SVS SB-3000 Overview

Experience staggering cinematic sound and low-bass extension down to 17Hz with the SVS SB-3000 R|Evolution 13" 1200W Subwoofer. Featuring a 13" high-excursion SVS driver and powerful MOSFET amplifier housed in a sealed non-resonant cabinet, the SB-3000 R|Evolution delivers a room-energizing low-frequency experience for listeners seeking pinpoint bass response and refined low-end articulation.

High-Excursion 13" Driver
The beating heart of SB-3000 R|Evolution is a high-excursion 13" driver with groundbreaking voice coil design engineered for immense, effortless output with surgical accuracy.

  • Flat-edge split-wind voice coil maximizes magnetic force at high excursion while maintaining ultra-low mass for responsiveness and efficiency
  • Two-piece toroidal ferrite magnet overhung motor maintains precise linearity to drive the highest levels of excursion, SPL, and start/stop power for the deepest, most authoritative bass possible from a 13" driver
  • Rigid 1100 pure aluminum cone is lightweight and neutral for convincing, distortion-free output, even at extreme levels
  • Long-throw extreme excursion SBR surround maintains ideal piston-like motion while enabling massive driver movement for clean, room-pressurizing low end
STA-1200D2 MOSFET Amplifier
Conservatively rated at 1,200 watts continuous and 4,000 watts peak power, the STA-1200D2 amplifier maximizes the 13" driver's full potential with effortless power and absolute control. Its pioneering design combines the efficiency of a class-D amplifier with the ability to move massive current through the fully discrete MOSFETs, for outstanding real-world subwoofer performance at all drive levels.

  • High current MOSFET output with class-D efficiency allows the STA-1200D2 amplifier to move massive amounts of current through the fully discrete MOSFETs, enabling the 13" driver to fully maximize on its potential with output beyond reference levels with control and accuracy
  • Performance enhancing SVS switch mode power supply maximizes system performance and reliability under all operating conditions by monitoring amplifier and AC main output voltage/current as well as multiple temperature sensors
  • Premium-grade 56-bit digital audio processing and premium DACs (Digital-to-Analog Converters) with more than 120 dB signal-to-noise ratio provide greater headroom, lower noise, and flawless fidelity
  • Balanced XLR input for pristine audiophile performance and long-distance cable runs
  • Compatible with consumer and pro audio systems
Acoustically Inert, Rigidly Braced Sealed Cabinet Design
Sealed cabinet design yields tighter, more musical bass and makes it significantly more compact than ported-box subwoofers with comparable drivers and amplifiers.

  • Rigid MDF front baffle and internal bracing support the massive drive unit and ensure an acoustically inert environment
  • Highly reinforced internal design and acoustic insulation eliminate all coloration or resonance from the cabinet, even when the deepest low frequencies are played at reference volume
  • Protective non-resonant extra-thick ABS grille frame with fabric mesh cover shields driver to prevent damage while ensuring longevity
  • Custom elastomer feet reduce noise artifacts within a room
  • Rear panel OLED and control interface provide fast and direct control of the most important features (includes a convenient "Display Flip" function)
295 MHz Analog Devices DSP
Orchestrating the cutting-edge amplifier, motor, and driver ecosystem is the most sophisticated DSP ever deployed in a home audio subwoofer.

  • Accurately shapes in-room frequency response with absolute precision for faithful signal reproduction
  • Monitors every function of the amplifier to stabilize AC voltage delivery to the power supply to maintain consistent peak output
  • Multi-point thermal, voltage, and current monitoring systems ensure maximum output and efficiency
  • Advanced digital audio processing and DACs (Digital-to-Analog Converters) with 120 dB signal-to-noise ratio provide greater headroom, lower noise, and pristine fidelity
SVS Subwoofer Smartphone Control App
Convenient subwoofer tuning and control from the comfort of your favorite seat. Works via Bluetooth with Apple iOS, Google Android, and Amazon Fire platforms.

  • Controls for volume, low pass filter, phase, polarity, six parametric equalizers, room gain compensation, tuning modes, power management settings, and more
  • Three memory presets to save system settings matched to your listening preferences - music, movies, night mode, and more

SVS SB-3000 Reviews

Compact beauty.

If you were expecting wall shaking bass you may be disappointed. Previously, I used Velodyne 18 in and then a 12 in Velodyne. Amps failed on both so I researched a replacement. This subwoofer was used to compliment electrostatic speakers which were weak in the low frequencies. This subwoofer was perfectly suited for this purpose. I use them mostly for music and have been very pleased. For movies and surround sound it won't move the air like the 18 inch Velodyne but it is certainly adequate. It was the perfect addition for my specific setup.
