Short answer: the SVS SB-3000, on output and accuracy. Its 13-inch sealed cabinet and 800W RMS (2500W peak) amplifier deliver 118.7dB average with exceptional accuracy, against the SB-2000 Pro’s 12-inch, 550W RMS (1500W peak) Sledge design. The tradeoff is that the SB-3000 is compact at 25 kg (55.1 lbs), which the source says limits bass extension, and it lists at $1,199 against $749 for the SB-2000 Pro.
Buy the SVS SB-3000. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $450 saving on the SVS SB-2000 Pro is not enough to make up the difference.
