Older model: the SVS SB-4000 (ranked higher, rated 4.2/5). See every SVS subwoofers generation.

Pros: A sealed 15 inch subwoofer with a powerful amplifier and app based room calibration for tight, deep bass. Sealed 15-inch high-excursion driver with a 2,000W RMS dual-monoblock amplifier and a 295MHz DSP. SVS rates it at 17-280Hz within 3dB. The SVS Subwoofer Control app adds DSP control and Auto EQ room calibration.

Cons: No independent measurements yet, so its output can’t be compared directly with ranked subwoofers; the rating is estimated from the measured SVS SB-4000 it replaces (120.1dB in the CEA-2010 bands it completed). A sealed box trades some deep-bass output for tighter response compared with a ported design of the same size.
