Advanced Features: Parametric Equalizer (PEQ).

Important Note: Until you are ready to use the PEQ feature set, it should be disabled by setting all three controls to the full counter clock-wise position.

Background Information: Direct and reflected bass waves in the listening room will create ―standing waves‖ and associated peaks and nulls in the sub- woofer frequency response (FR). The PEQ allows you to reduce the severity of a peak in the subwoofer frequency response, thus obtaining a more accu- rate sound.

Control Explanation: The PEQ has three controls: Frequency, Bandwidth, and Level. An image of the PEQ control is provided below (your subwoofer controls may vary).

The Frequency control (labeled ―Freq.‖) affects the target the frequency where the PEQ cut will take effect, and has a control range of 20-80 Hz.

The Bandwidth control (labeled ―Q‖) affects the width of the PEQ cut. The ―HI‖ setting is the narrowest bandwidth, and the ―LO‖ setting is the widest bandwidth. In most cases, it is best to start with a Hi Q setting (narrow band- width).

Below is a frequency response graph of the SVS SB12-Plus as measured under quasi-anechoic conditions. This set of curves illustrates how the PEQ function works and what type of cut effect you can expect from various Q settings.

Green Line: Native frequency response of the subwoofer.

Purple Line: Frequency = 50 Hz, Q = HI, LEVEL = MAX.

Yellow Line: Frequency = 50 Hz, Q = LOW, LEVEL = MAX.

Additionally, it includes advanced signal processing capabilities, allowing users to fine-tune their audio settings easily.

Another notable characteristic of the PB13 is its sturdy cabinet construction. The enclosure is made from high-quality MDF, which minimizes vibrations and resonance that can distort sound quality. This is essential for maintaining clarity in bass frequencies, especially at higher volumes. The subwoofer is also designed with a front-firing port, providing versatile placement options while maintaining optimal airflow for maximum performance.

Furthermore, the PB13 offers a wide frequency response, reaching down to 18 Hz. This capability means that it can reproduce the deep bass notes often found in modern music genres and action-packed movie soundtracks. The result is a full-bodied audio experience that captivates the listener.

In terms of connectivity, the PB13 is equipped with both RCA inputs and speaker level inputs, allowing for versatile integration with various home theater systems and setups. The user-friendly controls on the rear panel facilitate easy adjustments to volume, phase, and crossover frequency, enabling users to tailor the subwoofer's output to their preferences.

Overall, the SV Sound PB13 subwoofer stands out in the crowded audio market with its advanced technology, robust construction, and impressive sound performance, making it a top choice for anyone looking to enhance their audio system. Whether for casual listening or critical listening sessions, the PB13 promises to deliver a bass experience that is both thrilling and satisfying.
