Hi

THe SVS 1000 Pro is superior to the SVS Micro 3000. Frankly these are not that much different in size. Please run away from REL. Not worth the price..

Happy Holidays

Peace.

thanks
So for you opinion svs 1000pro is better for music than micro 3000?

Yes. It is a better sub by any metrics.

Subwoofers aren't 'for music' vs 'not for music'.

They're for low bass.

What you said is absolutely true, but (and you know this, I'm sure, but I'm just stating it for the newer folks), if a subwoofer is going to be used for home theater duty, you may end up with different recommendations since HT duty can place additional requirements for infrasonics and output levels that may not be as important for music listening.

I use The REL Tzero for low level listening in a kitchen with a pair of LSX and it would not really keep up if play just a tiny bit loud .

I bought the rel only for its footprint in that particular placement, so would not recommend in general.

Have you seen my “subwoofer comparison” spreadsheet? Link in signature.

" I would recommend the 3000 Micro subwoofer, as it would have more mid-bass output than the SB-1000 Pro in a given space."

I'd dismiss this advice in a heartbeat.
They should be above that kind of sales pitch... The micro 3000 is about $900 whereas the SB-1000 Pro is about $600....
Falling asleep, perhaps later to show you the Frequency responses...

Happy holidays

Peace.

Customer service that recommends the more expensive product?

Again, have you see my 'subwoofer comparison' spreadsheet? It literally has your answer.
