  • FutureAudiophile reviews SB-4000 Subwoofer

    “One of the best performers as well as a stunningly good value. I am not sure that there is a much better sounding option at any price. If you want to hear all of the music… If you want to rock your gaming system in ways nobody has ever heard (or felt) before… If you want to make a TV show or movie sound like your ass is parked in an IMAX theater, you might need an SVS SB-4000. Or two. You are in for one hell of an audio ride”

  • Home Theater Review Names SB-4000 “Best 12-inch Subwoofer”

    “13.5" of Pure SVS Sealed Subwoofer Power and Precision. OK, we admit this subwoofer is something a bit beyond a 12". SVS lists it as a 13.5-incher. But the reason we are including it here is the SB-4000, being a sealed design, has the compactness you expect from 12-inch class subs. And since it's an upper-tier SVS offering, its capabilities in the bass-making department earn it an Editor's Choice award.”

  • TONE Audio Reviews the PC-4000 Subwoofer

    "Digs down deep. In a larger room, it was easy to achieve near concert hall levels, and we could not drive the PC-4000 to clipping or exceed the woofers excursion levels. Excellent upper bass response, with low coloration, making it easy to mate with a wide range of main speakers. If you need bass, and floor space is at a premium, the SVS PC-4000 is the way to go."

  • AVReport.ru Reviews the SB-4000 Subwoofer (Russia)

    "Brutal, but beautiful in its own way. Deep, smooth and superbly fast bass. Potent, clear and energetic with movies and pristinely natural with music. Output from the SB-4000 is so seamlessly and inconspicuously stitched with the voices of speakers it provides a clear transfer of details and an accurate attack. A rare quality for a subwoofer."

  • SB-4000 Subwoofer Receives Stereoplay’s Highlight 2018 Award (Germany).

    "Galactic good. Blended seamlessly with multiple speakers and it showed sovereignty in all aspects. Deep bass notes were crisp and clean with no overhang. Its high dynamic reserves gave the SB-4000 a nonchalance and we never got the feeling of reaching its limits. SVS SB-4000 is one of the best subwoofer offers ever, especially considering its moderate price. It can be deep and precise, even with its monster thrust and the immense power reserves make it suitable for home theaters or audiophile systems."

  • HXOS+ SoundVision (Greece) Review the SB-4000 Subwoofer

    “The SB-4000 is a "scary" subwoofer full of energy. From the very first Hz onward, mainly felt in the chest and your belly, to the last ones around the cut-off frequency, comfort and a velvety timbre are the dominant factors. No matter how hard we tried we could not make it reach its limits.”

  • KpaceGuy Reviews the PB-4000 Subwoofer

    “This subwoofer sounds phenomenal. For a 13-inch driver to sound as crisp and accurate as it does is just a testament to SVS engineering prowess. Plus, the PB-4000 hits down to 16Hz with authority. Action movies, explosions, car races, helicopters, it doesn’t matter what, the subwoofer just immerses you and makes you feel things your would normally just miss. It just doesn’t get any better than this.”

  • HomeCinemaMagazine.nl (Netherlands) Reviews the SB-4000 Subwoofer

    "With the SB-4000 you get a subwoofer that is immensely powerful and dives very deeply - and that also works smoothly in large spaces. It is also incredibly fast, so that bass is served accurately and compellingly. At the same time, it is also able to subtly support your surround speakers. It is not only suitable for rough work. We never thought to stick this label to this giant, but it is ... yes, refined."
