For Sale SVS Sound PB2000 Subwoofer (Active / Powered)

Further Information

Hi guys, Happy New year ! 

Starting the year with an upgrade to my subs, therefore my trusted SVS PB-2000 pair, are no longer required and has to go. The Subs are in a great physical and functional condition.

If you already have one in your setup, placing another one in the room makes a significat difference with the actual in-room response, and showed/proved below. 

I had 2 for sale, 1 sold and 1 more for sale as listed here.  

The sub looks great with the metal grill, and I loved the form factor with the rounded edges and significantly manageable weight ! 

I like this design quite a bit, that I upgraded to it's bigger brother PB-3000 to keep the aesthetics but with improved performance and flexibility. 

These have been in a small/medium sized dedicated HT room (4.3 x4m) , and in a dual setup have been working very moderately.

Both plate amps have been swapped out in the last 2-3 years.

First one was because I broke the LFE RCA socket while trying to plug in a cable that had a tight plug.

Second sub wouldn't go into auto-standy. I both cases SVS support have been great and essentially send me new replacements.

Along with the pictures of the subs, I've also attached a couple of REW measurements snapshots.

Measurements were taken in-room before I removed them from their default location -  diagonal corners of the room as you can see in the pics as well.

These are done directly to the subs withouth any AVR in path or room correction/eq applied.

First measurement shows the near-field (about 50 cm from the subs) with Var smoothing.

Both subs perform essentially identical, and without much or any degradation in freq response.

Second measurements shows the subs measured from the main listening position (without any room calibration/dsp/peq applied)

We can see the suckouts due to the room, that occurs in different regions of the response with the individual subs.

But together in diagonol corners in the room, they provide an almost flat response from the MLP.

With room calibration or simple PEQ, I can get this to almost flat from about 18Hz to 80Hz.  

This shows the importance of multiple bass sources to even out response. The suck-outs can't be fixed with calibration/peq.
