AC Power Connection
Connect the subwoofer power cord to the subwoofer amplifier 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 SB-3000 R|Evolution as these outlets are not meant for high power devices.
Line Level Connection – Single LFE Channel
The most common way to connect your SB-3000 R|Evolution is with a single RCA or XLR intercon-
nect cable going from the LFE or SUB1 Output on your AV receiver or preamplifier to the LFE
Input on your SB-3000 R|Evolution. This allows your processor to perform the upstream bass
management and send the subwoofer a pre-filtered mono signal.

Connecting Multiple Subwoofers or “Going Dual”
Running two or more subwoofers has many acoustic benefits such as: improved frequency
response throughout the listening area, fewer peaks and nulls, increased output and decreased
bass localization. The RCA and XLR Outputs provide an easy way to integrate multiple SB-3000
R|Evolution or other subwoofers into your audio system.
Many AV Receivers and Surround Processors have more than one subwoofer output.
As described previously, you can run a single connection from each subwoofer output
to each of your subwoofers.
If you have more subwoofers than Sub Outputs from your AV Receiver, an easy
solution is to use an RCA splitter or RCA 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.
Another option is to use the Left and Right RCA or XLR outputs on the SB-3000 R|Evolu-
tion to Daisy Chain additional subwoofers. It’s important to use the matching output
and input terminals. For example, if you are using the RCA inputs, be sure to use the
RCA outputs to daisy chain to the next subwoofer.
NOTE: While the settings of each subwoofer should be similar, you will probably find that
each sub will need to be calibrated for optimal performance because of its unique room
placement. Regardless of how you use your subwoofer, experimentation can often result in
better sound. Don't be afraid to try different settings, you can always return the controls to
their defaults.

Connecting Multiple Subwoofers or “Going Dual”
In a 2-channel system you can set up Stereo Subwoofers, where one is used for the Left Channel
and one for the Right Channel. Typically, the subwoofers will be symmetrically placed according
to your speakers. And be sure to maintain all the correct Left and Right output and input connec-
tions to ensure optimum performance.

Control Settings for AV Receiver & Processor
If using your SB-3000 R|Evolution subwoofer with an AV Receiver or preamp with bass manage-
ment, it is recommended to leave all control settings in the default position, aside from the
volume, which allows you to adjust the level of output based on your personal preferences.
NOTE: Always re-run AV Receiver auto-set-up after moving the subwoofer to a different 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 SVS Subwoofer Control App or using the controls on the rear
panel interface.
Please consult the Advanced Subwoofer Controls section of this owner’s manual or contact our
SVS Sound Experts if you have questions about any of the control settings.
www.svsound.com • [email protected] • (877) 626-5623
Control Settings for Stereo Receiver or Pre-Amplifier
Most Stereo Receivers and Pre-Amplifiers do not have bass management. Instead, you will use
the Left and Right full-range outputs and adjust through the DSP amplifier 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 Filter to “On” and adjust the Crossover Frequency and Slope to achieve a
smooth blend and transition with the main speakers.
Once blended, adjust the Subwoofer volume to match the volume level of your main speakers.
For finer tuning, our Subwoofer Matching Tool provides the recommended low pass filter
frequency and slope setting for most loudspeakers on the market. Just choose your brand and
model of speakers from the menus and the tool does the rest. It’s available 24/7, 365 at
www.svsound.com/merlin. Our SVS Sound Experts are also standing by to help with any connec-
tion or control questions you have about any of the controls or settings.
NOTE: Volume and low pass filter can be controlled from your mobile device via the SVS Subwoofer
Control App or using the buttons on the rear panel interface.

SUBWOOFER ROOM PLACEMENT
Placement of subwoofers is a process driven by competing variables that differ in every home.
Décor, floor 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 flexibility, 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, it’s best to find the ideal listening location in the
room. You’ll notice as you move through the room, bass response will vary significantly. 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 find
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 SB-3000 R|Evolution more
smoothly with your speakers or try pulling it further away from the walls to smooth out the bass
response.
SB-3000 R|Evolution
SUBWOOFER
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 effects.
Side Wall Placement
Side wall placement is less frequently used but can be an effective subwoofer location for
excellent accuracy and output.
SB-3000 R|Evolution
SUBWOOFER
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 first two options are proven performers with typically excellent results, they are often
difficult to implement in a living/family room environment. All rooms are different, so we recom-
mend staying flexible 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 flanking the center channel
to the inside of the main speakers.

ADVANCED SUBWOOFER CONTROLS
Volume
Adjust to make your system’s low end more powerful and extended while remaining accurate.
The subwoofer should sound like it’s naturally adding bass for all the speakers without overly
drawing attention to itself. Different content has different levels of output so it’s normal to adjust
volume based on source material and your personal listening preferences.
Low Pass Filter
Enables smooth sonic transition and flat frequency response between speakers and the
subwoofer. This allows you to control the upper frequency cut-off to blend with main speakers.
It also allows you to adjust slope, or the rate at which the low pass filter rolls off. If using an AV
Receiver with a Subwoofer Output, leave in the OFF position.
Phase Adjustment
Solves sound wave cancellation issues at specific frequencies 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 (SVS App Only)
In some cases, reversing polarity solves dips or humps at the crossover frequency between a
subwoofer and speaker and can be used to fix bass nulls or overly boomy spots in the listening
area. Reversing the electrical polarity of the subwoofer amplifier makes it so the woofer moves
in when speaker drivers move out and is normally set to positive.
SVS Auto EQ Room Correction (Coming Soon - SVS App Only)
Using the SVS app and the built-in microphone on your smartphone or an external mic, the
feature applies equalization filters, capitalizes on available room gain, and optimizes in-room
frequency response at main listening positions for optimal in-room performance.
The simple process requires just a few steps and can have a profound effect on performance. SVS
Auto EQ room correction will be available via an over-the-air app and firmware update coming
soon.
Parametric EQ (SVS App Only)
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 frequency of the filter, increase or decrease the SPL dB of the
filter, or adjust the bandwidth of the filter.
Room Gain Compensation (SVS App Only)
Fixes bloated sounding bass by optimizing low frequency output and extension when too much
sound wave density is being created by a small room.
SB-3000 R|Evolution
SUBWOOFER
Presets (SVS App Only)
Allows up to three pre-saved settings for movie, music and custom. This enables easy switching
