I have the PB - 2000 and i bought it especially because of the Peerless XXLS based Chassis. It evolved over the time, based on first versions from the 1990s. Its rated at 125rms, but is powered by a 500W RMS / 1100W peak Amp, which is a statement how durable it is. After 5 years of PB-2000 ownership, i would buy the sub again :).
@@jamiet74 Yes, it is. I don't really care about the material of the basket but I really wonder if the Pro version do sound as good as the older non pro 2000-series... I could only find info about the output, meaning the Pros are supposed to deliver a little more output in the higher frequencies... but I mostly care about how good it sounds...
@@jamiet74 The new PB2000Pro has about 3 db higher output than the older PB2000. I am not buying that the new driver in the PB2000 Pro is not as good as the Peerless driver. 3 db is HUGEW!! If you look at the Linear XMax of each driver, I believe I found the Peerless XMax to be something like 13.5 cm. Which is not geat at all, a 13.5 cm linear xmas is pretty shitty. My guess is the new driver in the PB2000Pro is at least a 20 cm linear XMax driver.
That a new style plate 300w amp it also used in polk 505 powder subs the older svs used a bash amplifier wich is still sold at parts express under bash. 3 and 500w versions😊👍✌️💯
great video! interesting to see a +6 dB bump on that amp. I wonder what frequency they center that at? seems like an odd choice for ported box - understandable on the sealed choices though.
Can you order both and return the one you don't like? Both SVS and REL offer 30-60 day in home trials. Did you see my REL HT 1205 MK1 look inside and review video? In my opinion the HT 1205 mk1 is the "poor man's" SVS SB-3000 in terms of output and sound quality. Both the SB2000 and HT 1205 MKII subwoofers are very good, but if it were me I would go with the 1205 MKII.
You got it! I just released a Polk Monitor XT12 Look Inside video and I'm working on a review video that I should have out later this month. At the $299 sale price, I was quite impressed with the sound, but the cabinet needs some work.
@@BoRerunn Oh! Your talking about my upgraded JBL 550P subwoofer with a CSS SDX10 driver! The CSS driver is actually designed for small enclosures and that's one of the reason it works so well in the original 550P cabinet. I touch on the design and the reason why I went with this subwoofer in my upgrade video series.
@@BoRerunn That's a good question! The CSS SDX12 driver is a monster! I'm not familiar with the JBL 120 or R-12S since I don't own either, and I haven't done the modeling work in WinISD. However, if any of those cabinets meet the volume requirements on CSS's website for the SDX12, then it should turn out ok. But, I would bet money that the ports on either of those cabinets would need to be reworked (length and diameter) because the SDX12 can move a ton of air.
@@generationbehindhifi That what I was thinking. I've seen other amps in their own enclosure. For example, some Parts-Express amps - like the one I bought - are like that.
The Yamaha YST-SW315 10 inch subwoofer inside have a big transformer i understand the performance half volume also my room is shaking because of i never want to upgrade any other brands such as Klipsch and svs how to handle small transformer while watching movies Waves sounds...
Hmmm... that's a bold claim! I have built quite a few subwoofers on my own and have used high quality parts and this PB-2000 sounded phenomenal and hit especially well on movies. Since a subwoofer is designed to reproduce low octave frequencies I really don't see the benefit with running a class A/B amplifier and doubt many would hear the difference between the two with all other things being equal.
I bought two PB-2000's. Used them infrequently, and didn't turn them up very high since they shared the duty. The driver failed on one three years into ownership. I'll never buy a product from them again.
@@dans8935Because he's lying. Everyone who buys SVS and a lot who don't buy them know how good their customer service is and that they'd replace that driver in a heartbeat.

In the late PB12-nsd it's the same drier.
@@JoJanDiezel Similar, but not exactly the same. The driver in the newer PB2000 PRO looks to be a big step back, at least build quality wise

Do you know what driver they used for the pb1000 10"? I feel like it might have been the Tymphany xls but I'm not sure.
After over 40yrs of doing audio work I wouldn't advise using a power tool without the opposite hand guarding against a "slip off"....trust me
That does make sense mate, Good on ya
Accidents can happen with a power tool or a manual tool. The key is focus and being careful.
Almost 35 years in the hobby, punched a hole in a surround early on with a Phillips bit, I will not make that mistake again.
That looks like a Peerless XLS driver. I have the same and it's quality 👌🏾
Cool! Thanks for letting me know!
Bonjour très très bien le démontage pour voir la qualité du produits ,thank you
Wonder how hard it would be to make your own svs subwoofer
would be amazing to know what bit you used to get the back off.......................
You mean the plate amplifier? Pretty sure it was either an allen bit (most are 3mm) or phillips head screws.
I have an HSU VTF Mk-5. Can you do a look inside video on one? Thanks
great video! interesting to see a +6 dB bump on that amp. I wonder what frequency they center that at? seems like an odd choice for ported box - understandable on the sealed choices though.
I have a REL HT 1205 that I'm doing a look inside video on next.
Are there any port noises at loud volume?
Nope! FYI: I have a look inside video coming out on the SB 3000 very soon.
@@generationbehindhifi Thank you 🙃
Love this sub, nice video.
Hello what do you think about the sb2000 without the pro?:) Now think to buy it and choosing between sb2000 and rel ht1205mkII bit rel is 250$ more:(?

@@generationbehindhifi Great call 5 minutes adter you wrote this I bought the rel 1205 mkII.
His real price is a maximum of 500 dollars + the profit of the enterprise + the store = 800 dollars is an incredible maximum
do Polk Audio nex please 😉🙂

Please inside view in svs pb 2000 pro sir......
I already have a Look Inside video on the PB-2000. Check my look inside playlist.
What material is on the wood of the box.

How can a big speaker make so much Bass in not so big enclosure
IMO this enclosure is huge for a 12" driver and that's one of the reasons I couldn't keep it. :) It stuck out like a sore thumb in our living room.
@@generationbehindhifi I was thinking of your other video that you put a massive CCX driver in a small JBL 10" enclosure lol

Nice, do you make these subwoofer inside videos regularly?
I do when I can. I have an SB-3000 video I will be working on next. I haven't decided if I will do a video of my SB-16 Ultra. We will see...
I didn't see the tweeter! 😢😢😢
Subwoofers don't have tweeters. :)
I would have thought that they would have covered the amplifier like some amp assemblies that I’ve seen.
Do you mean enclosing the guts of the amplifier in their own enclosure? If I had to guess, they probably didn't do that for thermo reasons.
@@generationbehindhifi That what I was thinking. I've seen other amps in their own enclosure. For example, some Parts-Express amps - like the one I bought - are like that.

2.2 ohm is ridiculously low. That amp must get hot, no?
As long as the amplifier is design to handle that load then it won't be a problem. I didn't notice the amplifier getting hot at all when I had it.
2xPT + D class = 400 watt Music Power +-
I have one with the class D. Amp, my 30 plus yr old usa made mtx with 100 watt class ab amp.blows it away

Why not call them up and ask for a replacement driver? SVS's customer service is by far one of the best in the industry.
@@dans8935Because he's lying. Everyone who buys SVS and a lot who don't buy them know how good their customer service is and that they'd replace that driver in a heartbeat.
My PB2000-Pro failed in 1 year but they sent me a new amp and I was up and running in a week. Can't complain about that!
250Watt RMS +-
I sold both of my pb2000s….
To buy 2 pb3000s! 😅
Nice choice! I just bought a PB3000 too!
1250€. Totally overprized. 249€ the Chassis. 200€ amp .50€ enclosure. 😂😂😂😂😂🇩🇪
Then why don't you start making them and selling them cheaper?
