Know before you buy
The subwoofer uses a dual-opposing driver design. Because the two 8-inch drivers fire in opposite directions, the mechanical energy cancels itself out, preventing the cabinet from vibrating or 'walking' across the floor during intense bass passages.
Yes. The SVS smartphone app connects via Bluetooth, allowing you to adjust volume, crossover frequencies, and EQ settings directly from your phone. It provides a much more precise way to tune the bass to your specific room than physical knobs.
It is designed to excel at both. The sealed cabinet design and fast, active drivers provide the tight, accurate response needed for music, while the 800-watt RMS amplifier delivers enough impact and depth to handle demanding movie soundtracks.
While the 3000 Micro is impressively powerful for its size, it is optimized for smaller to medium-sized rooms. If you have a very large, open-concept space, you may need a larger ported subwoofer to achieve the same level of room-filling pressure.
No, it is compatible with virtually any home theater receiver or stereo amplifier that has a subwoofer output. Its compact size and sealed design make it very easy to integrate into existing speaker systems without overwhelming your current setup.
