SVS3000 Micro Sealed Subwoofer with Fully Active Dual 8" Drivers (Piano Gloss Black)

As you can see from the picture, I don’t have very much space on that wall. So I took a chance on a very small subwoofer that looks like it could be a small square vase. The base from the subwoofer is very impressive. The subwoofer won’t shake the room, but the sound is deep and all you need to round out a good Home Theater system.

If other subwoofers rely on the force of size, this little guy is Yoda.I wanted something to provide precise low ends for audiophile-grade music, not thunderous booms for movies. Reading reviews of the dual opposing drivers combined with the 800W of power convinced me to give this little guy a try.Glad I did. Wow! Even though I had measured for size, it still struck as. tiny after setup, but surely the sound is not small after listening. Exactly what I was looking for. It perfectly replicated the big round lows of the oft-subdued standing bass in great classic jazz retaining its rich overtones, and added remarkable color to exotic percussion. I had long been fascinated by the sound of Joachim' Cooders "dumbek" in his dad's "Ganges Delta Blues" on "Meeting by the River" (Cooder/Bhat), but this thing made that instrument fill the room with ethereal sound.I knew the mighty little guy was overly capable when my wife was dismayed by house rattles while I was simply listening Getz & Gilberto's famed jazz classic with the volume set on -18dB. The risk to the marriage was not only remedied by picking up the SVS "Sound Isolation System" (special rubber feet), but the chosen solution further sharpened the sound eliminating imperfect room modes.The SVS mobile app made setup and configuration super easy including the low-pass filter tool which recommended an 80 Hz low pass frequency for my speakers (3D Acoustics 3D8's) that worked well. After playing with it a bit over time, I settled on a 24 dB "slope" setting as giving the cleanest sound thus letting my primary speakers take over pretty quickly above that.Can't speak to pros and cons for chair-rattling theater applications, but this little guy punches WAY above its weight for high fidelity music. Think I'm just gonna call it Yoda as it packs a whole lotta force in a tiny little body.

I wanted a subwoofer for under my desk and this was perfect. Really small but also really powerful full and with its smaller form factor I’m less likely to kick it or hit it with the chair. It’s a really powerful bass and you can definitely feel it if you’ve tuned it or turned the sound up loud enough.

Such a great subwoofer! Packs a punch for such a small unit!

The SVS 3000 micro sealed subwoofer has dual 8-inch speakers on opposing sides of the cube. It's small, light-weight, and has easy-to-use rear controls. I installed this using the LFE jack on my receiver, which means that the bass is pretty much managed by the receiver! After messaging SVS about an app problem where the new sub wasn't showing up, I deleted and reinstalled the app, and both my SVS PB16-Ultra and the new SVS 3000 Micro subs showed up! With the app, it's super easy to customize the sup, and to adjust the sub's volume.I purchased this sub to add bass to a stereo system in my office that uses some KEF R3 Meta bookshelf speakers that didn't quite have enough bass. In my small office space, this 3000 Micro sub provides just enough bass and punch to make my music fun! The sub isn't big enough or powerful enough for home theater, nor for larger rooms. But in my case, its small size and great looks blend perfectly into its setting, and the bass blends seamlessly with my bookshelf's sound. Highly recommended for small rooms where you're not needing a ton of bass!

I have this is going down to about 27 HZ for me in a small bedroom with measurements taken at 75 decibels. The SVS app rules with the three-band parametric equalizer to help even out the bass. Then I can do further equalization on my amplifier. I connected this briefly to my my Denon home theater and tested edge of Tomorrow intro sequence with it and it was shaking the floors and the shelves to a similar degree as my SVS sb1000 pro. So this is a very capable small subwoofer for is size. It's important to note though that I don't listen at high levels over 80 decibels so if you're somebody who needs to listen at really high volumes then you need a bigger subwoofer. With it being small it's easy to move it around from location to location. So sometimes I am moving it to a TV in a guest room where we play video games to be able to get the low end for the video games. Using the app makes volume adjustments really easy on the fly. Plus I have two presets to work one for when it's in the small bedroom and one for when it's in the guest room connected to the TV for quick switching between equalization , crossover, and volume profiles. Wish it was a little bit cheaper but so worth it because of the app and the sound quality

I tried a few different subwoofers. I didn't like the options for REL connectivity (speaker wires) - when it worked it sounded great but there was often a hum I couldn't get rid of. I liked the form factor of the small KEF but it lacked punch. The SVS 2000 Micro is perfect for my room and my needs - it's just small enough to be more felt than seen, and it adds dynamics to the music. This can be connected via RCA cables which makes it easy. The app helps me tune and control the frequency and has largely been "set it and forget it." It's a great product I'd recommend to anyone looking for a small sub that is easy to use.
