AC Power Connection
Connect the subwoofer power cord to the subwoofer ampli er and directly into an AC outlet.
Convenience outlets located on the rear panel of some AV receivers or pre/pros are NOT recom-
mended for your P -3000 as these outlets are not meant for high power devices.
Line Level Connection  Single LFE Channel
The most common way to connect your P -3000 is with a single RCA or XLR interconnect cable
going from the LFE or SU 1 Output on your AV receiver or preampli er to the LFE Input on your
P -3000. This allows your processor to perform the upstream bass management and send the
subwoofer a pre- ltered mono signal.

This feature will automatically turn the subwoofer on/o when a si nal is sent to the tri er input
from another component in the system (typically the pre/pro or AV receiver). The other compo-
nent in the system must be equipped with a tri er output feature and requires a TS 1/8 mono
cable (pictured below).

CONNECTING & CONTROLLING YOUR SUBWOOFER
Connecting Multiple Subwoofers or Going Dual
Running two or more subwoofers has many acoustic bene ts such as: improved frequency
response throughout the listening area, fewer peaks and nulls, increased output and decreased
bass localization. The RC and XLR Outputs provide an easy way to integrate multiple
PB-3000s or other subwoofers into your audio system.
Many V Receivers and Surround Processors have more than one subwoofer output.
s described previously, you can run a single connection from each subwoofer output
to each of your subwoofers.
f you have more subwoofers than Sub Outputs from your V Receiver, an easy
solution is to use an RC splitter or RC Y-adapter to divide the subwoofer output. This
is the most commonly recommended way to connect multiple subwoofers when there
is only one Sub Out.
nother option is to use the Left and Right RC or XLR outputs on the PB-3000 to Daisy
Chain additional subwoofers. Its important to use the matching output and input
terminals. For example, if you are using the RC inputs, be sure to use the RC outputs
to daisy chain to the next subwoofer.
NOTE: While the settings of each subwoofer should be similar, you will probably nd that
each sub will need to be calibrated for optimal performance because of its unique room
placement. Regardless of how you use your subwoofer, e perimentation can often result in
better sound. Don't be afraid to try di erent settings, you can always return the controls to
their defaults.

Control Settings for AV Receiver & Processor
If using your PB-3000 subwoofer with an AV Receiver or preamp with bass management, it is
recommended to eave a contro settings in the defau t position, aside from the vo ume, which
a ows you to adjust the eve of output based on your persona preferences. Set the PB-3000
vo ume to -10 before running auto-set-up in the AV receiver/processor.
NOTE: Always re-run AV Receiver auto-set-up after moving the subwoofer to a di erent location to
ensure the acoustic distance and calibration levels are set correctly
NOTE: If you want to run the subwoofer louder than the initial auto-set-up level, adjust the subwoofer
channel level upward in the AV receiver menu until you get the experience and performance you want
An increase of 2-4 dB louder than initial set-up level is common for many customers Volume can be
controlled from your mobile device via the Free SVS App, from the IR Remote Control, or using the
buttons on the front panel interface
P ease consu t the Advanced Subwoofer Contro s section of this owner’s manua or contact our
SVS Sound Experts if you have questions about any of the contro settings.
www.svsound.com • [e-mail] • [phone]
Control Settings for Stereo Receiver or Pre-Ampli er
Most Stereo Receivers and Pre-Amp i ers do not have bass management. Instead you wi use
the Left and Right fu -range outputs and make adjustments through the DSP amp i er on the
subwoofer.
Be sure to connect both Left and Right outputs to the Left and Right inputs on the subwoofer.
Set the Low Pass Fi ter to “On” and adjust the Crossover Frequency and S ope to achieve a
smooth b end and transition with the main speakers.
Once b ended, adjust the Subwoofer vo ume to match the vo ume eve of your main speakers.
For ner tuning, our Merlin Subwoofer Selection Tool provides the recommended ow pass
ter frequency and s ope setting for most oudspeakers on the market. Just choose your brand
and mode of speakers from the menus and Mer in does the rest. It’s avai ab e 24/7, 365 at

SUBWOOFER ROOM PLACEMENT
Placement of subwoofers is a process driven by competing variables that di er in every home.
Décor, oor space, furniture, speaker placement, seating location, and of course, sound quality
all factor into the decision of where a subwoofer should be placed. If you have exibility, there s
an artistry to subwoofer placement that can be aided by understanding some basic acoustic
principles and set-up techniques.
If you are limited to a single subwoofer location, its best to nd the ideal listening location in the
room. You ll notice as you move through the room, bass response will vary signi cantly. This is
due to the complex pattern of standing sound waves in the room. Sometimes simply moving a
few feet in any given direction can improve the balance and accuracy dramatically. Once you nd
the ‘subwoofer sweet spot in the room – reserve that seat for yourself!
Corner Placement
Corner placement of a subwoofer reduces the potential to encounter nulls, which are acoustic
cancellation points or ‘dead spots in the room. While this can often make for hugely impactful
bass, it can sometimes result in a “boomy” sound depending on your listening position. If you
experience this, you can use the tuning controls to blend your PB-3000 more smoothly with your
speakers or try pulling it further away from the walls to smooth out the bass response.
PB-3000
SUBWOOFER
page 12 | owners manual

SUBWOOFER ROOM PLACEMENT
Front Placement
Front of the room placement in between or just to the side of the front channel speakers is
another common choice. Front of the room placement usually results in the best blending with
the main speakers and center channel and minimizes localization e ects.
Side Wall Placement
Side wall placement is less frequently used but can be an e ective subwoofer location for
excellent accuracy and output.
PB-3000
SUBWOOFER
owners manual | page 13

SUBWOOFER ROOM PLACEMENT
Dual Subwoofer Placement
Based on our own extensive testing, and research done by the professional audio community, we
recommend the following placement options for dual subwoofers:
While the rst two options are proven performers with typically excellent results, they are often
di cult to implement in a living/family room environment. All rooms are di erent, so we recom-
mend staying exible and trying all possible placement options for the best results.
Opposite diagonal front/rear corners.
Front stage in the corners.
At the mid-points of the side walls.
Front stage anking the center channel
to the inside of the main speakers.

ADVANCED SUBWOOFER CONTROLS
Volume
Setting the level too high will cause the bass to seem bloated and is the single most common
cause of bad sounding subwoofers. A rule of thumb is that the subwoofer should not draw
attention to itself, but should simply make the systems low end seem more extended and
accurate. Di erent content has di erent levels of output so adjust volume based on source
material and your personal preference.
Low Pass Filter
Enables smooth sonic transition and at fre uency response between speakers and the
subwoofer. This allows you to control the upper fre uency cut-o to blend with main speakers.
It also allows you to adjust slope, or the rate at which the low pass lter rolls o . If using an AV
Receiver with a Subwoofer Output, leave in the OFF position.
Phase Adjustment
Solves sound wave cancellation issues at speci c fre uencies and perfectly aligns the arrival of
output from speakers and subwoofers to your listening position. Normally set to 0° if the
subwoofer is near the main speakers. Adjusting Phase shifts timing of the subwoofer output to
align with the main speakers or additional subwoofers.
Polarity
In some cases, reversing polarity solves dips or humps at the crossover fre uency between a
subwoofer and speaker and can be used to x bass nulls or overly boomy spots in the listening
area. Reversing the electrical polarity of the subwoofer ampli er makes it so the woofer moves
in when speaker drivers move out and is normally set to positive
Parametric EQ
Powerful tool for removing peaks and dips in your listening area, and for creating custom
subwoofer output based on personal listening preferences. Works best when used with acoustic
measurements.
Allows you to set the desired center fre uency of the lter, increase or decrease the SPL dB of the
lter, or adjust the bandwidth of the lter.
Room Gain Compensation
Fixes bloated sounding bass by optimizing low fre uency output and extension when too much
sound wave density is being created by a small room.
