SVS SB-1000 Classic - Sealed Box Home SubwooferSB 1000 Small subwoofer cabinets are not conducive to big bass, which presented a challenge for SVS engineers when designing the SB 1000 and its compact 13x13x13 inch enclosure. Refusing to sacrifice performance for size, SVS engineers threw out preconceived notions and designed a subwoofer with massive output and remarkable low frequency extension, especially relative to its size and price. All without sacrificing accuracy, detail, and musicality.
SB-1000
Small subwoofer cabinets are not conducive to big bass, which presented a challenge for SVS engineers when designing the SB-1000 and its compact 13x13x13-inch enclosure. Refusing to sacrifice performance for size, SVS engineers threw out preconceived notions and designed a subwoofer with massive output and remarkable low frequency extension, especially relative to its size and price. All without sacrificing accuracy, detail, and musicality.
Quick Specs

- Dimension | 13.5" (H) 13" (W) 14" (D)
At first glance, it’s easy to underestimate the impact of the SB-1000 subwoofer based on size alone. But when it erupts to life with deep and hard-hitting bass, there’s no mistaking it’s a bona fide, high performance subwoofer.
Commanding 12-inch SVS High-Excursion Driver
SVS packed the compact SB-1000 subwoofer with a front-firing 12-inch driver, massive dual ferrite magnets and FEA-optimized internal motor technology for high output with extremely low distortion. The lightweight cone material of the long-stroke driver reproduces subtle audio tones and massive low frequency impact with lifelike realism. Durable rubber surrounds ensure long-lasting performance, even when the subwoofer is pushed to its performance limits for extended periods of time. Authoritative and musical, the SB-1000 a perfect option for serious music or home theater lovers.
Powerful and Sophisticated Sledge STA-300D Amplifier
Conservatively rated at 300 watts RMS, 700+ watts peak power, the Sledge STA-300D amplifier maintains precise control of the subwoofer at all drive levels so you can push to reference volumes without distortion. A sophisticated DSP is perfectly tuned to the unique driver and cabinet configuration and its equalization curve is optimized for enhanced transient response and room gain, making the subwoofer sound much bigger than its size. The SB-1000’s ability to start and stop on a dime and stay true to the source material is a performance hallmark normally reserved for much more expensive subwoofers. The advanced DSP engine also allows for fine tuning of audio playback and easy set-up and integration into any home theater or stereo system.
SB-1000 Awarded "Best Subwoofer for Small Spaces" by Wirecutter
"Measuring 13½ by 13 by 14⅝ inches (HWD), it’s compact enough to hide under many end tables, yet this 12-inch subwoofer actually exceeds the performance of some larger subs we tested. Its punchy, well-defined sound makes it better for music than for action movies, but it’ll do a respectable job with anything you play through it."
Sonically Inert and Rigidly Braced Cabinet
Thermal management is critical when dealing with such a powerful amplifier and motor in a compact sealed cabinet, so SVS implemented a unique vented pole piece and efficient high-power voice coil to keep the SB-1000 subwoofer cool without impacting performance or adding noise. The cabinet is rigidly braced and sonically inert so the bass you hear is always effortless and pure, even at the highest drive levels.
Weighing in at an easily movable 27 lbs, the SB-1000 is SVS’s lightest and smallest subwoofer, making its 24Hz to 260Hz (+/- 3dB) frequency response all the more impressive.
Press Reviews
Buying Guides reviews SB-1000 Subwoofer
“It's so crisp, precise and agile that, again, I've never heard anything like it before…Reproducing frequencies so deep that it goes all the way to 24hz with astonishing forcefulness and all without blinking an eye.”
Home Theater Hobbyist Reviews the PB-1000 and SB-1000 Subwoofers
“Excellent output and deep extension but also great balance and extremely detailed bass. Both can play music and movies and you’ll have an enjoyable experience regardless. And while there are advantages to each subwoofer, the impressive designs deliver the best of both ported and sealed world’s with both models.”
HT Hobbyist (YouTube) Reviews the SB-1000 Subwoofer
“Able to energize my room and punch me in the chest, which was surprising for such a compact sub. It’s very accurate, very articulate and sounds incredible for music. Absolutely beautiful sound.”
CNET Names SB-1000 Best Subwoofer Under $500
“I've used a lot of subwoofers in my time, but nothing has so far matched SVS in terms of value for money. I use the larger SB-4000 as part of the CNET test system, but the SB-1000 is a great sub. It's compact and offers satisfyingly deep bass for both movies and music. It makes a great companion to single soundbars with a sub out connection too.”
The Pixelated Gamer Reviews the SB-1000
"The SVS SB-1000 is an absolute workhorse and decimates the competition anywhere near its $500 price tag. Its compact size allows it to be placed just about anywhere, perfect for small to medium sized rooms. The sealed design and advanced DSP on-board delivers outstanding responsiveness, where each bass hit from the durable 12″ driver is shockingly fast and clean. This model shines in precision and clarity, delivering a wonderfully balanced experience. As it stands, the SB-1000 sub is the undisputed king at its price point and simply a phenomenal performer."
HiFi Class (Poland) gives SB-1000 Five Stars
“Massive, springy and strong bass from a small compact box. Effective and precise sound in a multi-channel configuration. It will also well complement the sound in the lowest tones of the classic stereo systems. Difficult to upset even when I forced it to work at higher than average volume levels - the bass was always played with proper control, without compression or audible distortions. Boasts performance I would expect from much more expensive constructions.”
Gadgetreview.com - James Pikover Reviews the SB-1000
"The SVS SB-1000 is a powerful and price-conscience subwoofer to give your entertainment center the bass it doesn’t just need, but that it deserves… I can’t recommend the SB-1000 enough."
The Man Cave Cinema Reviews the SB-1000
“…butter smooth and hard hitting at the same time……you will most definitely fall in love with it, like I did. Also for $499 you just can’t go wrong."

"This has to be one of the best bang-for-buck subwoofers in the market right now."

Put in a blu-ray with a pounding soundtrack though and the laughter will stop, because it's probably going to leave you amazed."PB-1000
"The PB1000 handled its sweeps down to "feel it" level... the bass was potent and rich...and had a very clean presentation to boot. I could actually feel it in my chest...with powerful depth and impact."
