I’m about to push the button to get 2 SVS 3000 micros to add to ATC SCM40s.


Anyone want to talk me out of it?

I've got a pair in stereo and they are a great little sub, not the best for a deep frequency dive but for 98% of music they do great.

Installed one micro in a smaller 2 channel set up in the living room. That little thing kicks some serious beans. 

Thanks, y’all. 

They’re coming on Saturday. Then I’ll tinker incessantly for the rest of my life.

My wife resents deep frequency dives. She likes small boxes. She’s indifferent to my fascination with sound. I like her anyway.

Congrats!  I’m sure you’re gonna be thrilled.  Please follow up with impressions if you could.  BTW, SVS has excellent customer service so you might want to describe your room to them and they’ll probably cut down your tinker time considerably with some helpful tips — that’s what I’d do.  Once you get them dialed in let your wife listen to a good recording and while it’s playing turn the subs off and look at her reaction.  She might end up really loving those small boxes.  And if she cuts you some slack with this audio silliness I’d say you got a good one and a keeper.  Love your speakers BTW.  Are they version 1 or 2, and what amp are you driving them with?

Version two. I’ve got an older Musical Fidelity a 308 integrated amp, and recently introduced a Moon Mind 2 streamer and a Denifrips Pontus 2. I think the subs will finish things off for me, but you never know when a future audio itch needs scratching, do you?

Anyway, having started modestly just a few years ago, I think I have great-sounding compatible components now.
