SVS SB-1000 Pro 10 Inch Sealed Subwoofer with SoundPath Wireless Audio Adapter (Piano Gloss Black)

Needed a sub for near field music listening, connected to Kanto YU4 bookshelf speakers. I went with the 1000 Pro due to its relatively small footprint since I essentially live and work in a shoebox. Otherwise, I probably would have gone with a large, ported sub.There are many ways to dial in the right sound, whether via the parametric EQ, volume, crossover filter, or your PC/amp EQ. It’s my first sub, and I’m impressed by how versatile it is. It can rumble, get punchy or boomy—whatever you're into, basically. The app for iPhone is brilliant—the bluetooth connects seamlessly, and everything is completely controllable. Not once have I had to get on my hands and knees to fiddle with switches and knobs. The auto-on/off is a nice convenience, so there’s no need to power it up and down between listens. I use it mostly for EDM, and love the way this thing shakes.I've read a few reviews where people wrote they couldn’t really hear it. I’m not an audiophile, but IMHO everything is in the settings. I'm thinking maybe they had a wide Q factor envelope in the barely audible 20Hz region. I put most of the volume into the 100-150Hz region, with a narrow Q factor at higher volume than the third PEQ, which I layer toward the bottom for rumble. It can go full-on bone-rattling, and adjusting the Q envelope of three different EQ bands lets you sweep across frequencies for thicker sound or focus on a particular one. Each one has its own gain/volume so you can have fun layering everything. I use APO/Peace to sharpen up the punch and shelve certain frequencies. Again, I’m not trying to come off as an audio expert—I’m not! These are merely observations gleaned from playing around with the app, so my jargon might be inaccurate. The app is very easy to learn BTW. Not overwhelming in the least. Plus, there’s always ChatGPT (AKA, “my second brain”) to answer any tuning questions.As mentioned, I live in a tiny apartment, so I can’t tell you if it would be appropriate for larger spaces. One thing I’ve noted is the logarithmic volume falloff (inverse square law). Just a couple feet outside my speaker triangle is as if I turned down the volume by 50%. Sometimes I’m blasting a Boris Brejcha track at levels that sound like they violate the HOA, yet when I run to the kitchen the volume is moderate at best. The SB can go way higher than the volumes I crank, but the bottom line is that as a near-field listening speaker, the SB Pro is exactly what I was hoping for.This is a great first sub for me and it really does create an immersive music experience. SVS makes a quality product that was clearly well thought-out. Five stars.

This is a fabulous subwoofer. At 13" x 13.5" x 14", it's the smallest subwoofer you can buy with 20 Hz performance. Realistically, it's good to 22 Hz. It comes with an app that permits you to adjust volume, phase, and more. It has a 3 band parametric equalizer, also adjustable from the app. I purchased a gloss white sub and the finish is excellent.Yes, you can buy a sub that will go a little bit deeper for a bit less money (think Speedwoofer) but in a much larger box... think 15 x 15 x 15. SVS warranty is five years. Build quality is excellent.Did I mention that it will easily rattle the dishes in the kitchen cupboard?

This product is excellent ! I am very critical and picky, but this sub is excellent and the price point is very competitive too (I purchased mine open box for a substantial discount however it was missing the power cord - not a problem). I am using this for two channel stereo (not home theater). It is not small, but it is literally as small as it can possibly be - we can say that the size is reactively compact. It is more powerful than 'I' will ever need and yet it works fine at a low/subtle volume levels. The app control is also excellent and the icing on the cake - to be able to accurately adjust a half dozen critical parameters from the listing position is a game changer - and then save the configs to multiple memories !One note: If you are not a 'phone app' person, you can adjust most parameters from the back panel, but it will be very challenging (up up up down up down... no knobs)

Big improvement over the old Klipsch R100-SW which has a 10-inch speaker in a bigger, ported enclosure. This SVS sub just sounds better, you can hear more detail in the bass, and I actually set the low pass filter to 100 Hz (vs 60 to 80 on the old Klipsch) because I was pleased with the accuracy.Of course the phone app that allows you to remotely control the sub and fine tune the settings to your liking is icing on the cake. I've been playing around with it for a couple of weeks now and I think I've hit the sweet spot.I don't watch TV much but I do listen to several hours of music every day, including tons of roots reggae so trust me when I say this delivers enough low-end bass for your musical fix. Right now I have it partnered with a pair of Klipsch RP 600M-II bookshelf speakers and a Yamaha RX V385 receiver and it's been bliss.I had been considering the bigger, pricier SB-2000 Pro, but my research led me to believe that it would be overkill for a music lover in a smallish townhouse, and when I saw the SVS SB-1000 Pro on sale for under $500, it was a no-brainer.

Amazing

Subwoofer works awesome looks brand new

This is my first subwoofer and I am still tinkering with placement and settings. I like it a lot and may update my review to 5 stars once I get it totally figured out. It is definitely a heavy, well-built sub.

Sound is amazing, easy to install as well!
