Help finding a subwoofer


I want a subwoofer that meets the following criteria.

1. 12 inch driver max size. Or 8 inch driver plus passive driver. Or 10 inches driver.

2. Android or IPhone or iPad app to change settings anytime I want.

3. Speaker high level inputs.

Please if you know any let me know.

System is for music primarily movies completely secondary. I really have two systems that can use the sub(s). Main drivers do not go low. On set is Cain and Cain single Ben with Fostex 8 inch driver. the other Martin Logan Motion 15, these are nice small speakers that Are not expensive.

Thanks for your contributions

Just installed an SVS micro 3000 in my living room system and I am simply blown away. Something so tiny can perform this well?? I was a bit taken aback. I have an SVS PB 2000 in my man cave and this little micro is right on par. To me the 2000 is laid back presence, the 3000 micro is speed… both produce extension, both are easy to adjust with the app. Both simply disappear. Size wise the 2000 is very big and would have never been sanctioned by my better half in the living room. The micro is so small it can be a bit more hidden. I’ve really only had a couple days with the micro, but I am just thrilled with it. I bought mine through the outlet tab on the SVS site and save a few clams. I recommend it highly. 
 

P.S. nice reviews from well known HIFI mags.

@alanpiga  the PB2000 to me is better musically. It just breathes and has such a presence. Makes sense, the box is huge by comparison, as is the driver. Funny thing is the internal amp in the micro is more powerful. I have read that folks seem to like the SB2000 more for music, reportedly faster and more musical likely due to being sealed as opposed to a ports on the PB.

Couple of variables to me that could be in play is my two rooms are quite a bit different. The basement room has loads of room treatment. Corner foam, stand alone traps and about half the back wall covered in acoustic foam panels. Living room is smaller and has no treatment at all. I think if I could have a bigger sub box in the living room I would have gone with either the PB2000 or the SB2000.
