Is a pair worth it over one PB-1000 Pro?

Two subs even out room modes and add headroom, giving smoother, more consistent bass across seats. One is enough for many rooms; a pair suits larger spaces or critical listening.

How does it compare with the sealed SB-1000 Pro?

The ported PB-1000 Pro digs deeper and plays louder in the low bass. The sealed SB-1000 Pro is smaller and tighter for music-first setups in small rooms.

What is the frequency response?

SVS rates it at 17-260 Hz ±3 dB, with in-room response typically extending lower depending on placement.

Do I need the app to use it?

No. It works with its rear controls out of the box. The app adds EQ, room gain compensation and presets over Bluetooth.

What comes in the box?

Two PB-1000 Pro subwoofers in Black Ash, plus power cords and the usual documentation. Speaker cables are not included.

How much space does each cabinet need?

Each is about 18.9 x 15 x 20 inches. Leave clearance around the ports and avoid tight corners if you want the cleanest response.
