Pressurize Any Room and Bring the Bass with the SVS PB-5000 R|Evolution Subwoofer: Triple-Ported Design Features 15-Inch Driver, 295MHz DSP, Monoblock Amplifier, Room Correction, and 153.9-Pound Heft
Bring the boom and pressurize any room with the SVS PB-5000 R|Evolution subwoofer. Loaded with trickle-down technology and advances gleaned from SVS' flagship Ultra R|Evolution Series and a continuous Class D amp with more than 5,000 watts of peak power ability, this triple-ported design comes ready to play. And slay.
Further equipped with a proprietary 15-inch long-throw high-excursion driver with dual edge-wound voice coils and 295MHz Analog Devices DSP complete with DACs with a 120dB SNR ratio, PB-5000 R|Evolution delivers low-frequency detail, notes, and harmonics with wowing accuracy, output, and control. Heard and felt, the low end registered by the hulking 153.9-pound PB-5000 R|Evolution remains refined and controlled, and extends down to 13Hz.
Able to provide jolting cinematic slam from blockbuster films and live sporting events, as well as delicate nuances and revealing textures from musical programs, PB-5000 R|Evolution plays with stability, focus, efficiency, and quickness. Its all-new driver uses a weighty 46.3-pound woofer featuring a 38.4-pound motor and three-inch-diameter voice coil with high-current six-layer bifilar flat-edge wound aluminum windings. Each of its STA-2000D monoblock amplifiers with MOSFET output stages drives one of the dual voice coils to double the amount of current fed to the driver, achieving effortless output with lower continuous current demand from your AC circuit. Its DSP arrives as the most advanced processor found in a consumer-grade subwoofer, while the switch-mode power supply further optimizes the signal quality and overall sonics.
In addition to smart engineering that extends to an onboard AC line conditioner that filters incoming voltage and a FEA-optimized convection cooling system free of exterior heatsinks, PB-5000 R|Evolution makes life easy with a smartphone control app and amplifier interface compatible with Apple iOS, Google Android, and Amazon Fire platforms. Enjoy convenient subwoofer calibration and management with controls for practically every function, memory presets, variable port tuning modes, and a rear-panel OLED that offers fast, direct access to the most important features — and which comes complete with a “Display Flip” option.
PB-5000 R|Evolution also seamlessly interfaces with your room and system. This mind-bending subwoofer has auto-room correction that tunes the output using your smartphone microphone and the SVS subwoofer app. Here, you can apply equalization filters, capitalize on available room gain, and optimize in-room frequency response at main listening positions for optimal performance.
Measuring a quite sizeable 23.4 x 20.5 x 28.7 inches (HWD), PB-5000 R|Evolution is housed in a robust MDF cabinet with strategic internal bracing to cancel resonance even at the highest volumes. Nickel-plated spring terminals, a protective ABS grille frame with fabric mesh cover, screw-in iso-elastomer feet, a supplied six-foot power cord, and a five-year manufacturer warranty round out a subwoofer that you'll truly never forget.
Experience PB-5000 R|Evolution in your own home with a risk-free audition backed by our 60-day satisfaction guarantee. To learn more, reach out to us at 312-433-0200.
- Massively powerful 2,000-watt continuous Class D design with over 5,000 watts of Peak Power.
- High resolution 295Mhz Analog Devices Audio DSP with double precision 56bit filtering, with over 5x the processing power of our previous subwoofers, the most advanced subwoofer processor available for perfect audio reproduction.
- DSP monitors every function of the amplifier ensuring precisely regulated clean voltage is delivered to and from the switch mode power supply and maximum current is pushed to the driver's voice coils.
- DSP Continuously runs complex power management algorithms and multi-point thermal, voltage, and current monitoring systems to optimize AC voltage delivery to the power supply for continuous peak performance with maximum performance and greatest efficiency.
- Advanced digital audio processing and DACs (Digital-to-Analog Converters) with 120 dB Signal-to-Noise Ratio provide greater headroom, lower noise, and flawless fidelity.
- Dual-mono discrete Class D amplifiers create effortless and endless power from eight massive 60A 200V MOSFETs, resulting in lower EMI and highest efficiency while providing effortless power each voice coil, producing SPLs and low frequency output with pristine clarity well beyond reference listening levels.
- All new Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) includes a two-stage 100v-240v full range active Power Factor Correction (PFC) which pre-regulates mains to solid 390V DC regardless of mains voltage or quality, ensuring a consistent 160V rail voltage for the dual-mono amplifiers.
- Power-Factor-Correction (PFC) time aligns the AC voltage to the AC current resulting in less heat, greater efficiency, peak power output, and the ability to maintain rated power over a wide-range of AC voltages.
- Onboard AC line conditioner filters and stabilizes incoming voltage, corrects waveform distortions, and eliminates electromagnetic and radio interferences to optimize signal quality and audio performance.
- New convective cooling plate design pulls cool outside air through vents at the bottom of the amplifier plate, flowing over the amplifier components and internal heat sinks, eliminating the need for an external heatsinks.
- Customer EQ and DSP limiter settings specifically for the 5000 series allow the subwoofer to take control of a room and pressurize it with accurate, heart-pounding, acoustically tuned bass.
