Reference subwoofer performance is possible for more people than ever. SB-3000 R|Evolution delivers staggering output and deep bass extension with pinpoint control and accuracy from a relatively compact sealed cabinet. Features a high-excursion 13” SVS driver and 1,200 watts continuous MOSFET amplifier, smartphone app control, and more.

A subwoofer shouldn’t just be heard, it should be felt, lived, and remembered. The 3000 R|Evolution Series embodies that philosophy. Building on flagship SVS 17-Ultra R|Evolution Series technologies that raised the bar for performance, these models are the sweet spot of SVS subwoofers, delivering unrivalled output, extension, and transient response, with untraceable distortion.

3000 R|Evolution is the culmination of 20+ years of SVS acoustic breakthroughs—engineering that elevates music, home theatre, and gaming into emotionally charged, high-impact experiences. These subwoofers don’t just play bass; they unleash it with precision, musicality, and authority that captivates listeners and reshapes expectations.

PB-3000 R|Evolution combines the most sophisticated SVS subwoofer technology ever developed with trailblazing innovations to set a new standard for ported subwoofer performance in its class and beyond.

Iron Fist in a Velvet Glove - Breakthrough Driver Architecture.

The beating heart of PB-3000 R|Evolution is an all-new high-excursion 13” driver with ground-breaking voice coil design engineered for immense, effortless output with surgical accuracy.

  • Flat-Edge Split-Wind Voice Coil maximises magnetic force at high excursion while maintaining ultra-low mass for responsiveness and efficiency. The result is room-shaking output with unerring accuracy and a highly visceral experience.

  • Two-Piece Toroidal Ferrite Magnet Overhung Motor maintains precise linearity to drive the highest levels of excursion, SPL, and start/stop power for the deepest, most authoritative bass possible from a 13” driver.

  • Rigid 1100 Pure Aluminium Cone is lightweight and neutral for convincing, distortion-free output, even at extreme levels.

  • Long-Throw Extreme Excursion SBR Surround maintains ideal pistonic motion while enabling massive driver movement for clean, room-pressurising low end.

Power with Control. STA-1200D2 MOSFET Amplifier.

Conservatively rated at 1,200 watts Continuous and 4,000+ watts peak power, the STA-1200D2 amplifier maximises the 13” driver's full potential with effortless power and absolute control.

The pioneering design combines the efficiency of a Class D amplifier with the ability to move massive current through the fully discrete MOSFETs for outstanding real-world subwoofer performance at all drive levels.

  • High Current MOSFET Output with Class-D Efficiency allows the STA-1200D2 amplifier to move massive amounts of current through the fully discrete MOSFETs, enabling the 13” driver to fully maximise on its potential with output beyond reference levels with control and accuracy.

  • Performance Enhancing Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) maximises system performance and reliability under all operating conditions by monitoring amplifier and AC main output voltage/current as well as multiple temperature sensors.

  • Premium Grade 56bit Digital Audio Processing and premium DACs (Digital-to-Analog Converters) with more than 120 dB Signal-to-Noise Ratio provide greater headroom, lower noise, and flawless fidelity.

  • Unbalanced RCA 10kohm Input Impedance compatible with consumer and professional audio up to 4Vrms inputs)

  • Balanced XLR 18kohm Input Impedance compatible with consumer and professional audio up to 4Vrms / +14dBu inputs

  • Rear Panel OLED and Control Interface provide fast and direct control of the most important features. Includes a convenient “Display Flip” function.

The Brains Behind the Brawn. 295 MHz Analog Devices DSP.

Orchestrating the cutting-edge amplifier, motor, and driver ecosystem is the most sophisticated DSP ever deployed in a home audio subwoofer.

  • Accurately shapes in-room frequency response with absolute precision for faithful signal reproduction

  • Monitors every function of the amplifier to stabilise AC voltage delivery to the power supply to maintain consistent peak output

  • Multi-point thermal, voltage, and current monitoring systems ensure maximum output and efficiency

  • Advanced digital audio processing and DACs (Digital-to-Analog Converters) with 120 dB Signal-to-Noise Ratio provide greater headroom, lower noise, and pristine fidelity

Acoustically Inert, Rigidly Braced Ported Cabinet Design

Dual-ported cabinet delivers deep subterranean bass extension with room-energising output that fills even the largest home theatres.

  • Rigid MDF front baffle and extensive internal bracing support the massive drive unit and ensure an acoustically inert environment.

  • Two high-flow 3.5-inch rounded ports enable massive airflow for greater dynamic headroom.

  • Highly reinforced internal design and acoustic insulation eliminate all coloration or resonance from the cabinet, even when the deepest low frequencies are played at reference volume.

  • Protective non-resonant extra-thick ABS grille frame with fabric mesh cover shields the driver to prevent damage while ensuring longevity.

  • Custom elastomer feet reduce noise artifacts within a room.
