, clearer presentation with better leading-edge definition, the transients were sharper. A couple of annoying occasional room resonances went away. Mid-bass was enriched, and timing improved. High-pitched metallic sounds such as cymbals, triangles, and chimes seemed purer, more vivid. Micro detail was enhanced, and easier to distinguish.”

"This sub has an enormous amount of power and knows how to implement that power perfectly. All the bass tones that the SB-3000 performs sound tight, fast, detailed, full and deep. The only way you could improve the sound is to add a second one to create a stereo image. It is guaranteed to cost much more to find the same quality elsewhere. I can't help but give the SB-3000 five stars. The operation via the app is very useful, the sub is high-end looking and compact (for a subwoofer). The SB-3000 manages to produce enough violence with perfect timing and depth for abundant film and music enjoyment."

"The bass I heard from this small box, unassuming yet nice to look at, bordered on the difficult to believe -- very fast, very tight, very deep, with more than enough output to fill my 15’L x 12’W x 8’H room with sound-pressure levels that would satisfy all but the most demanding bass heads."

“For those looking for a right-priced yet highly powerful sealed box subwoofer, the SVS SB-3000 is a perfect choice for so many music and home theater enthusiasts.
