Seeking to Upgrade Subwoofer from SVS SB2000

There are a lot of different opinions regard SVS subwoofers. I own a SB3000 which I have low pass filter set at 33hz with my Dynaudio Emit 50s. I had tried several crossover settings from 50hz as recommended by SVS down to 40-42hz as recommended by my dealer. After an enjoyable afternoon of experimenting, when I settled on 33hz, the speakers disappeared. My room is 12 x 22 with 8 ft ceiling. I also have four GIK Soffit Bass Traps in the front corners. The volume level on the sub is set at -20. The soundstage is deep and wide with great clarity. Everything sounds so much better. I think the subs you have now could achieve similar results with a little tweaking on placement and settings.

servo subs are so much more controlled and punchy

Is a servo different from a regular plate amp? Or is it just a holdover term from the days of Apogee and IRS-V?

Just curious. Thanks!

My apologies for my request. I originally said in my post that I wanted to spend $1000.00 in total. The number was $2000.00 for 2 subs.  I am willing to spend $1000.00 per subwoofer and as of now I am interested in the SVS SB-4000, which is on sale for $1299.00 each with a $200.00 discount if you buy two.

Your idea of a pair of SB-4000 is a very good one. As an owner of six SB16Ultras (2 stacks of 3 each) I'd say if you can stretch your budget, the SB16Ultras would be an even better choice and they are on discount now too, since the release of SVS' new 17" flagship sub.

I've used my SVS "six-pack" with Sonus Faber Aidas, Wilson Audio Alexx and now Avantgarde Duo SD G3 and I can guarantee you will not run out of quality, musical bass regardless of your main speaker choices in the future, even with a single pair of SB16Ultras
