HomeTheaterForum Reviews the SB-3000 Subwoofer
"Maintained composure even when pushed for extended periods. Capable of playing far louder than I was comfortable listening, it’s amazing the amount of air this thing moves given the size. Literally shook rafters in rooms which are not designed for punishing sound playback. Recommended and well worth the asking price!"Read Full Review -

HXOS+ SoundVision (Greece) Review the SB-4000 Subwoofer
“The SB-4000 is a "scary" subwoofer full of energy. From the very first Hz onward, mainly felt in the chest and your belly, to the last ones around the cut-off frequency, comfort and a velvety timbre are the dominant factors. No matter how hard we tried we could not make it reach its limits.”Read Full Review -

"The PB-2000 does everything you would want from a high-end subwoofer, and more. Build quality is top-notch, the sound is out of this world with bass that will shake your room but also hit really delicately when needed.

KSpaceGuy Reviews the PB-4000 Subwoofer
“This subwoofer sounds phenomenal. For a 13-inch driver to sound as crisp and accurate as it does is just a testament to SVS engineering prowess. Plus, the PB-4000 hits down to 16Hz with authority.

It just doesn’t get any better than this.”Read Full Review -

We never thought to stick this label to this giant, but it is ... yes, refined."Read Full Review -
