SVS PB-1000 Pro Ported Subwoofer (Premium Black Ash)

The SVS PB-1000 Pro is one of those rare subs that instantly elevates your whole setup the moment you plug it in. If you want chest-filling bass that’s both powerful and controlled, without spending crazy money, this is hands down one of the best options on the market. Bass Performance, Deep, Tight, and Surprisingly Precise The PB-1000 Pro digs deep. We’re talking bass you don’t just hear—you feel. Even in large rooms, it delivers room-shaking low-end extension without losing clarity. Movies hit harder, explosions feel cinematic, and music gains weight and realism. The ported design gives you that big, enveloping bass, but SVS manages to keep it clean and tight rather than boomy. Music + Movies are Equally Impressive Some subs excel at movies and fall apart with music. Not this one. Kick drums stay punchy instead of muddy, bass guitars have definition, and low synth notes remain smooth all the way down. For home theater, the PB-1000 Pro brings impact that makes even familiar scenes feel brand new. For music, it fills out the low end without overwhelming mids or highs. The app control is Genuinely Useful SVS’s Bluetooth app isn’t a gimmick, it’s easily one of the most convenient features. Adjust volume, phase, room gain, and EQ presets right from your seat. It makes dialing in the sub much easier than crawling behind it over and over. Performance for the Price, Outstanding Value This sub competes with models that cost dramatically more. The amount of output and control SVS squeezed into this price range is impressive, and the build quality is excellent. You can push it hard without distortion, and it never feels like it’s struggling. Final Verdict The SVS PB-1000 Pro delivers deep, thunderous bass with refinement, backed by modern features and exceptional engineering. Whether you’re building your first serious home theater or upgrading a mid-level system, this is one of the smartest buys you can make. If you want bass that’s powerful, clean, and genuinely fun, the PB-1000 Pro will absolutely make you smile.

I've been using an basic active subwoofer that came with my 7.1 Onkyo stereo set for about 10 years. My living room is 16x12 with standard ceilings, sub against the wall near the front corner. Bass was OK but never felt like it could hit the lows and only had gain control. I knew that a simple upgrade to my home stereo would be getting a quality subwoofer replacement. After researching and reading many reviews, I landed on the SVS PB-1000 Pro. I'm still not sure if I should have gone with the non-ported option, SVS SB-1000 Pro, or something from the 2000 series. That being said, I'm very happy with the SVS PB-1000 Pro. I was worried abut it being under powered at 325 watts RMS, as I have a 10" sub powered with 500 watt RMS in a sealed box in my custom car stereo. No worries there, this sub rocks my condo. I had to dial back the gain and I've been messing with the 'room compensation' option that seems to help keep it from too boomy in the 25-50 Hz range. I love me some bass and this sub can rock the low-low end, I just don't think my upstairs neighbors would love hearing my new setup as much as I do. I really only use the stereo with this sub to watch movies and TV, though I did try some music of different genres. Movies\TV shows are great with solid response on this sub. The intro to Netflix's 'Jessica Jones' sounded totally different with this sub adding a low end I didn't even know was there. 'A Quiet Place' sounded fantastic as the sub mixed very well in the action and tense senses, filling the my living room with a sense of dread. Bass heavy\EDM type of music sounded good, though I felt like I had to turn down the gain otherwise the sub would overpower the mix. Again I love bass but appreciate a balanced mix and don't want to bother the neighbors too much. I did sense some boomyness or port noise(?) on heavy hits, and that reminded me of my choice to get a sealed sub box in my car to achieve a more accurately timed and balanced sound. Some other music like mid 90s rock\alternative, classical, and soundtracks sounded good but kept the sub at a more tame level. Basically if the song is bass heavy, the sub will stick out more (I know obvious right?) and in most everything else the sub more purrs in the background. I think there's some mid-bass I'm missing with my stereo that most music needs that could be solved by raising the sub crossover from my 120Hz to 200Hz, though that would muddy the sub a bit. Next on my list is to upgrade my primary speakers - center, left, and right, to try to get better room-filling sound with richer mid-bass and more accurate highs. Overall, solid 'A' grade from an experienced bass-head and picky listener. Big and solid sound. Really nice to have a wide range of controls with the Bluetooth app. Seems to be quality material and a good value for the sub + box + amplifier components. I may get the port plugs and try out how the sub sounds as a psuedo-sealed box.

I've used mostly polk subs but also dual Klipsch subs for a while, witch I didn't find any better then a cheap polk, after that I thought more expensive subs are probably just a waste of money for me, so this sub was definitely a test as I didn't think it would wow me. This sub is amazing. I will say my room is smaller, 11x20ft, and if it was much bigger I think you might need two for the same impact, but for my size room this can go way louder then I need it, to pressurize a bigger room (at least 400+ square ft) might be hard with one though. I didn't expect it to do alot for music honestly because I already have good tower speakers, but it really brings the music to life, even at low volumes you can really hear a difference. I've never experienced this with a sub but the really good sounding lows seem to make the mids sound a lot better too, even when you think you can't hear the sub or feel it at low volumes, when you turn it off the difference is extremely noticeable. For live music played louder it makes you feel like your at the show. It can be more boomy if you like that, but you can definately set it really tight for music so even an organ won't sound boomy, just extremely low pitched. For movies and games this sub is outstanding, movies are like being at the theatre and it brings games to a whole other level, especially fps or action games. Try out "The Game Has Changed - Daft punk" for some extreme bass and infrasonic bass, or watch the move Tron, that song is in the movie, and the whole movie has lots of infrasonic bass to tune the sub. The app for it is the best thing that has ever happened to subwoofers, I love that I can have a movie, music and night mode set in the app and switch between them right on my phone, changing multiple settings with one click, instead of climbing behind the sub. I waited a while to write this because I wasn't sure how I felt about the value of it (1475$ cad when I bought it), it is extremely expensive, but after using it for a few months, I would consider getting another one eventually, it's that good. And I don't think I could ever enjoy movies or music as much again without a sub as good as this one. It really brings the sound to another level if you have good speakers, especially compared to cheaper subs, witch I was surprised about, I thought a sub was a sub.

This is the best Subwoofer I have ever owned, my old Rel Subwoofer had too many issue so replaced it with this one after a lot of searching. I would like to point out the best part is the App so you can alter the setting on the fly in seconds and the sound Quality is just excellent very happy with it. This is 100% better then the Rel Subwoofer which was my old one that had way too many problems with. Really glad I replaced my Rel sub for this one cost a lot more but way way better well worth replacing. Got to love the Svs App....
