SVS SB12-Plus Subwoofer

We are top heavy with speaker reviews today, I hope you guys don't mind. I am planning a home theater build and I am doing quite a bit of speaker research these days.

SVS is well regarded as one of the best bang for your buck sub woofers on the market. The sub in question is the SVS SB12-Plus which is a 12 inch front firing sub with a price tag of just under $750.

Read on to see what Secrets Of HT and HIFI think:


I was able to get a maximum of 116 dB at 1 meter, using
our standard combination frequency test tone of 20 Hz, 31.5 Hz, and 50 Hz.
That is a lot of power!
For such a reasonably small subwoofer, there is plenty of
output at 20 Hz. THD+N is 12%, which is lower than I thought it would be. I
really could not hear any harmonics at less volume, which is where consumers
are more likely to have it set.
