Unbox It
Quick Start Guide
SB-4000
If you followed the SB-4000 Subwoofer unboxing instructions properly you will
have the following items in front of you. Please confirm all pieces are available
before continuing.
Congratulations on choosing the SVS SB-4000, one of the most powerful and advanced subwoof-
ers available. We know you’re anxious to get it cranking so the following the steps will guide you
through the quick and easy installation process.
We strongly recommend reading the SB-4000 Owner’s Manual to get the best possible
performance out of your new subwoofer. You’ll find useful information about subwoofer
placement, connections, DSP functions and more.
[SB-4000 Subwoofer] [Removable Metal Grille]
[Detachable Power Cord] [IR Remote Control]
For most set-ups, a single RCA subwoofer interconnect cable running from the AV Receiver’s “SUB 1” output to the SB-4000’s
“LFE” line level input is all that’s required to connect the subwoofer into your system. If you run separate Preamplifier and Power
Amplifiers, follow the “Line Level Connection – Stereo Receiver or Preamplifier Left/Right Channels” connection guide below.

The location of your subwoofer in the listening environment can affect its performance. If possible, start with corner placement
on the same wall as the front speakers, or anywhere along the front stage in between or outside of your main speakers.
Our Sound Experts are standing by to help with subwoofer placement, installation,
calibration, AV receiver settings, room rattle and anything else you need advice about.
Just call, email or chat online with our Sound Experts:

Corner Placement: offers huge impact and reduces the
potential to encounter bass nulls, or ‘dead spots’. If “boomi-
ness” occurs, you can try pulling it away from the wall and
using the DSP tuning controls to smooth performance.
Front Placement: In between or to the side of the front
channel speakers often results in the best blending with the
main speakers and center channel and minimizes localiza-
tion effects.
Side Wall Placement: Side wall placement is less frequently
used but can be an effective subwoofer location for
excellent accuracy and output.

If your set-up doesn’t include an
Auto-EQ feature, adjust the
subwoofer volume control to
level-match to your loudspeakers.
For additional guidance on recom-
mended crossover settings, visit our
Merlin Subwoofer Matching tool at
www.svsound.com/merlin, or
contact our Sound Experts.
Set the SB-4000 volume to -10, then run auto-set-up in the AV receiver/proces-
sor. It is important to re-run your receiver’s calibration set-up if you are upgrad-
ing from another subwoofer and each time you move the subwoofer.
The font panel features an intuitive
user interface with simplified button
controls that can be used to adjust the
majority of the subwoofer’s advanced
control settings.
The SVS App is the easiest and most convenient way to
access all of the advanced control features available on
your SB-4000, from the comfort of your favorite seat.
The included IR remote is another
convenient way to adjust your
subwoofer’s advanced control
settings.
