SVS sub owners, Past and Present


I’d like to hear from (like the title states) SVS owners,past and present about what you DIDN’T like about the subs.  That’s correct,I’m looking for any issues you had with this brand of subs.  I am thinking about making a purchase,( I’m well aware of their generous return policy), but instead of hearing all the praise, let’s get to the nitty gritty.  With all due respect,I’m not looking for opinions, I’m only looking to hear from real live,hands on owners.  
 

     Thanks in advance,

I own SVS sb2000 pro. Added to my system since Klipsch Lascalas lack a bit of punch at bottom. And on that I'm satisfied. My problem was trying to get Bluetooth system to sync so I could use the app to tailor the details to fit my weird environment. Following instructions per manual I eventually gave up. My wife who is more savvy on these matters ripped the guidelines out of my hands and said this will be easy! Nope...epic fail! .BUT I set it manually and have been loathe to touch anything since BECAUSE after Velodyne, Sunfire, Boston Acoustics, this is the only sub which blends PEFECTLY with my Lascalas. I built suspension bungee platform for it to sit on and have been a SVS fan ever since. Stupid app    

I had to use the Russound adapter because my tube amps don’t have sub outs. The SB3000 beat my Rel s/3 and s/5 with many speaker combinations. All my mains have gone to the low 30’s or below. I prefer to use subs to fill under 30 only. One you get above 35hz is that really a sub?

I had an SB ultra13 for 5 years and I thought the world of it. Even had tuned for music. But when I put in a Servo Based (like had 20 years ago with my F15R velodyne) Rythmik G25HP and that was then end of that.  The theory of just move more air with bigger throw is not a true replacement for true bass.  

I love everything about my 4 SB16 ULTRA and 2 PC13 ULTRA Customer service is amazing
