That's funny cause I prefer nothing on the front and the logo on the back!

That is because you are still trying to impress the ladys with your pecs, and the logo would get in the way.

lol Honestly that isn't me at all. I've just always liked a no-logo front since I was a kid.

The fit is perfect, too! I usually have to be picky about fit because you know I do all that working out stuff, but these have a modern cut - broad on the shoulders/arms and not too tight, but a slight taper to the waist so that it isn't flapping in the wind and getting caught on door handles lol.

Front



Back

I have one of those myself from when I ordered one of my previous subs. Good looking shirt and thick/strong enough to absorb sweat...perfect for lugging around heavy subs.

That they are. Not a cheap shirt at all.

I also wouldn't mind a baseball cap, too. Hmm... gonna go check the website now.

How would you know where the best location is to install these sub(s)?

That's really cool.

Has anyone else had a ton of “spam” over the course of a few days from SVS? I’ve had to unsubscribe.

Always happens during the holidays for their sales.

They need to sort it out. I didn't want to unsubscribe, but getting loads of emails about sales not even relevant to my location is plain annoying.

Can they not do a preferences list like some others? So you can opt out of certain emails.

Personally, I don't mind the ads. I'm a sucker enough for SVS products that there were a few times when I wasn't in the market for anything, but I bought a t-shirt.

I should have asked the rep on the phone for a t-shirt when I purchased the 4 Elevation speakers. I spent over $1,000, so he probably would have thrown one in.

Without me asking, they threw in a t-shirt with my PB1000 Pros a couple of years ago. At the time they were just cracking the $1k price point so maybe you'll get one anyway?

I spent less than that and got one, so probably.

I spent $20 and got one.

[Show spoiler]Ok, I actually bought another t-shirt.

The boxes are in storage, so I won't find out until I open them up at the new place. I will say the boxes look pretty tight for 2 speakers each, but maybe they can still stuff one in there. I am crossing my fingers....

Ugh. I've been noticing my PB-1000 randomly rattling here lately during LFE scenes but tonight it broke me. I popped in Enter the Dragon 4K and the entire opening was just nothing but rattling. Granted, it's really intense bass but I've had other movies with intense bass that never had the problem before.

Putting my ear to it, it's coming from the right port. I actually have a 2nd PB-1000 for my PC/gaming setup. I decided to hook it up with the exact same settings and I didn't get any rattle for the same scene.

I'm a bit of a subwoofer newb. Is there anything I can do to see what could be causing the port rattle or should I just contact SVS? From what I'm reading, could it be an air leak?

These things look pretty sealed up so I don't really see much that I could do on my end. Just dreading a RMA and shipping if that's what it comes to...

Did you make sure nothing slid into the port? One time a digital copy slip fell into one of the port holes and created a rattle sound.

That would be something but nope, everything looks good. I'm guessing it's a bad driver or bad port assembly.

Reach out to SVS. They'll try to have you recreate the issue and capture a video of it, their engineers will review the video and then recommend form there. I had an issue with one of my older subs that had already had a board replaced previously, went through this process and they ended up sending me a brand new replacement driver free of charge.

I totally agree with what Rage says.....SVS stands by their products and their customer support is one of the best around.
