Discontinued and Replaced by the 3000 Micro R|Evolution SVS 3000 Micro Subwoofer The SVS 3000 Micro Subwoofer delivers reference-quality bass from a shockingly compact, décor-friendly cabinet—ideal for apartments, small-to-medium rooms, desktops, studios, and minimalist home theaters. Its fully active dual opposing 8-inch drivers move in perfect unison to produce tight, powerful, ultra-musical low frequencies while canceling cabinet vibration, so it stays planted even when the bass hits hard. Power comes from the Sledge STA-800D2 amplifier (800 watts RMS / 2500+ watts peak) with advanced 50 MHz DSP for clean output, smart limiting, and precision tuning that takes full advantage of room gain without boom or bloat. Dial everything in from the SVS Subwoofer DSP smartphone app via Bluetooth—volume, crossover, phase, polarity, room gain, and 3-band parametric EQ—then save custom presets for movies, music, and gaming. What It’s Good At: Delivering deep, accurate bass in tight spaces without the “boomy” sound common to small subs Staying vibration-free thanks to dual opposing active drivers (no “walking” across the floor) Seamless blending with speakers using precise crossover, phase, and polarity controls Quick, seat-side tuning with Bluetooth app control plus 3-band parametric EQ High-impact home theater slam and musical detail from a sealed, acoustically inert cabinet Clean, confident output at demanding volumes with DSP control and multi-band limiting SVS 3000 Micro Full Specifications: Driver configuration: Active Dual Opposing 8-inch (dual opposing 8-inch active drivers designed acoustically and electrically in parallel) Amplifier: Sledge STA-800D2 (rear-mounted internal amplifier with Intelligent Control Interface (ICI)) Amplifier power: 800 watts RMS continuous (2500+ watts peak dynamic power) Frequency response: 23 Hz to 240 Hz (±3 dB) Acoustic measurement notes: 2-meter ground plane away from reflective structures (quasi-anechoic); roll-off slope optimized to maximize available room gain Total harmonic distortion: ≤ 1.00% (THD) Dimensions (including grilles): 10.9” (278 mm) H × 11.7” (297 mm) W × 10.7” (271 mm) D Weight: 22.5 lb (10.2 kg) Packaged dimensions: 13.9” (353 mm) H × 15.4” (390 mm) W × 15.4” (390 mm) D Packaged weight: 26.7 lb (12.1 kg) Finish options: Piano Gloss Black; Piano Gloss White Cabinet: Sealed; structurally reinforced MDF; extra-thick MDF side baffles; rigid internal bracing; acoustic absorption for reduced coloration Feet: Screw-in rubber feet; custom iso-elastomer screw-in feet Grilles: Dual protective non-resonant perforated metal / steel mesh grilles Driver specs (detailed): Dual opposing 8-inch drivers designed electrically and mechanically in parallel for massive output and ultra-low vibration Overhung motor configuration; injection-molded NBR surround Total excursion (each driver): 24 mm Xmax; 37 mm Xmech 1100 aluminum single-piece cone; 4-layer copper voice coil 6061 aluminum shorting ring; 5025-H18 aluminum former/bobbin 5-inch composite poly-cotton spider; dual 24-strand plated copper leads Oversized Y30 ferrite magnet motor; low-carbon 1010 steel top plate and U-yoke FEA-optimized powder-coated frames for rigidity, thermal conductivity, and damping Amplifier / DSP / control specs (detailed): Class-D switching topology with 25-amp 600-volt MOSFETs 50 MHz Analog Devices Audio DSP with double-precision 56-bit filtering User-adjustable: low pass filter, phase, polarity, room gain, and three parametric EQs Sophisticated multi-band limiters for controlled high-output performance Bluetooth app control for iOS, Android, and Amazon devices with user presets Stereo RCA input and output; ultra-wide input voltage for consumer/pro applications Rear panel ICI with blue-LED light bar display and push-button controls Auto/On modes (Auto standby after ~10 minutes with no signal) 3–12V AC/DC trigger input (TS 1/8” mono cable) Input impedance: 16 kΩ (unbalanced RCA) USB Type-A for firmware updates and powering USB devices (e.g., SVS SoundPath Wireless Audio Adapter, sold separately) 0.5-watt low-standby-power consumption; RoHS-compliant, lead-free construction; worldwide safety certifications SVS App specs: Bluetooth-controlled DSP app works with iOS, Android, and Amazon operating systems Adjusts crossover frequencies, parametric EQ, polarity, room gain, and bass-management functions Three custom presets for quick switching Bidirectional feedback shown on both app and rear-panel interface Included accessories: Dual protective non-resonant steel mesh grilles Isolating elastomer feet Heavy-duty, high-current 6-foot power cord Quick Start Guide Warranty: 5-Year Unconditional Warranty SVS 3000 Micro Q&A: How small is the SVS 3000 Micro, and will it actually fit in tight spaces? Yes—its compact cabinet measures 10.9” H × 11.7” W × 10.7” D (including grilles), making it easy to place beside a media console, under a desk, or in smaller rooms where larger subs won’t work. Does a micro subwoofer sound “boomy” or loose like many small subs? The 3000 Micro is engineered to avoid that. A sealed enclosure, advanced DSP tuning, and dual opposing active drivers deliver tight, musical bass with strong impact and controlled decay. What makes the dual opposing drivers special? The two active 8-inch drivers fire in opposite directions and operate in unison, which cancels much of the mechanical energy that normally shakes a cabinet—helping the sub stay stable while improving accuracy. Can I control settings from my phone? Yes. The SVS Bluetooth app lets you control volume and key DSP functions like crossover, phase, polarity, room gain, and 3-band parametric EQ, plus you can save presets for different content. What kind of power does it have for movies and home theater? It’s powered by an 800W RMS (2500+W peak) Sledge amplifier with DSP and smart limiting, designed to deliver high-impact output with control and low distortion. How do I connect it to my receiver or preamp? It uses unbalanced RCA line-level inputs and outputs for typical AV receiver/preamp connections, and it also supports a 3–12V trigger input for convenient automatic on/off with compatible gear. Does it support a wireless audio adapter? It can. The rear USB Type-A port can power an SVS SoundPath Wireless Audio Adapter (sold separately), which helps eliminate a long cable run. What finishes are available? The 3000 Micro comes in Piano Gloss Black or Piano Gloss White to match modern living rooms and high-end systems.
