SVS

The challenges of designing a subwoofer capable of chest-pounding output at the lowest frequencies, while maintaining effective thermal and energy management in a micro-sized enclosure, has always been the holy grail of subwoofer brands. Previous designs were flawed with weak output, distortion, and uncontrolled movement of the cabinet itself. But all that has just changed.

At SVS what we believe is that approximately two-thirds to three-quarters of humanity loves great sound and, whether they may know it or not, seeks it out in their life. But they haven’t really been shown the “math” of how they can have great sound in their living space. So, to me, that’s the most overlooked thing. And, you know, one company alone can’t change the tide of that, but I think we all need to embrace the fact that great sound is something that’s of great value to almost everyone. Yes, some people don’t care. They may be perfectly happy ironing while listening to talk radio, but they’re not the ones that I’m talking about here. The other three quarters go (or did go) to movies, went to concerts, went to other events that included immersive sound. Those people just need to be shown that they can have great sound in their living space that compares with or is even better than the sound that they’re experiencing out in the world. An SVS subwoofer is a perfect match for any brand/model speaker. We create wonderful uncompromised, aspirational, subwoofer experiences in the price ranges where people don’t normally get that.

Product Description

3000 Micro is like a magic trick— small enough to fit anywhere and capable of delivering breathtaking bass from a shockingly compact 10-inch enclosure. For the first-time ever, a micro subwoofer that does not compromise on performance.

The Technology

SVS engineers had to bend the laws of physics designing a micro-sized subwoofer capable of massive, pristine output in HiFi and home theater systems. Reference amplifier technology from the flagship SVS 16-Ultra subwoofers was applied in an 800 watt RMS, 2,500+ watt Peak Power Sledge STA-800D2 amplifier with discrete MOSFET output for effortless, on-demand current with unerring control.

Harnessing the colossal power are fully active dual opposing 8-inch SVS drivers connected in parallel to move in perfect unison for massive slam and output with crisp, musical transients. The usable surface area of two fully active 8-inch woofers firing in opposite directions unleashes performance on par with much larger subwoofers and the tight, punchy output obliterates multi-driver passive radiator subwoofer designs known for bloated, one-note bass.

3000 Micro also has brains to match its brawn. A 50 MHz Analog Devices DSP enables sophisticated control and custom frequency response curves for optimized real-world output and acoustically tuned room gain. It also enables advanced tuning and control via the SVS subwoofer DSP smartphone app.

Fully Active Dual Opposing 8-inch Drivers
8-inch dual SVS subwoofer drivers in the 3000 Micro subwoofers are completely new designs and built for serious output as well as finesse and accuracy. The proprietary SVS design features a dual ferrite magnet motor assembly with long-throw parabolic surround for extreme excursion with room-pressurizing SPLs. A lightweight and rigid aluminum vented cone with composite fiber dustcap moves immense amounts of air to create tactile sonic energy without losing control. The result is precise and accurate response, even at the most intense listening levels.
Sledge STA-800D2 Subwoofer Amplifier
Conservatively rated at 800 watts RMS, 2500+ watts peak power, the 300 Micro Sledge STA-800D2 Amplifier with fully discrete MOSFET output generates massive on-demand current to fully maximize on the potential of the high-excursion 8-inch drivers. The high efficiency Class-D topology with 25 Amp 600 Volt MOSFET’s deliver effortless on-demand power while wielding pinpoint control. The result is astonishing output levels with pristine clarity.
50 MHz Analog Devices Audio DSP
The most advanced processor ever used in a consumer subwoofer, 50 MHz High Resolution Analog Devices Audio DSP with precision 56-bit filtering, allows the 3000 Micro to blend with any speakers and maintain pristine sound quality through advanced in-room tuning, optimized frequency response curves, powerful DSP controls and more.
Rear Panel Intelligent Control Interface (ICI)
Groundbreaking SVS Subwoofer Control Smartphone App is the easiest way ever to control your subwoofer’s volume and manage custom presets for one-touch tuning for movies, music, and more. Connected via Bluetooth, the app works with Apple iOS, Android, and Amazon devices to unleash the full force of the 3000 Micro subwoofer by controlling all DSP functions, including: volume, 3 band parametric EQ, low pass filter, phase, polarity, room gain, and system settings.
