Features & Specs
True subsonic extension to 13Hz
Designed to energize a room with the lowest audible (and feelable) frequencies, the PB-5000 R|Evolution delivers the kind of deep bass that brings modern action movies, sci-fi effects, and pipe-organ notes to life.
15-inch high-excursion driver engineered for control
The reimagined 15" driver combines a glass fiber composite cone, advanced motor structure, and long-throw surround to produce massive output while staying composed and accurate.
Dual monoblock power for effortless dynamics
With a conservatively rated 2,000W RMS and 5,000+W peak, the amplifier platform is built to deliver real-world headroom—so bass hits harder, stays cleaner, and avoids sounding strained at high playback levels.
295MHz DSP precision
High-speed digital processing maintains linear response, reduces distortion, and keeps output consistent—helping the subwoofer sound both thunderous and refined depending on the material.
App-based control and personalization
The SVS Subwoofer Control App enables quick calibration from your seat, fine adjustments for phase/crossover/levels, and deeper tuning options—without constantly reaching behind the cabinet.
Connectivity for nearly any system
RCA and balanced XLR inputs/outputs, plus trigger and IR control options, make it easy to integrate into dedicated theaters, stereo rigs, and custom-installed systems—while the USB port supports firmware updates and can power SVS’s wireless adapter receiver.
