First Impression - SVS SB-1000 Pro

[Strong Eagle]

My new sub arrived Saturday afternoon. WHAT A BEAST! Setup the sub per SVS get started instructions. Reran my Sony STR AN1000 calibration setup again and tweaked a little bit. Then tried the first track of Darkside of the Moon.

Damn! It rattles the dishes in the kitchen cabinets. I've got a bit more calibrating to do. As you can see, this sub just barely fits into my built in cabinetry (with a half inch cut to a cabinet lip). I've noticed a bit of "boominess" around 50 Hz but overall seems to work very well. I had my old DefTech sub there and had to put foam around it to attenuate resonance.

FWIW - this room is 16 feet wide, 12 feet to the sitting/listening area from the front, about 17 feet to the kitchen area, then the kitchen is about 13 feet... 30 feet total... a room with a length about twice the width.

My first SVS was also an eye opener, even having had other decent subs. Congrats!

Sounds like you might like this too. If you don't have Atmos, it will still sound great. Slightly different than the SACD version.

My first sub used to rattle the dishes in the old guy's house across the street... It also opened a great many seams in my drywall (fortunately I was renting at the time)...

Enjoy!

Free the sub from the cubby hole!

Agreed, booming comes from that placement.

Couldn't help. That room has issues, too.
