Reveling in the heavyweight sound of the SVS SB-4000 subwoofer

 

As I looked over SVS's line of all-new 4000 Series subwoofers I was drawn to the SB-4000 mostly because it's a sealed design, not ported. Sealed subs typically have faster, more cleanly defined bass than ported subs. So I had a good feeling about the...

The SVS SB-4000 is a reference-grade subwoofer that doesn't merely dish out room-rattling home theater effects, it's also a very musical sub. I highly recommend it.

Review: SVS SB-4000 Subwoofer

 

My main listening room is used for both music and movies and measures about 1,700 cubic feet. For the past several years I've been using a pair of 15-inch sealed subwoofers with built-in equalization. They worked well but are older, and one developed...

The pair of SB-4000s blended with my main speakers and provided a solid, deep bass foundation with both music and movies without calling attention to themselves. I was able to obtain smooth, accurate bass down to 20Hz across all three of the listening...

The lack of an automated equalization system, a feature common on other subwoofers, makes setup a more hands-on process with the SVS subwoofers. The sealed SB-4000 has significantly less output than its ported brother, the PB-4000, especially below...

What I liked best about the SB-4000 is that it is a great multi-purpose subwoofer that balances brawn with finesse. The Goldilocks of subwoofers, hitting the sweet spot of energy, control, size, features and cost.

Review: SVS SB-4000 | American Lowrider SVS SB-4000

 

Are you one of those people who likes the bass to feel as good as it sounds? Then you will love SVS SB-4000!

This compact sub from SVS serves deep bass in brutal quantities!

The bass is not as tight and impulsive as the best in class

The SVS SB-4000 is a potent subwoofer, with huge amounts of deep bass from a relatively compact cabinet. Here you get a juicy and weighty deep bass that is able to set the whole room in motion! After testing a large number of subwoofers in this size...

Dual SVS SB-4000 Subwoofers “Hands-On” Review

 

OK, first things first, let me get this out of the way: The SVS SB-4000 sealed subwoofer is a beast—a very serious piece of gear. Not only is it very heavy but it happens to be a very capable subwoofer, but without a massive footprint. Yes, that's a...

It has been a joy to have these subs for a hands-on experience. I only wish I could keep them, but a Top Choice no doubt about it. A+.

SVS SB-4000 Subwoofer Review

 

If you want tight, controlled bass for movies and music and space is at a premium, the SVS SB-4000 will fill your room while integrating with your speakers. It does a fantastic job and sounds wonderful in my home theater system.

Tight, controlled bass, flexible setup with remote and app, PEQ to tailor the sound to your room.

No automated EQ setup, lacks the impact on films that their ported subs have.

I’ve listened to many SVS subwoofers in my theater room, and it is basically a Goldilocks situation. The PB-1000 was too small for it and didn’t offer the music performance that I was after. The SB-16 Ultra was too physically large for the space and...
