  • Digital Trends names SB16-Ultra "2020 Subwoofer of the Year"

    “We’ve had the SB-16 Ultra in our testing chambers for many months now — not because we’re too lazy to move it out, but because we haven’t found anything worthy to take its place. This subwoofer has become our measuring stick, which might actually be unfair to the competition — it’s that good. Offers everything you could want in a subwoofer – high-end power, impressive clarity, precise detail, and good looks too.”

  • SB-3000 Subwoofer Receives The Master Switch's "Editors Choice" Award

    “What SVS have done with their DSP here is nothing short of miraculous. Quite simply, it leaves its competitors in the dust. Audio quality was meaty and muscular, and while it felt controlled, it never lost its sense of fun. We don’t think we’ve heard sound this good in a subwoofer below about $2,000. It knocked our damn socks off!

  • Heimkino Names 2000 Pro Series "Outstanding Product"

    “Both woofers in the laboratory test easily reach lower limit frequencies of fabulous 18 Hertz with enormous output levels, whereby the ported cabinet PB-2000 Pro brings a little more dynamic reserves and thrust. The strengths of the sealed SB-2000 Pro lie more in its crisp, pinpoint accurate playing style. For a price of around 1,000 euros, both models offer first-class sound, extremely deep playback and plenty of level reserves. ”
  • Sound & Vision Names SB-2000 Pro as "Top Pick" for Subwoofers
