SVS PB-3000 R|Evolution 13" Ported Subwoofer - Premium Black Ash

SVS PB-3000 R|Evolution Subwoofer

The SVS PB-3000 R|Evolution is a ported cabinet subwoofer engineered for room-pressurizing output down to 16 Hz with the control and refinement of a true reference design. Built around an all-new 13-inch high-excursion driver and a 1,200-watt continuous MOSFET amplifier, it delivers deep, tactile bass with speed, accuracy, and detail for cinematic and musical impact.

Deep, room-filling low-frequency extension

PB-3000 R|Evolution energizes the room with bass that digs to 16–235 Hz ±3 dB in Standard mode and 17–270 Hz ±3 dB in Sealed mode. Its dual-ported architecture and roll-off optimized to leverage room gain provide greater dynamic headroom and clean extension, with 20% to 60% lower acoustic THD+N in critical low-frequency bands compared to the previous generation.

• Dual-ported cabinet with two high-flow 3.5-inch rounded ports for deeper extension and greater SPL without a trace of port noise.
• Variable Port Tuning modes with included port plugs (Standard and Sealed) to tailor output or transient speed.
• Rigid MDF front baffle, extensive internal bracing, and acoustic insulation to eliminate coloration or resonance at reference volume.

High-excursion 13-inch driver engineering

An all-new 13-inch SVS high-excursion driver unleashes impactful low frequencies with precision. Design breakthroughs maximize magnetic force and maintain low moving mass for responsiveness and efficiency, producing room-shaking output with unerring accuracy.

• Flat-Edge Split-Wind Voice Coil for maximum magnetic force at high excursion with ultra-low mass.
• Two-Piece Toroidal Ferrite Magnet Overhung Motor for precise linearity, high SPL, and start/stop power.
• Rigid 1100 Pure Aluminum Cone for neutral, distortion-free output at extreme levels.
• Long-Throw SBR surround maintains ideal pistonic motion while enabling massive driver movement.

Power with control: STA-1200D2 MOSFET amplifier + 295 MHz DSP

The STA-1200D2 combines Class D efficiency with fully discrete MOSFET output to deliver 1,200 watts continuous and 4,000+ watts peak with absolute control. A 295 MHz Analog Devices DSP accurately shapes in-room response and monitors thermal, voltage, and current conditions for consistent peak output, greater headroom, lower noise, and pristine fidelity.

• High Current MOSFET output with Class-D efficiency for effortless, reference-level performance.
• Performance-enhancing SMPS monitors amplifier and AC mains for reliability under all conditions.
• Premium 56-bit digital audio processing and DACs with more than 120 dB SNR.
• Balanced XLR (18 kΩ) and unbalanced RCA (10 kΩ) inputs for consumer and pro audio compatibility.
• Rear Panel OLED and Control Interface with convenient “Display Flip” function.

Convenient smartphone app control and tuning

The SVS Subwoofer Control App works via Bluetooth with Apple iOS, Google Android, and Amazon Fire, enabling comfortable, seat-side tuning. Users can adjust volume, low pass filter, phase, polarity, six parametric EQs, room gain compensation, tuning modes, and power management, with three memory presets for music, movies, or night mode. SVS Auto Room EQ for in-room optimization is coming soon.

• Variable Port Tuning modes with included port plugs for customized response curves.
• Three convenient presets to match listening preferences.
• SVS Auto Room EQ (coming soon) for automated in-room performance optimization.

Acoustically inert, installation-friendly design

The dual-ported, braced MDF cabinet and protective components maintain clean, resonance-free output at the deepest frequencies. Practical touches simplify setup and integration in home theater systems.

• Robust MDF construction with internal bracing; acoustically inert, resonance-free performance.
• Protective non-resonant extra-thick ABS grille frame with fabric mesh cover.
• Screw-in iso-elastomer feet reduce noise artifacts and improve stability.
• USB power for SVS SoundPath Wireless Audio Adapter (sold separately), plus 3.5 mm trigger and IR inputs.
• Premium Black Ash finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the PB-3000 R|Evolution’s frequency response?

  16–235 Hz ±3 dB in Standard mode (all ports open) and 17–270 Hz ±3 dB in Sealed mode (all ports sealed). In small to mid-size rooms, expect 2–3 Hz deeper extension.

• How can bass tuning be customized?

  Variable Port Tuning modes with included port plugs provide Standard or Sealed responses. The SVS app adds control over volume, low pass, phase, polarity, six parametric EQs, room gain compensation, power management, and three memory presets.

• What amplifier and DSP are used?

  The STA-1200D2 MOSFET amplifier (1,200 watts continuous, 4,000+ watts peak) pairs with a 295 MHz Analog Devices DSP and premium 56-bit processing/DACs (>120 dB SNR) to deliver precise, low-noise performance with comprehensive system monitoring.

• What inputs and on-unit controls are available?

  Balanced XLR (18 kΩ) and unbalanced RCA (10 kΩ) inputs, plus a Rear Panel OLED and Control Interface with a “Display Flip” function. USB power supports the SVS SoundPath Wireless Audio Adapter (sold separately), with 3.5 mm trigger and IR inputs for integration.

• How does the cabinet design reduce noise and resonance?

  A dual-ported, rigidly braced MDF cabinet with acoustic insulation and two high-flow 3.5-inch rounded ports provides dynamic headroom without port noise, while a protective ABS grille and iso-elastomer feet further minimize artifacts.
