The SVS SB-1000 subwoofer is small enough to conceal in any room, and with its 12-inch front-firing driver and 300 watts RMS, 700+ watts peak power amplifier, energizes a room with deep, effortless and articulate bass.

This is a buyer’s market for entry-level sealed subs, and the A$560 asking price for the SVS SB-1000 in new condition is fair, sitting just below the 75th percentile of A$565 from our database of seven recent AUD comps. With a median of A$500 and a 25th percentile of A$325, this listing isn’t a bargain but reflects the premium for new, original-owner gear rather than an ambitious overprice.
The SB-1000 remains a king-of-value subwoofer, praised for its tight, distortion-free low end down to 20Hz and its 12-inch driver paired with a robust 325W Class D amp. In new condition, it offers the full performance of a well-regarded entry model without the wear or unknown history of older units, making A$560 a solid buying opportunity for anyone seeking reliable, room-filling bass without stepping into higher-priced territory.

SVS Sound emerged in 1998 from a garage in Youngstown, Ohio, founded by a team of passionate audio engineers frustrated with overpriced, underwhelming subwoofers. Headquartered in the U.S., the brand disrupted the market by selling high-quality subs directly to consumers online, bypassing traditional retail markups while leveraging American manufacturing and cutting-edge engineering. This direct-to-consumer model, combined with rigorous testing, quickly established SVS as a force in affordable performance audio.
The company specializes in subwoofers, which remain its cornerstone with five dedicated lines from the entry-level 1000 series to the flagship Ultra series, but has expanded into full-range speakers, wireless audio devices, and cables. Under President and CEO Gary Yacoubian, SVS delivers sophisticated technology and immersive sound across home theater and hi-fi categories, prioritizing precision drivers, advanced amplification, and real-world optimization without venturing into amplifiers, turntables, DACs, or headphones.
SVS holds a commanding position as the world's top subwoofer brand and a leading "bang-for-the-buck" speaker maker, blending reference-level performance with mid-tier pricing to appeal to discerning buyers seeking high-end results on a budget. No longer just a niche disruptor, it boasts global reach through online and retail channels, earning acclaim for democratizing exceptional audio.
