SV Subwoofers

Welcome!

At SVS, you can actually hear the tireless research and design efforts built in to our subwoofers and speak- ers. Years are spent developing any SVS product — with work typically spanning from our Ohio headquar- ters… to US west coast technology

centers… and over to the finest component suppliers in Asia and Europe as well. Nothing in our speaker offerings is an ―off the shelf‖ product. SVS is committed to making better sound systems with ele- gant looks, robust construction and world-class technology and materi- als. We believe you deserve nothing less.

This manual and the printed ―Quick Start‖ sheet will help you integrate speakers and subwoofer quickly and with professional results.

Armed with only a few basic tools, such a sound pressure level (SPL) meter, and the test tones built in to most audio/video receivers (AVR), you will achieve smooth, detailed and powerful reproduction of all your favorite music and movie audio. Expect to hear things you never heard before… and expect not to hear some of the artifacts you might have accepted in the past with inferior brands.

Have a question about your surround sound system? For more information about SVS products check out our US website, or the ex- clusive dealer for your region, contact us via phone or e-mail should you have questions regarding our products.

SVS was founded by audio enthusiasts — our commitment to service is the only thing that rivals the products we create. Our resellers around the world feel the same way.

Known for its deep and accurate bass response, the PB13 is an ideal choice for those seeking to elevate their audio experience, whether for music, movies, or gaming.

One of the standout features of the PB13 is its large, high-excursion 13.5-inch driver, designed to deliver rich low-end frequencies. This driver, combined with a high-powered 1000-watt RMS amplifier, allows the subwoofer to produce deep bass that is both loud and precise. This ensures that users are enveloped in a full soundstage, making for an immersive listening experience.

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.

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.
