SVS MICRO 3000 not to be confused with SB-3000
I received this sub this morning and was instantly impressed with finish and outward build quality. I would imagine the target audience for this sub folks with small spaces and bookshelf speakers which is not the case for me. What was important is can I hide this so the Mrs won't do the "WTF is that!" Okay so far only one small comment for her.
I've owned a few subs over the years and frankly I wasn't interested in another one until I saw this. It has an app. I don't have to crawl around on the ground to tweak it. BIG plus. It's really small another BIG plus.
The first turn on was a bit of a surprise. The defaults are not even close to what I use but again probably the small space & bookshelf setup it might be close. Instead of having to dive to the floor pull the sub out and turn down the volume I opened the app, turned down the volume, and instantly went to the low pass filter and cranked it down to 60Hz as a starting point. From there tweaking volume and placement was easy. I also made a custom preset for myself.
I won't go into long descriptions so the Readers Digest version is. This sub is loud, clean, very adjustable, and even at high volumes it doesn't dance on the floor. Touching in when its pumping out bass is a surprise. Vibration is minimal.
Size and cost were big factor for me. This sub fit the bill on both accounts.
Cheers,
Peter
