The SVS PB13-Ultra is meant to compare favorably with top-tier subwoofers in high-end theaters or media rooms costing far far more than this one, yet do it with style, features and build quality which make one thing clear -- the PB13-Ultra takes a back seat to virtually nothing on the market in this class. Certainly not something so affordable. Built in our Ohio factory with both domestic and imported components, try just one. Or for real power users, perhaps a pair. Either way, you have effortless, natural sound that literally is in a class of its own.
This subwoofer had a tough act to follow. Our original PB12-Ultra was already one of the finest most sought in the world. Over two years our team designed its heart, the new Ultra-13 woofer seen above, to ensure you couldn't spend your hard earned audio budget more wisely.
Check out the sleek styling of the PB13-Ultra in one of four finishes, which make for an alluring look even for a "super-sized" product like this. Hand-finished cabinets, and even a detachable magnetic grill for a strong statement with or without it. And of course, get ready to dig into a host of advanced yet easy to use audio features too.
Variable tuning allows you to alter the amount of deep bass, and our room-size compensation control means this power will adapt to your room, not just our labs. Power users will appreciate the parametric equalizer, yet this advanced feature is easily disabled should you want to keep setup most simple.
Get a PB13-Ultra if you demand the "best" in your purchases (be they cars, wine, steak... what have you). Of course if you have a very large room, or simply an insatiable appetite for deep bass, get two PB13-Ultra's.
SVS Ultra-13 High Output Subwoofer Driver
The "driver" (or "woofer") inside our subs is the heart of what has made SVS so famous in the audio world. The entirely new " Ultra-13" (as it's called in-house) seen here is arguably one of the finest you can own, at any price, and its only in our PB13-Ultra and its "Powered Cylinder" brother, the new PC- Ultra. This truly amazing woofer is built exclusively by us, exclusively for you. Virtually every part was designed by our Ohio based crew with an eye towards the best performance possible. We don't even ask the price till we're happy we've met the demanding standards we know you will demand yourself. Beautiful, bullet-proof, and with high-tech features the most tech savvy audiophile in your home will envy.
For starters, check out the stunning SVS die cast "basket" which holds the rest of our painstakingly researched parts. Also prominent are materials from the aerospace industry such as the front "cone", and superior USA made" voice-coils" deep inside. Many critical parts are invisible, yet vital to long life, not to mention the brutal yet subtle demands your movies and music will place upon this gem. Many features are innovations virtually no other brands will use even if you do spend far more, often thousands more. It's the advantage of buying factory direct -- we spare little expense when it comes to ensuring the core technology runs strong and deep today, and will humble far more expensive products on the market for many years to come.
