SB17-Ultra R|Evolution

A quantum leap forward in design and performance with multiple groundbreaking innovations - the most formidable and sophisticated sealed subwoofer ever developed.

All-new 17-inch driver with first-ever dual 8-inch voice coils. The most powerful amplifier ever deployed in a consumer subwoofer with unprecedented dual mono-block design married to the extreme intelligence of a 295MHz DSP. All managed by the most sophisticated subwoofer control app, now with auto EQ room correction (available soon via over-the-air update).

Born from three decades of SVS design expertise, SB17-Ultra R|Evolution is the pinnacle of subwoofer performance. A massive 17-inch driver with first ever dual 8-in voice coils driven by the most powerful amplifier ever deployed in a consumer subwoofer with DSP intelligence far beyond anything available. All married to advanced power management and auto EQ room correction. The benchmark for reference subwoofer experiences has arrived.

Breathtaking low frequencies with unerring accuracy, musicality, and stop-on-a-dime control. The deep, chest-thumping slam of cinematic soundtracks and the delicate nuance of musical bass always rendered truthfully.

Whether heard or felt, low frequencies are handled effortlessly without sacrificing sonic fidelity and refinement. With extension to 15 Hz, far below the threshold of human hearing SB17-Ultra R|Evolution brings sound to life with convincing, visceral, and jaw-dropping impact.
