Short answer: the SVS PB-1000 PRO, if you are buying new. The Power Sound Audio (PSA) XV15 ranks higher than it (#10 vs #51 of 212 subwoofers, 4.1/5 vs 3.8/5) but is discontinued, so only consider it used; the SVS PB-1000 PRO is still sold new at $849.
The case for the Power Sound Audio (PSA) XV15: A down firing 15 inch ported subwoofer with deep, clean, detailed bass that plays loud, now discontinued but worth buying used. The tradeoff: It weighs 75 lbs (34.0 kg) in a 584 x 432 x 559 mm cabinet, so it needs a lot of space.
Why pick the SVS PB-1000 PRO: A ported 12 inch subwoofer with deep, room shaking bass for the money and app control. The tradeoff: An SPL-style presentation with a heavier tone that is a little more in your face and can crush fine detail compared with Rythmik’s servo subs.
Buy the SVS PB-1000 PRO if you want one new; the Power Sound Audio (PSA) XV15 is discontinued, so only look for it used.
