SVS 3000 Micro Dual 8' 2500W Subwoofer (Piano Gloss Black)

Add powerful bass to your home entertainment experience with the piano gloss black SVS 3000 Micro Dual 8" 2500W Subwoofer. It features two opposed 8" side-firing woofers with 800W of RMS power and 2500W of peak power for ground-shaking performance in nearly any listening environment. With a frequency response of 23 to 240 Hz, the 3000 Micro is equipped to handle virtually all types of listening material.

Fully Active Dual Opposing 8" Drivers

A first-ever design for SVS, two fully active 8" woofers are mounted on opposite sides of the sealed cabinet and move in perfect unison to generate stunning low frequency output with crisp, musical transients. The usable surface area of two fully active 8" woofers firing in opposite directions achieves performance on par with significantly larger single-driver subwoofers. Its tight, punchy output obliterates multi-driver passive radiator subwoofer designs known for their bloated and boomy sound.

By firing in opposite directions, the mechanical energy transferred to the cabinet is effectively canceled out. This creates a sonically inert environment and solves the longtime curse of micro subwoofers, which are known to " dance" or " walk" across the room.

The active dual drivers are connected in parallel to a single power amplifier. Each receives the same amount of current, ensuring pinpoint control and more precise, accurate bass. The use of aluminum throughout the woofer, from bobbin to cone, creates a lightweight, stiff, and thermally optimized driver without resonances or extraneous vibrations.

Each high-excursion driver employs a progressive inverted surround to ensure maximum linear displacement. This is imperative for moving massive amounts of air and generating sound pressure levels you can feel at the deepest frequencies from such a small enclosure.

Innovative Motor Assembly Maximizes Current Delivery

An oversized, vented motor structure is optimized for efficient thermal and mechanical-energy management in a confined space. Massive electromagnetic force produced by the motor, in symphony with the high-current driving power of the Sledge amplifier, allows the 3000 Micro to maximize on the output potential of the dual drivers.

• Lightweight, rigid aluminum vented cone with composite fiber dustcap generates massive output with pinpoint accurate frequency response.
• Long-throw parabolic surround and proprietary injection molded gasket ensure longevity and allow extreme excursion for room-energizing bass.

Massive Output with Precise Driver Control

A driver is only potential and requires and equally potent amplifier. Extreme challenges existed for SVS engineers when designing an amplifier capable of powering fully active dual 8" drivers at reference levels in a micro-sized cabinet. How to maximize SPLs while maintaining accuracy? How to optimize on the potential of room gain? How to maintain proper cooling while achieving massive SPLs?

SVS met these challenges with the 800-watt RMS power Sledge STA-800D2 power amplifier that combines the high-current output of discrete MOSFETs with Class-D efficiency and the processing power of an Analog Devices DSP. The 3000 Micro subwoofer s amplifier effortlessly produces sustained high-current output for the most difficult low frequency playback without clipping or bottoming out. Convincing, high-impact audio experiences without a trace of distortion.

• High current output from fully discrete MOSFETs with the efficiency of Class-D amplification allows the Sledge STA-800D2 amplifier to generate massive amounts of current enabling immense output with surgical precision.
• Optimized frequency response curves for the sealed-cabinet 3000 Micro allow the subwoofer to take control of a room and pressurize it with accurate, heart-pounding, acoustically tuned bass.
• Sophisticated multi-band limiters enable the system to effortlessly move air and with complete control, even when played at extreme levels.

Sophisticated 50 MHz DSP Engine for Unrivaled Processing Power

A 50 MHz Analog Devices DSP, normally reserved for high-end separate audio components, delivers sophisticated control and custom response curves optimized for real-world output and acoustically tuned room gain.

DSP plays a huge role in making the 3000 Micro subwoofer sound far bigger than its size. SVS engineers painstakingly crafted an in-room frequency response curve that fully maximizes on the potential of a room s boundaries to produce greater output and deeper bass extension without bloat or boominess. The result: a subwoofer that far exceeds expectations given its size.

3000 Micro Smartphone App for Control and DSP Management

The most convenient way to control volume, access multiple DSP functions, and program custom preset tuning profiles optimized for music, movies, gaming, and more. All accessible with a single touch. Adjust crossover frequencies, a three-band parametric EQ, polarity, room gain, and more, all from your favorite seat.

• Connects via Bluetooth for convenient control even when subwoofer is out of sight.
• Saved custom presets for one-touch tuning with optimized settings based on listening preferences for movies, music, and more, with one-touch access.
• Three-band parametric EQ controller allows precise adjustments for boost or cut, Q-factor, and frequency down to the single Hz level to eliminate peaks, nulls, and other room issues.

Rear Panel Intelligent Control Interface (ICI)

The rear-panel SVS Intelligent Control Interface (ICI) provides control options and connections for the subwoofer s most critical functions.

• Level control fine tunes the overall output level that best matches the system and room.
• Low pass filter control ensures smooth sonic transitions and seamless blending with the main speakers.
• Phase control aligns the subwoofer s output timing with the main speakers or additional subwoofers.
• USB port provides power for the optional SVS SoundPath Wireless Audio Adapter, which eliminates the need for a cable run to the subwoofer from the source component.
• RCA audio interconnect input for use with most A/V receivers and preamplifiers.

Acoustically Inert and Rigidly Braced Sealed Cabinet Design

Handsomely styled to complement the finest home theater and Hi-Fi systems, yet compact enough to stash out of sight, the acoustically optimized 3000 Micro sealed-cabinet design blends with any room or setup. Extra-thick MDF side baffles and rigid internal bracing provide a resonance-free environment that remains motionless even at peak playback levels, solving a long-time issue of " dancing" micro subwoofers. It serves as a blank canvas for uncompromised subwoofer performance.

• Acoustic absorption eliminates all coloration from the cabinet, even when the deepest low frequencies are played at reference volume.
• Protective, non-resonant, perforated metal grilles shield drivers to prevent damage while ensuring longevity.
• Reinforced internal bracing for resonance free performance at highest drive levels.
• Custom iso-elastomer screw-in feet reduce noise artifacts and improve stability.
