For the past 15 years we had been using an Infinity PS10 subwoofer. When that finally quit we had the opportunity to upgrade. Since my system is all Klipsch Reference Premiere I had my eye on Klipsch SPL 150W for a long time. However, reviews I had read indicated Klipsch has issues with pre-mature failure of amps. My search led me to SVS, and boy am I glad it did. This PB2000Pro is nothing but excellence. It is a very large subwoofer so make sure you have the room for it, but it drops down into the 16 Hz range where most other subwoofers give up in the upper 20's or low 30's. The mobile App and bluetooth connection allows you to sit in your chair and tune it in, which is extremely helpful. This is a dual port subwoofer, and is great for our large 16x31 family room. ... MoreFor the past 15 years we had been using an Infinity PS10 subwoofer.

I have setting on -10 and 5 on the sub and receiver, so there is plenty of headroom. There is even an option through the electronics on the subwoofer to run it in Sealed Mode (with optional port plugs that SVS provided me free of charge), for those of you that might listen to a lot of music this may be handy, although I think this thing handles music great. Overall, as long as this can fit in your room, you will not be unhappy with the PB2000Pro. One last note, SVS is one of the best companies I have ever dealt with. They helped me decide on the best Subwoofer for my situation, and are so responsive and helpful. If I could give this 10 stars I would!

Even though I ended up returning it, Ill buy from them again. Saving for the PB4000. My room is 5000cubic feet so the 2000 just didnt quite cut it. I do feel the app can be more reliable and improved. There were times the Bluetooth would not connect and other times when chages made in the app wouldnt do anything with the sub. This resulted in restarting the app and/or power cycling the sub. My saved presets would be forgotten as well. I like the idea of the controls on the front on the 4000 for this reason. But man... When it hits those low notes you forget any problems. I gotta have more cowbell... I mean bass! The 3000 would probably do but im going to make sure I have enough and go for the 4000.

Ordered PB-2000 Pro from B&H since SVS website indicated that they were out of stock for few weeks.Upon receiving the unit, the first thing I noticed was a damage to the edge of the subwoofer (see image). A small, but very noticeable impact and a nick to the back, top edge of the speaker. The shipping box was in less than a good condition and appeared to have several impacts to the shipping box. Nothing so bad that would have refused the shipment.The second thing is the grill doesn't fit properly. The grommet hole for the gill is off by 1/8 on one side compared to the prongs on the grill.I've contacted SVS on both issue and they send me a set of new rubber plugs for the grommet to see if that would fix it - It does not.

My wife first said its unacceptable! She relented and is living with it but not liking it. So be aware that the size is not trivial. I think that the depth of the box makes it really noticeably big.As for the sounds and effects performance - its excellent. This is the only reason why I am living with the issues listed above.The sub is used both for 2 channel stereo as well as home theater (9.1 setup with Atmos). It matches with my Martin Logan ESL electrostatics (mains) perfectly by setting the crossover at 60 Hz for my music. Any movies sound probably better than at a movie theater (its a good thing given current Covid situation), including what we want the boom and feel it for.I highly recommend it but be aware of its size and significant other's factor!

I have had an SVS SB-2000 since 2014, and I love it. When I wanted another sub for a different system, I didn’t even consider buying anything other than SVS. That may have been a mistake.The “Great” part of the SVS PB-2000-Pro is the sound, which is the ultimate bottom-line anyway, so I give this a “4” rather than “3”. The current 2000 models use the same driver and amp as my original unit from 2014, and these are flawless. The ported PB-2000 does have a bit more “presence” to it than my older sealed SB-2000 unit, but because the enclosure must be larger to accommodate the ports, the ported PB-2000 is physically huge and very heavy compared to the discreet little sealed SB-2000. If size is an issue, then there is certainly nothing wrong with the SB, but if maximum ... MoreI have had an SVS SB-2000 since 2014, and I love it.

If size is an issue, then there is certainly nothing wrong with the SB, but if maximum output is the objective, the PB will deliver.Though driver and amp are the same, what makes the current “Pro” model different from my older unit are its controls, and these cute, gimmicky new controls are awful. Knobs that turn and switches that toggle up-and-down may seem “old-school” these days, but there is simply nothing simpler and easier than such direct analog control, and “simpler” and “easier” are the definition of the word “Better”. For all you Borg out there, there is the required phone-interface on the Pro, but you shouldn’t need a phone to control your sub, or to clip your toenails either, for that matter.These new controls are undoubtedly cheaper to build and increase profit margin, and punching a button over, and over, and over to make some display lights move on a confusing shared-function display may not seem like a big deal, but it’s still not as easy as turning a dedicated knob. If I could return the “Pro” for an older non-Pro, I would do it in a heartbeat and pay a premium for the privilege.Still, it SOUNDS great, though.

Also remastered classic rock recordings done in multi-channel now on BluRay. Find remastered recordings done by someone that really knows what they are doing and it can be a whole new enjoyable listening experience to what you've been listening to for years.When it comes to musical abilities. This sub blends in seamlessly in my system. I can really appreciate how it beautifully reproduces the sounds of a traditional acoustic standup bass. Not to mention how well it sounds with electric bass guitars. The best thing I think I can say is this blends in so well and fills in the bottom end so seamlessly, I just forget it's even there. It sounds great. I'll list later what equipment I use.As for BluRay movies. What can I say. Sound effects galore. Explosions will get your attention. Those quiet moments that instantly transition to something surprisingly loud can make you jump. I haven't listened to a lot of subwoofers. But I stopped looking and listening when I found SVS. They just seem to reproduce sound without that fake boominess. Some people like that, I do not. I like accurate bass reproduction. SVS delivers that in my humble opinion.Please remember that the PRODUCTION QUALITY of your sound source material and how well it is mixed has a huge affect on what we hear. As with any sound reproduction equipment, garbage in, garbage out. Use quality source material and components and you'll sit back and enjoy.I also really appreciate the black ash finish. It closely matches my existing speaker system.I am not a fan of any app to control my devices. In my humble experience they usually have faults and do not work for me. Call me old school. (I am over 60 but have been an audiophile since I was a teenager and am not hesitant to check out and use new technology, as I've done throughout my working career, if it is GOOD tech). In the case of the bluetooth SVS app, my seating position, 20' from the sub, line of sight, no obstecles, does not maintain a connection. Not a big deal for me as once I set everything up properly originally in my system, I don't bother to change anything. No need to. If you're someone that just has to have an app, you may find this a negative. I do not.As to my system I incorporated the PB-2000 into. I've had this setup for some time now and it just works and sounds well in my listening environment.I use a Marantz AV7005 pre/pro, a Rotel 5 channel RMB-1075 power amp, Paradigm Monitor 7 V3 5 speaker system, Sony BluRay player, Apple TV 4K, Sony 5 disc changer SACD capable, a Mac Mini as a media server and an LG 60" plasma TV (I have yet to find a TV that can reproduce skin tones as accurately as my LG plasma. I'll use it until it no longer works). My listening area is my living room in an old farmhouse that has some modernization done over the years. It is 15' wide by 23' deep with a ceiling just under 8'. Wood frame, drywall walls and ceiling. Most of the wood floor is carpeted with 8' on the deep end where the main equipment and TV are located, exposed wood floor. I used the recommended settings for the sub provided by SVS for my speaker system. I then used the Audyssey Auto Setup of the Marantz. Using the microphone in as many positions as the system permitted. The only changes I made from there was to adjust the input levels from different sources in the Marantz so they would be similar. When looking at the adjustments the Audyssey software incorporated, they are minimal. This has worked well for me. I used the same technique with my former SVS subwoofer. It just seemed to work for me.One other note. With the purchase of the PB-2000 I also purchased the SVS SoundPath subwoofer isolation system.I was able to compare the sound with and without the isolation system. Remember, I live in a 100+ year old wood frame farmhouse.WOW! I cannot believe what a major difference the isolation makes in my particular installation. Without the isolation there were things that would vibrate and rattle in the listening room and beyond. With the isolation- - it's pretty much eliminated all of those. Which makes the bass produced by the PB-2000 that much more detailed and accurate. Well worth the price. I wouldn't buy another sub without this isolation.As to why I cannot say enough good things about SVS as a company.The other SVS subwoofer I have is a PB12-NSD I purchased some years ago. I truly enjoyed that subwoofer also.Earlier this year I was having a very random, very intermittent unfavorable brief metallic rapping sound emanating from the PB12.Because it was so random and so varied in it's timing in repeating the sound (a brief sound, minutes, hours or even days apart) I was having a difficult time determining if the issue might be with the sub or the electronics. I did not have another sub to install to test, nor did I wish to risk possible damage to another sub if the source of the issue was the electronics.So even though my PB-12 was a few years out of warranty, I reached out to SVS with a description of the issue I was having, and asked if they had any thoughts on if it might be the sub or the electronics. I figured, what did I have to lose other than some time. Time, which as a retired person I find even more valuable then when I was working. So many things to do and want to do.Anyhow. SVS was very helpful with suggestions and testing techniques. Because the issue was so random in when it might happen we went back and forth with emails over a period of time while I did the suggested testing. In the process I decided I wanted to upgrade to the PB-2000 subwoofer. So I ordered one. Which sat here for a while once I received it. Due to the fact I was still testing my PB12. In the end we determined that the issue was with the subwoofer. The driver was at fault. But in the course of testing the amp failed. Just let me say that the driver may have failed due to a couple of things. One, I may have overdriven it listening to movies. It seems that movie productions really like to push the bass sound effects to the max. While raising the volume level to hear the quiet spoken moments in the movie, it may have been too high when the bass sound effects came in. I just really don't know. I can say that I truly enjoyed my PB12 for many years.To sum up. SVS offered to help me with the issue on a sub that was a few years beyond warranty. They did not need to do that but they did. As to a resolution. Without question, a very reasonable solution was reached. Which resulted in my having a PB12 with a new driver and amplifier.Again, I cannot say enough good things about SVS as a company and the products the provide. Simply awesome. Very rare now. All companies should strive to this level of customer service and satisfaction. It definitely kept me as a repeat customer.As I stated earlier. As a recently retired person, time is more valuable to me now. Even more so than when I was working long hours. Once I retired I realized how important time is. Anyhow. For me to take the time to write this somewhat lengthy and detailed review should say something about how much I think SVS and their products are wonderful. It seems people will take time to write brief bad reviews. I feel it is important to write good detailed review when one finds a company as great as SVS. Thank you for your time.
I wanted to give a real review of this product. I pride myself on my home entertainment set up, I spend a great deal of time using my entertainment center, and quality matters because I suffer nearly constant migraines. That said, I did significant research when upgrading my previous sub to an SVS sub. I discovered ported offers a clean bass that was easier on people who suffer from brain issues, like migraines. So I knew going in I would want a ported design to get the sound without as much actual pressure in the atmosphere.My room is not small, but also isn’t really medium, however it is an open floor design. I wasn’t certain how to address that, so I reached out to SVS customer care and gave them specifics.

So I knew going in I would want a ported design to get the sound without as much actual pressure in the atmosphere.My room is not small, but also isn’t really medium, however it is an open floor design. I wasn’t certain how to address that, so I reached out to SVS customer care and gave them specifics. I also advised I was choosing between the 1000 and the 2000 ported. After some detailed discussion the advise given was that I go for the larger 2000 if I could manage to handle its girth (it is a larger footprint that you think, I suggest cutting a piece of cardboard the sand size and seeing how it fits). It was going to be close for me, but I really need the best I can manage for quality of sound, so I decided I would make it work. The bonus is that SVS offers a 45 day in home trial period and they pay return shipping if you aren’t satisfied, if you check online you will find that people use this service often and never have a problem with the company coming thru for them, that alone is huge.The sub arrived quickly, and there were actual instructions on how to properly remove it from the box, which was interesting and a sign of how well thought out the entire process was for SVS. I set the sub up, and immediately ran the auto setup for my sound system (tip, locate your receivers microphone for auto setup before the sub arrives). I installed the app (altho tbh it seems rather redundant, I will explain more shortly) and after some test sound movies, I determined the auto setup was about perfect.The difference about SVS subs is that they don’t overwhelm you with bass, they provide exactly the right amount, since I watch mostly movies, my standard setting is for movies. The goal to know if your sub is performing well, is to understanding that the proper amount of bass means you won’t notice that it is boomy, or that it is lacking, during your movie. If you simply don’t notice it, then it is performing perfectly. This is a concept that did not make sense to me before actually experiencing it. My prior sub was boomy, and I had grown used to that, so much do that I thought that’s how it should sound. Actually having the bass match the events on tv, brought my movie watching experience to a whole new level. Not only that, but reducing the unnecessary and excessive boominess also reduced the pressure in the room, which reduced my migraines. So it was a win across the board.I have been convinced and won over by SVS. As my components fail, I will replace with SVS components. The quality of their products combined with the quality of their customer care, makes this an easy decision for the future of my entertainment center.
I had wanted to add a second PB 2000 sub to my system bad enough to completely rebuild the it so that the electronics are located in another room giving me the physical space needed to accommodate the second sub. I now have both subs (1 PB 2000 & 1 PB 2000 pro) located under the TV surrounded by other SVS speakers (tower, center, and elevated) creating a impressive sound stage for the family to enjoy our TV viewing.I would describe the listening room as being mid sized but with a cathedral ceiling. Running these subs anywhere close to to 1/2 volume will literally rattle the family pictures hanging on the walls resulting in a high degree of wife agro even with the isolation feet installed. Needless to say, most times the subs are running at something slightly less ... MoreI had wanted to add a second PB 2000 sub to my system bad enough to completely rebuild the it so that the electronics are located in another room giving me the physical space needed to accommodate the second sub.

Running these subs anywhere close to to 1/2 volume will literally rattle the family pictures hanging on the walls resulting in a high degree of wife agro even with the isolation feet installed. Needless to say, most times the subs are running at something slightly less than 1/2 volume and still have plenty of bass with ample headroom for more when needed.Performance wise, I am very happy with the PB 2000 & and Pro combination as they seem to play nice together and will literally rock my world. The pro appears to be slightly more efficient based on how Audssey wanted to configure it.There were a couple of items that needed to be addressed to make this setup acceptable but not enough to warrant a star reduction. The first was the change in the grill design between the 2000 and 2000 pro. I wanted to have both subs to have the same grill and to resolve this, SVS support staff were able to find/sell me a 2000 model grill which fit without issue on the 2000 pro.Unfortunately the second issue is one of design. For whatever reason the blue led light found on the 2000 has been eliminated from the pro version. For what appears to be only a slight savings in cost has removed the visual confirmation that I had so that I could know the speaker is in stand-by mode. With a remote system like mine having that visual would have been nice but I am over it...
Upgraded to the PB2000Pro from the 1000Pro. It’s a big unit that looks like it sounds. Big box, big boom. Shakes my room at 6x6m more than enough. I’ll never drive this monster to its full potential. It’s fantastic. CHT Solutions shipping was fast and communication was excellent. Thanks guys.
First off, I ordered 2 of these for my new home theater from Best Buy vs the svs website due to the fact I could do store pickup after doing lots of research and going back and forth between a few others. Unfortunately, when I got them home and unboxed them, one of them was damaged. The cabinet had a big dent in it, probably wouldn't affect performance, but this is an expensive subwoofer. I called Best Buy and they ordered me another one and had the geek squad deliver it to me and pick up the bad one. They even offered to take all the packaging back with them. Awesome customer service! As for the subwoofers themselves, probably not the best subwoofers if you listen to a lot of music vs movies, but that's not what I bought them for. For movies, these things shake the ... MoreFirst off, I ordered 2 of these for my new home theater from Best Buy vs the svs website due to the fact I could do store pickup after doing lots of research and going back and forth between a few others.

For movies, these things shake the whole house. I have a relatively small home theater room (2000 ft3) and 2 of these have no problem filling the room. When they hit the really low frequencies it feels like there's a fan on in the room because they move so much air! Pretty big though, make sure you have the room for them
The subwoofers are good. However I already have Klipsch R-12SWs and I compared both sets side by side with the similar settings (75 db on Marantz). Here are my observations:1. Klipsch sounds louder and wider. Tried with 5 friends so far (without telling them which one is active) and all of them picked Klipsch. Could be a high gain on Klipsch (or low gain on SVS). SVS sounds deeper.2. SVS can produce frequencies lower than 30 Hz (Klipsch booklet indicates minimum frequency 29 Hz so no surprise).3. Both have useless rubber based grills and are damaged in both.4. SVS has more power but how much that converts into SPL, I do not know.5. People say Klipsch sound may get distorted at certain frequencies and produce more boomy sound. But upto my listening comfort - no ... MoreThe subwoofers are good.

But upto my listening comfort - no issues because I do not like very heavy bass either.6. Both are made in China.SVS is better for sure but I am undecided because of the cost difference (Klipsch - $149- $249 Vs. SVS...). Thank you.I will update after few days: if decides to return SVS or trash Klipsch.
