SVS - SB-3000 Subwoofer - Gloss Piano Black - Open Box - Fair

This is by far the best subwoofer I've ever owned. Was looking to replace a 14 year old Sony sub and I wanted to stay under $400. After doing some research, I pretty much discovered that a good sub starts at $500. Knowing that whatever I purchased would most likely be in use for the next 10 to 20 years. So I bit the bullet and bought the 3000 after reading tons of reviews, YouTube videos, and hearing the excited testimony of some of the Best Buy employees. 3 weeks later, I am now a diehard SVS fanboy. This sub is far beyond my expectations. To be honest my current setup would probably have worked great with a SB 1000 or the 2000. My sub is used in a 7.2 atmos setup powered by a Denon Avr whose primary use is for movies with some occasional music. The svs makes listening to music and watching movies seem like a all new experience. You feel every explosion, punch, crash, and gunshot. Svs makes adjusting the sub a painless task. Download the app and make adjustments from your favorite sitting position. If you're new to home theather, outside of the receiver and tv the 2 most important items you can buy are the subwoofer and your center channel. Don't go cheap on either of those. Buy right, cry once. Buy wrong cry twice. Your ears will thank you.

If you want to truly have that at-home theater experience in your home, look no further than this subwoofer. My husband and I recently upgraded our entire entertainment system, including the purchase of 2 of these subwoofers. I cannot even begin to explain how every fiber of my being feels the sound, especially during movies and listening to music, but even during commercials! The setup was fairly easy and the settings took a bit of tweaking but once we found the sweet spot, we were set. These subwoofers have transformed our living space.

One of the best sub out there . Very solid . I use it for movies and music , very accurate in frequency response . Blend seamlessly with my full range Klipsch Floor standing front speakers.Incredibly low frequency extension. Well designed and built cabinet. If you can bi amp your floor front speakers it’s even better which I did . They only regret I had was not getting it sooner because of its price but Best Buy hooked me up with the 12 mos no interest financing . It’s a win win. So don’t wait and purchase it at Best Buy today.

You can spend 3,4,5k or more on a great sub and frankly it depends on size of your space and quality of unit driving the sub. First of all SVS subs blow away just about anything out there regardless of price. I think their top of line is 2500.00. The SB 3000 is about 1000.00. Worth every penny. Built tough as nails this baby comes in at 55lbs. I tested it with YouTube 40hz , 30hz and 20hz sub test tones. Past each test by rattling my bones not the woofer. Cheaper subs have distorted rattles and cannot handle 40hz at decent volume let alone 30 or 20hz. You aren’t even coming close with Polk, pioneer, JBL or countless other store brands SVS SB 3000 is reference quality. I listen to prog metal, jazz fusion, blues and experimental stuff too all very well recorded and played back in SACD and HiRes. The SVS App makes it easy to dial in from the listening position and works flawlessly. They kept it simple so it works every time! SVS customer experience is second to none! I purchased the SB2000 Pro first and Kudos to Best Buy they exchanged it no problem. The 3000 just seemed like it would be better for Blue Ray movies and streaming and I was right. If I had room I’d get the 4000 lol Honestly you cannot go wrong. Play with settings a little and you will find the sweet spot. I didn’t get the ported option because I listen to more music these days and I like the clarity and punch a sealed sub has.............................subterranean!

I replaced two KEF subs with this one. It blends seamlessly with the other KEF speakers in my home theatre. Deep, satisfying bass with no vibrations customary for cheaper subs. It can literally be felt, especially when watching movies. No regret, except the fact that I didn’t buy two.
