SVS PB-3000 VS PB-4000 | Who Wins?!? I compared the SVS pb-3000 and the pb-4000 in this video. The 3000 series is very powerful and the wife couldnt tell a difference between the two. That means that the 3000 which is cheaper performs just as good as the 4000. I could tell a difference that the 4000 had a tad more punch, but the transience on the 3000 was lightning fast compared to the 4000. Why not save some cash and go with the 3000.

Thanks for the head to head comparison. I bought the PB-3000 a few weeks ago and have been dialing it in with REW (along with help from SVS engineer Ed Mullen). As pointed out in other comments below, room placement is key and in my case I incorporated my 2 prior smaller and less powerful Definitive Technology subs to address the mid-bass nulls my room was experiencing. Very pleased with the results! Thanks again, and keep the great content coming!

The plan is to do a Y split to the R120's and the second preout to this Pb2000. Would be interesting to see what you think about that setup.

@PaperPlane7719 5 лет назад

How important is a sub to a moderate home theatre. I am running a 3.0 with two Klipsch towers the 820f's and the matching klipsch center. I don't have a ton of room as it is a living room setup but was thinking about adding rear channels or a Sub. I like watching action movies but how much more will I get from a 12" sub vs the woofers built into floor standing speakers? Thanks

@andyorozco6675 5 лет назад

I got your exact setup but with 115sw. It makes a difference if you like a super deep bass. The way I have mine amp is full towers with the center 110hz and the 115sw at 80 and below. I like the subwoofer to blend the kick/punch with the towers. I'm seating at 14 feet away. But if I wanted to I could increase by a lot the output of the bass on the sub and it would be drastic that there is no need for the towers to throw any bass at all. But the wife does not like excessive bass, so for me it does not make a difference.

With modern subs the ported for movies and sealed for music is becoming less and less relevant. Especially with SVS subs which are well designed I would go for the ported even for music to get that deeper overall bass.

So this is now a year old. Good vid, I'm building a house and planning to replace my current SVS sub (it's 13 years old) with one or two subs. Obviously SVS is under consideration, with the dual wound voice coil on the 3000 series, do they have something new/upcoming on the 4000 as well? 3000 seems like a compelling option but would appreciate the tighter response of the 4000, don't want to buy and have it immediately obsolete.

@cigarobsession 5 лет назад

You would have seen the difference if you actually measured with rew. At the limits, the 4000 simply has more, with less compression. For large rooms needing higher pressure levels, it can make all the difference. Below the threshold, sure save the cash by buying only what you need.

@@ThatHomeTheaterDude I agree. I have Dual PB-3000s and Dual PB-4000s and both sound good. The PB-3000s hit harder from about 20hz to 80 hz but when it comes to digging deep, the PB-4000s are quite a bit deeper and rumbles a lot harder. Plus, on Fury, during the scenes when the tanks battle, the PB-4000s leaves the PB-3000s behind. However, the PB-3000s are an excellent buy, especially for the performance and the weight difference.

It seems that you are very knowledgeable in the sound field and the review was very good. Nevertheless I was waiting to hear about that difference that you were able to notice versus the lady that could not find any difference between the two. Personally if the PB-4000, because of its shear power would go lower, I would definitely not mind paying the extra $400.00 and go for the PB 4000. The ultimate and most decisive quality in a subwoofer ( of course that is completely personal ) would its ability to produce a "deeply" satisfying deep notes. That is without breaking a bank or having to use a 5000 watt amp !!

You could get a used pro amp possibly. Or try a Behringer NX1000, I believe it does about 120 Watts each channel at 8 ohms, 200 Watts at 4ohms, and 300 at 2 ohms. Or bridge both changes and it can do 600 at 4 Ohms and probably 400 at 8Ohms. (There's a Dyno of the old model, but the new NX is just a reskin) I know it's above your $200 mark, but I can't search for used amps as that's area specific.

@@ThatHomeTheaterDude That's not correct, class D is used for speakers all the time and there is nothing wrong with modern Class D amps (that do it right) Yamaha HS5 is bi-amped class D for example. -I'll admit though, I assumed it was for subwoofer duty so that's why I recommended it.- There is a video on the Crown XLS pro amps that praises the sound quality of them. They are Class D (Different amps than the NX1000, but more expensive too) google "crown xls sound quality" and it's by Andrew Robinson .

@superdan43 5 лет назад

Your test was quick... but I believe that the filter is set to 20 Hz mode in the pb-4000 ( as you have all the port open ) which would definitely roll off earlier than the filter which is preset in the PB 3000 with two ports open ...the filters make a big difference which would make the PB 3000 sound deeper as it's standard filter does not roll off as early.. I think a better test would have been to set the pb-4000 to extended mode with two ports open also... that would have been a more even test along with the same placement of course.. I've measured myself using REW with my personal PC 4000s and the filters do make a difference definitely as far as HOW the subs roll off.... also the power output makes a difference too.. the PB 3000 May have been pushing the Driver Harder more quickly as it approaches it's compressed limits... which might explain why your couch was shaking.. maybe the standard filter setting in the PB 3000 sounds thicker than the standard setting filter in the pb-4000 which rolls off earlier... but with that said... I believe if you run at 20 Hz test tone with all ports open on both Subs separately... the pb-4000 should easily come out on top... Just my thoughts... ☺

I have now 2 Ultra towers, 2 bookshelf, 2 surround, center and 2 PB3000. Man the sound from these guys are awesome! I have the volume barely just over half way and I wonder how long I'll keep my windows intact lol. They are a little exspisve but so worth it. My room is 19.5x19.5 and no issues filling it with bass. Very clear and hit you in the chest bass. So, man I hope you enjoy them like do.

@edwinanstey5123 5 лет назад

So this is not the first place that I heard the PB-3000 keeps up for the most part to the PB-4000. Just from you hearing these subwoofers first hand could you give me a recommendation which sub would sound better in my room. The listening area room dimensions are 14 x 22 with 7 ft ceilings. The ceiling is a drop panel ceiling and the flooring is carpeted concrete. The actual room size is pretty wide open. 14 x 39 feet. There are no stores in my area that have SVS demos☹ so there's no way audibly I would be able to hear the difference for myself unless I buy each one and send one back. I would be pairing them with klipsch rp8000 towers and rp504 center. Yamaha RX-A1000 receiver. I'm an absolute lover of bass to keep that in mind. Plan on buying 2 of whichever I decide on.

@ThatHomeTheaterDude 5 лет назад

Thats no problem. SVS offers 45 day in home trial period. if you dont like one of them just send it back. they pay for shipping on the return. Im thinking with that big room size the 4000 may be the best bet

Move subwoofers for comparison by sliding them around on cardboard (assuming you won't scratch the floor). The amount of change due to floor coupleing is minimal and the same for both.
