Product Details
An unrelenting passion for breathtaking bass performance and engineering perfection guided every aspect of the PB16-Ultra subwoofer’s development. Groundbreaking technology, rigorous design and extreme testing in real world and laboratory environments allowed SVS to achieve unmatched low frequency extension and output capabilities all while keeping it amazingly detailed and articulate. The culmination of all SVS design advancements, PB16-Ultra represents an incomparable bass experience. Nothing else comes close.
The SVS PB16-Ultra is an engineering marvel, combining three groundbreaking innovations that have propelled it into the upper echelon of all-time great audio products.
First, the PB16-Ultra boasts a massive new 16-inch SVS Ultra driver with an unprecedented 8-inch edge wound voice coil, the largest ever used in a consumer subwoofer. This design enables ultra-low distortion and precise control even at high output levels, ensuring superior accuracy and speed without any boomy effects. Four powerful toroidal ferrite magnets drive the 16-inch driver, delivering peak-to-peak excursion of 95mm and generating astonishing motor force and sound pressure levels (SPLs). The fiberglass resin composite cone is both lightweight and rigid, maximizing air movement and sonic clarity.
Second, the Sledge STA-1500D amplifier delivers stunning power with fully discrete MOSFET output, producing 1,500 watts continuous and over 5,000 watts peak. This class-leading amplifier pushes the 16-inch driver to unprecedented performance levels, all while maintaining refined control. The advanced Analog Devices DSP manages the immense power, ensuring precise low-frequency output at just the right moments.
Finally, the innovative SVS smartphone app, compatible with Apple and Android, allows users to control all DSP functions remotely. The app provides real-time feedback and Bluetooth connectivity for easy adjustments, even when the subwoofer is out of sight. Paired with an acoustically inert cabinet featuring double-thick MDF and rigid internal bracing, the PB16-Ultra eliminates resonance and coloration, delivering clean, impactful bass even at extreme levels.
