SVS PB17-Ultra 17 Inch Powered Subwoofer with Ported Box and DSP Control – Piano Gloss Black

The SVS PB17‑Ultra R|Evolution 17″ Powered Subwoofer in Piano Gloss Black represents the pinnacle of consumer subwoofer technology, engineered to deliver extraordinary bass performance for home theater and music systems. At its core is a massive 17‑inch high‑excursion driver with a dual‑8″ voice coil design that moves air with authority and precision, producing deep, room‑shaking bass with extension down into the lowest audible frequencies for visceral cinematic impact and musical depth. A triple front‑firing port design optimizes airflow and low‑frequency output, delivering powerful dynamics without distortion or port noise, even at very high listening levels.

Powering this subwoofer is a Class‑D dual mono‑block STA‑2800 amplifier paired with advanced DSP (Digital Signal Processing) running on a high‑speed Analog Devices platform that manages output with unmatched control, precision, and clarity. Users can tailor performance via the SVS Subwoofer Control smartphone app, adjusting volume, low‑pass filter, phase, parametric EQ, port tuning, and more from their listening seat, with future auto room correction capabilities enhancing in‑room response.

The acoustically tuned, rigid MDF cabinet with heavy internal bracing minimizes resonance and coloration, ensuring that the enormous power generated translates into clean, articulate bass rather than unwanted vibration or distortion. A sleek Piano Gloss Black finish gives this flagship‑class subwoofer a striking visual presence that complements premium audiovisual setups. With its combination of brute force, refined control, and modern connectivity, the PB17‑Ultra R|Evolution sets a new benchmark for home bass performance that can be both heard and felt.
