I like your channel you’re calm and down to earth and you have knowledge ✌️
Thanks for the kind words.
Exactly what I was thinking. A great presentation.
knowledge seriously! he needs to go read at the svs site a bit before spreading fud.the rca outputs on this are not i repete NOT.for daisy chaining more subs.the pb and sb 1000 rca outputs are filtered to above 80hz.
Another excellent review. Helped me to make up my mind on what sub to get. Also love how you alway bring out the positive qualities in a piece of equipment you may not particularly choose. You've gained another fan.
That's awesome! Thanks for watching!
Loved the video thinking between the two myself really nice to see a down to earth unbiased review big thumbs up 👍
Wow One of the most pleasant introductions to a video I have ever watched. Great guy !
Wow, thanks!

Great video ! I have 10 by 14 ft room, planning to get Marantz SR5014 and 5 B&W CCM 663 ceiling speakers HT setup more for movies and still looking for a Sub woofer. Was leaning towards SVS PB1000 (not SB 1000 as that was too subtle for my taste when I heard in Bestbuy) but this looks bit big for my room so is there a smaller speaker in a similar price range with balanced controlled bass with the bass feel ? or am I better off just choosing PB1000 as there may not be another woofer closer to this with smaller foot print
I'm so glad I found this channel!
I'm happy you found it too! Welcome aboard 😂😂

I've just bought the PB 1000 on clearance. Great deal and sound good for films. In a 2000cuft room I'd say you really need two to feel the bass.
In a 1200cuft room, do you think i will have enough with 1 PB-1000 to feel the bass? I'm currently using 2 Klipsch RP-7000F's without a subwoofer....
I bought a $500 Klipsch subwoofer back in 2006. I had never heard of the brand but the salesperson raved about them so I jumped. Well, about 3 years later, it completely died. I took it in for repair and they said the amp was dead and it wouldn't be worth fixing. Therefore, I'll never buy another Klipsch product. 3 years is ridiculous and I didn't even use it that much. I actually just bought this SVS sub. I'd like to add one more feature not mentioned. Customer service. I have called SVS twice already. I've never experienced such incredible service. The woman was incredibly knowledgeable. In fact, I was telling her about problems I've had with my new Denon receiver. She pulled up the manual for it and was helping me with my receiver. She knew more about it than the Denon reps. knew! I don't know about you, but I am willing to pay more knowing I'm getting a 5 YEAR guarantee and access to service like that. By the way, Denon has been a disaster to deal with. No more Denon for me. Horrible service.
the klipsch looks similar to the speedwoofer 10s. but i think the speedwoofer is the better option at $399 and more powerful vs the klipsch 10. great comparison though! 👌👍
nice review thanks.
Those SVS sub's are hard to beat when looking at manufactured subs... Very good information and review man
Thanks!
Hey HTH, Just subscribed to your channel. Great job on the reviews. Which 10" ported sub would you recommend for a dual set-up? RSL, Monoprice, SVS or something else? I appreciate your input. Keep up the good work! Cheers!!
Thanks for subscribing! Best all around I'd say SVS PB1000 (czcams.com/video/QPZzdoTfrg8/video.html). Followed by the RSL Speedwoofer 10s if you like a fun sub that plays mid bass well. But if you like really deep bass go for the Monoprice Monolith (czcams.com/video/OSR5zcaFSnQ/video.html). You obviously watch the comparison to the Klipsch which I also like but yea all around, go SVS PB1000.

Nice to hear the difference with something other than "BOOM" music.
😁😁
I get your point but if your music doesn't have information below 60 hz, there is no point. "Boom" music has information to utilize a subwoofer. I get organs "can play down to 20 hz" but a good ole' sine wave @ 150db is pretty fun.
One company releases frequency response graphs next to their products. The other doesn't.

Hello from Switzerland I'm enjoying your videos as I'm about to upgrade my system to Klipsch Dolby Atmos Reference
Hello Switzerland! Thank you for the kind words! Yes I like my Klipsch sound. I have a couple videos comparing them to others speakers with audio samples to give you an idea of how they compare.

I have the SVS PB-1000 and it's amazing.. I bought if from the SVS outlet and I paid $399 for it instead of the $499.. it's one of the most impressive subwoofers I've heard for under $500 and I highly recommend it
Thanks for sharing
Thanks!
Awsome Awsome review 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you!
Have you tried a Klipsch SPL-120? Just curious if it is better than the R-112SW and how it might stand up to the PB-1000. I do know Klipsch put a better amplifier in the SPL line.
I have 2 R-112SW's and they are awesome for the money($399 each) vs $1000 for a pair of the SVS PB-1000 and 12 vs 10 inch subs.
@@jimidrammer4187 heard they have a ton of amp problems tho..how long have u had them
@@mikedavis9554 2 years and still doing fine.
Great channel mate, really really liking your content.
Just a heads up, you made a mistake at 9:35 I think you meant to say SVS but instead said Klipsch which made that bit slightly confusing but think it makes sense !
Yes that was a mistake, thanks 😊
Can u do a review of the xtz 12.17 edge
sub also.
Hi, I am setting up a marantz sr6015 with 5.1.2, where I am using thx504L for centre ch and thx 502L for front leg and right. Rp 402s for surround and cs18 C for the atmos ceiling speakers.. Here I am not too sure abt the centre speaker, if it is appropriate for this amp or I should go with thx 502-L? Because in the description it is recommended for 150w amp?
I want that Marantz as well.
Hey really nice comparison! The SPL-100 is my first sub, so it’s nice to know it can hang with the PB-1000. I just picked up the SVS wireless sub kit; how has your experience been with it so far?
The wireless kit has worked flawlessly for me. Thanks for commenting
Your voice is so calming...
SVS PB-1000 sounds better and black fits with everything for me.Thanks for this video.
Wow thank you for this video I have the klipsch subwoofers as well in both rooms and I was just wondering just how good they compare to other subwoofers and it’s like no one is doing it until I found your video. The svs A lot cleaner in stapled in this comparison and it sounds like the svs volume could be turned up just a little bit more just to see if it continue to stay smooth and sturdy in its sound output
Subbed , great video. If you were gonna buy a set 7.2.4 which the subs are included, would you pick SVS or Klipsh?
Thanks 🙏🏾! I’d pick SVS because I like deep bass and their subs typically play deep.
Does the Klipsch not travel through walls at all? I'm still in my parents house and I'm upstairs, she has problems with low end, I don't really get it, but she acts like she's in pain when she hears a car with a sub drives by. I'm guessing it'll be heard to some degree though, so I'll probably go with the SVS and just use it when she's away.
Nice video. I don't have the lfe on my av receiver so how I go about sorting that out?
buster colin You mean the sub? If so, just connect cable to one input. I have mines to red.
Quick question I'm trying to make adjustments to my sub I've had my neighbors complain recently being to loud. What would you suggest I don't want to lose much volume after putting so much money into this atmos setup. I live in a mobile home park. Is there a way to keep most of the sound in the home I don't want the property manager called again.
Thank you
Look into bass traps and other sound absorbing material.
How can I connect 2 subwoofer with bookshelf speakers
Would love a comparison between the Klipsch SPL 120 and the SVS PB 1000
Why?not the same size drivers
@@shaundavidssd but the same price.
A succeeding series "1000 Pro" has been released by SVS, now with adjustable DSP by smartphone app. I wouldn't buy Klipsch SPLs any longer. It's not worth the ~150 bucks saved. You get both inferior technology and cabinet design vulnerable to chuffle and resonances when choosing Klipsch.
@pickyaudiophile9898 now for 100$ more than the svs sb-1000 pro, you get the SPL-150.
Sure you cannot configure it from a smartphone, but for the few times you need to change the settings, it's more of a gadget
Good video! Currently debating which one I will go with. I have 2 klipsch r-10sw right now and want deep lower bass. Is it bad to mix subwoofer sizes ? 12 and a 10? Replacing both subs will be too expensive. Svs 10 ported sub get low enough or do u recommend the svs 2000 ported ??
It's ok to mix 10 and 12" subs you'll just have to play around with placement in your room and subwoofer level to find the balance that works for you. As far as the PB1000 vs. PB2000......... The PB2000 does play a little lower so if you're mixing that with your 10" Klipsch, it's probably better to choose the PB2000, it'll be a more noticeable depth in bass.
@@HomeTheaterHobbyist thanks I really appreciate the help.
I believe the SVC's have a better reaction time for movie watching, but the Klipsch are better with music. But really it all boils down to preference. Nice video. Thank you for taking the time.
Thanks 🙏🏾
SVS is the king of high quality sounding subwoofers. No comparison to the time and effort put into them.
Well, according to what I've read (listening experiences) the Rythmik subwoofers seem to be very interesting and are supposed to sound even better than SVS and most other subs!
Unfortunately the shipping to my country is very expensive and also it's risky due to potential failure. But man, do I want to hear those things badly.
Yup. In this case and any other model they make it isn’t fair for Klipsch. I use and love their RP bookshelf’s and towers though.
Cool video man
Thanks!
Great review. I think SVS pb1000 will be better for me and that much power. Nicely explained.
Thanks, the pb1000 is a great choice.
Yes! I'll go for SVS!
I've auditioned the Klipsch R112sw, RSL speed woofer 10s, and the PB1000, the Klipsch could not keep up with the PB1000 or 10s, musical the 10s sounded best, the PB1000 dug deeper and was stellar on movies, musical it digs deeper than both the Klipsch and 10s, so I settled on 2 PB1000's and have been pleased for almost 3 years, no regrets!!
Nice! They are all great subs with their own merits. I’m glad you were able to try them all out and decide which you preferred most. That’s definitely the best way to make this decision. When it’s time to upgrade again will you stick SVS or try something new?
I have a r112sw and am debating if I should return it and go with the RSL Speedwoofer mk2. The speedwoofer beats the r112 across the board on specs but my hold up is that it’s a smaller 10” driver.
How would you compare the output of the original Speedwoofer to the r112sw?
Good thorough job there! I noticed a lot of subsonic cone travel with the Klipsch than the SVS, but yet the SVS is supposed to hit down to 19Hz. Could the SVS have a built in low cut filter? One thing that wastes amp power is playing frequencies the speaker can't reproduce.
Not sure on the low cut filter for the SVS but thanks for commenting!
What probably happened was they tuned the svs port and box much lower than the klipsch so it could achieve higher output without as much excursion
i am thinking off getting the SVS SB3000 or the PB3000 to connect to my Sennheiser Ambeo sound bar....what are your thoughts thx from Canada
The 3000 series is something I want to check out! 😁 if you’re into movies pb if you’re into music or space constrained go for the sb.
Also you can demo both and see which one you prefer since svs has such a great return policy. 😁😁 Let me know your thoughts once you decide.
Does the Svs shake the room? I’m looking for a sub that can really give boost and shake a room or floor
It can if the room is small and the volume is up really high. You probably need to look at the PB-3000 series if you want a sub that will rumble the floor without having to really crank the volume in a medium or large room.
Sold, professional presentation.
Thanks!
Really like your videos. You did a previous video on the Hsu Research VTF-2 MK5, which if I remember correctly was a long term review. And you also bought the SVS PB-1000. Which one do you think is the better buy since they are both about $500 and wattage as well as frequency response is similar. Many thanks
The HSU is a better buy more output and the ability to tweak the sound to your preference.
Many thanks 👍👍
I am a klipsch fan but even I know that SVS is gonna win this lol
SVS is always king when it comes to subwoofers
I'm trying to decide on a second sub for the theater I built since the DefTech ProSub1000 is very disappointing. I can get the Klipsch SPL-120 for about 460 from Direct Buy. Do you think I'll be happy with it or is there a comparable SVS that is better? Yeah, I know I'll be paying more for SVS.
If you’re still in the market..... I haven’t tried it but take a look at the PB-2000 Pro.
Amazing videos. Can you please help me with the comparison between Monolith 10 THX and SVS PB1000? Since you have both. I’m reading the individual reviews which is making difficult to make a decision.
Unfortunately I no longer have the Monolith 10 but here are my thoughts: The Monolith will sound deeper in the room but it's not as great with music while the PB1000 is pretty well balanced between music and movies. Hope this helps!
@@HomeTheaterHobbyist If I'm planning to go dual, is it a good idea to have one monolith and other SVS? Thanks a lot in advance.
How do i connect my subwoofer if my tv only has USB in, HDMI in, and Optical digital out plug ins?
Unfortunately tvs don’t come with a subwoofer output. You’ll need something with a subwoofer out connection like an av receiver or soundbar.
I have a question;
What would you recommend using for cables? An normal RCA to RCA? Or a Y-split RCA?
Rca to Rca if possible. Y-split shouldn’t reduce the signal noticeably but there is av chance that it could reduce it.
Hey man great video! I was wondering if you know if there is much difference between Klipsch SPL150 vs SVS PB2000 Pro?
Unfortunately I haven’t tried either so I can’t say. 😞
@@HomeTheaterHobbyist Ah fair enough! Thanks anyway 🤗
I purchased dual RSL speedwoofers 10" big time punch!
Nice!!!!!! Glad you like them!
Are you going to compare the new RP series Klipsch???
Can you do a vs with the Polk Audio HTS 12 ?
ill spoil it for you, almost everything anyone else makes is going to be better than the polk in the same price range, and even cheaper stuff might still be better... Polk was nice because you could go to your local bestbuy and get it... now that best buy basically doesnt stock a fucking thing in home theater int heir stores anymore the brand is absolutely useless...
Would love to see a comparison of the SVS PB 1000 vs Klipsch 12hg Synergy series 12-inch 300-watt sub.
Still the SVS would win. Now has phone app so you can tune it in and turn it down. 325RMS up to 820+ watts.
@@ENGBriseB 325 up to 820+ how would that even work? Sounds impossible, I'd have to see it too believe it..

sir, I need a new subwoofer but I don't know what to choose. I just bought KEF Q150 WITH 250 center channel. My reciever is Sony str dn1060. I need sub for this system for both music and theatre. Not too technical in these matters.. Too many choices. my room is open not closed and of medium size but tall ceiling. Q150 are fine at filling space. I have a Martin Logan dynamo 700 sub but it blew out. .like svs,klipsch,system,, and speed pro 10. Help please asap
Hi 🙋🏾♂️, not sure of your budget but I recommend you try the SVS pb2000 pro. Or another SVS sub that is within your budget. They make great subs and have a 45 day no hassle return policy if you don’t like it. With this policy they pay shipping both ways so that make the trial very easy. I hope this helps.
I did a DIY 2x 15in subs set at 1050rms I like to know how to keep the rattles around the walls to minimum
Hey man please little help svs pb2000 pro or klipsch r115 is better sub or spl150 vs pb2000 pro i want your honest advice and opinion 🙏🙏🙏 waiting unswer
Hi! Unfortunately I haven’t tried the svs pro series or the r115. 😔 But based on my previous experience I think the pro series is probably best all around if compared to the two Klipsch. Sorry I can’t be more helpful.
@Home Theater Hobbyist Great job bro & what do you think is better VTF-1 MK3 Subwoofer or Klipsch SPL-100 ??
Do you stall have your HSU Research VTF-2 MK5?
Unfortunately I haven’t tried the VTF-1 MK3 but I suspect it would be better than the Klipsch but the Klipsch really is good. Yes I still have my VTF-2 and still love it! I’m hoping to try some other 12” subs this year and I’ll compare them to the VTF-2.
@@HomeTheaterHobbyistHobbyist ok cool thanks Iv been looking for a sub & seen that the VTF-2 are better thin the JL Audio that I wanted to a long time! lol, the Last thing is it better to get 2 10in subs or 1 15in sub?
Where do you get the "Center Stand" from?
Center stand? Do you mean my TV stand? It's a Z-line I found at Wal-Mart
Thank you 🙏🏼 great help on making my choice. SVS for me 😁🔊 How does it compare with the new Polk 12’ HTS
That’s a great question, I haven’t tried the Polk so I can’t say.
your videos are amazing is very easy to learn , understand with you.. I bought Subwoofer SVS PB 1000 .and I had Subwoofer klipsch R-110SW
now I have both connected 7.2.2 klipsch is small ..and don't know if help or disconnect,,what do you think? great video!!!
I would keep and experiment with sub placement (if you have the space to do so) and volume. You might find a good balance (for instance, Klipsch handling mid bass while SVS handling depth) using two subs versus one. Let me know what you decide.
we've got the pb-1000 on display at my best buy store. one of, if not the, best subwoofer for the price. Like the you said in the beginning, one is a speaker company's subwoofer, and the other is a subwoofer company's subwoofer. granted, we also have the SVS prime pinnacle floor standing tower speakers on display matched with the pb-1000. The matching aesthetics look great, however a subwoofer company's speakers arent the best for the money. for the same price as the SVS prime pinnacles (or a little more) I would choose the B&W 603 Floor standing towers.
Anyway, THE PB-1000 IS FANTASTIC FOR A $499 SUB
It’s nice you can hear / see them at your local Best Buy that is better than what most of us can do.
Bro I am considering buying either dual pb1000 or dual sb2000, could you please do a review comparison of the two. I am leaning towards the sealed sb2000
If I can get an sb 2000 in that would be a great comparison.
To sb 2000s will destroy the PB 1000s. How large is your room
Get dual sb 3000s, that's like 2k though lol !

If I can get someone to send me a pair I'll review them!
@@HomeTheaterHobbyist i wish i could ,but i hope you do get chance somehow
yeah.. i really concern it will disturb my neighbours. If I lower down the subwoofer volume, do I still here the lowest frequency sound that can produce by both subwoofer?
Yes, you'll still get the frequencies each sub can produce just at a lower volume.
@@HomeTheaterHobbyist Thank you for replying.
Is the amplitude the same? Because Klipsch here is distorting the camera way more than SVS does. Seems like SVS is at least 3dB quieter and softer than Klipsch. I wish you could also test some 20-25Hz tones. I'm looking for a good sub which can produce a clean sinewave at 20Hz with reasonable 100dB +
Yes the levels are the same. I unplugged one sub then reconnected the next with all the same settings.
I have disc with 20 Hz tones and mics to record but I don't add that tone to the videos because most people don't have speakers that can replay that tone at normal listening levels. I don't want to blast people's ears with the next tone or my narration 😁.
@@HomeTheaterHobbyist Yea well... I'm sure peoples systems won't play 31.5Hz either :P Unless using headphones or quality subs of course
Between these 2 and the RSL Speedwoofer 10s which would you recommend? It would mostly be for movies/tv/gaming (not music). Looking for something to replace my dead Polk DSW Pro 400 (8") and I'd prefer to stick within the $300-$500 range. I'd like something to provide solid base but something I could turn down enough not to cause problems with our common wall neighbors. Thanks! Really enjoy your reviews.
Thanks, please share the videos 😀! I'd choose the PB-1000 it'll play deeper for movies.
@@HomeTheaterHobbyist Thanks for your input and for your time to write a reply. I'll certainly share your channel/videos with anyone needing advice on home theater/tech.
Home Theater Hobbyist I forgot to ask about another contender in this range...the Monolith 10 from Monoprice. Between the SVS PB-1000, which would you give the nod to?
If you’re looking for depth and mainly movies I’d go Monolith 10 but if you want a little more balanced bass go PB1000
@@HomeTheaterHobbyist Thanks again!
Size is a big factor for me, I’ve narrowed down to r-100SW (Klipsch, 218$), SB 100 (399$, outlet price), and PB 1000 (399$ outlet price). Looking to ups grade my old 8” Onkyo for mostly TV and movies with occ music, the front runners are SB and Klipsch because box is 13” wide, is the PB worth the extra 2” in width??
If you want slightly deeper bass then yes.
I bought the Klipsch and returned it. The design did not work for me. The square shaped box and corners are really really sharp and I have a 1 year old boy who walks around the living room. way too dangerous specially for toddlers. No thanks. I got the pb2000. Super happy. Nice review.
PB2000 is a great sub! I have little ones to so I understand, enjoy!
Probably never have a money 💰 buying a both star war but still watching this video... SVS is a my dream subwoofer
Thanks for watching, hopefully you'll get one!
Nice review. Please could you advise me: I'm a novice who want to set up a budget home cenema. Can I link an active subwoofer and also link an active bookshelf speakers to an AV Receiver that already has an amplifier? Wouldn't the AV Receiver blow up the active sub and speakers? Thank you in advance
The only way to use active speakers with an AVR receiver is to use the "Pre-out" connections of the receiver. If you can't use those, do not connect an active (powered) speaker to an AVR.
I could not be more grateful. You've saved this novice cash!! I could have damaged my active subwoofer. God bless you
Hey bro, it's me again. Thanks for your advise the other day. Please help me: You've warned me to only use active subwoofer or active speakers with an AV receiver's "pre out" connection area. Ok I agree but what happens if the "pre out" connections aren't enough to accommodate other active speakers that I would like to add to the AV receiver? For example I've got as active subwoofer and a pair of active surround sound speakers. I also plan to add another active subwoofer later.
Is there any "pre out" extension lead with many ports that I could use to accommodate my other active speakers? If you were in my position, how would you solve this problem? Any suggestions?
I'm confident you'd get back to me. Thanks for your kindness in advance.
Thank You.
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
On the SVS- The outputs are 80hz HIGHPASS, which removes the bass going back to an amp to drive small speakers. Which is kind of a cool feature. Ultimately, these line level outputs will not work to drive another sub, since it filters any bass below 80hz.
Don't forget the Svs (optional) soundpaths. (Big rubber feet) They do a lot ! I've got two svs sb-2000's... I love them, my neighbours don't...
Good point!
Love the copper color. But need clarity for music.
I need some advice'! Is it better to buy the SvS pb 2000 or the klipisch spl 150'!?? I am looking for deep deeper bass'! Which is best"?
For depth, I'd go PB2000.
@@HomeTheaterHobbyist Thanks
the svs doesn't shake as hard as the klipsch . We notice a difference . Nice vid man !!
That's because the Klipsch has a softer surround resulting in sloppier bass while the SVS has tighter bass.
@@HomeTheatre101 the spider is doing the dampening, the surround not so much
trust me when it's real low frequency you would be surprised the svs is on a different level cheap subs amps are design to sound powerful than they really is buy rolls off real quick while subs like svs climbs where the klipsch gonna start to roll off at
I had a hard time deciding which one to get and didn't want to discriminate so I ended up buying both of them.
NICE!! 🤣🤣
