About this app

The SVS app is the easiest way to unleash the full potential of your SVS 16-Ultra, 4000 Series, 3000 Series, 3000 Micro, 3000 In-Wall, 2000 Pro Series, and 1000 Pro Series subwoofers by allowing advanced DSP functionality and optimization based on your room, speakers and personal listening preferences. The app is also available as part of the SVS 13-Ultra Amplifier Upgrade Kit for existing owners of the SVS SB13, PB13, PC13-Ultra, PB12-PLUS, and PC12-PLUS Subwoofers.

The SVS app lets you do simple things like control volume and create custom presets that enable easy, one-touch tuning for music, movies and other content. More advanced functionality of the SVS subwoofer app include the ability to correct room anomalies and fine tune bass output so you can enjoy the full depth, force and nuance from the world’s finest subwoofers.

When used with your SVS subwoofer, the app takes the mystery out of subwoofer digital signal processing (DSP) by clearly explaining each feature and providing easy control from your mobile device. If you’re new to subwoofer DSP, the SVS app has a helpful tutorial that guides you through the different settings.

With a few simple adjustments, you can eliminate boomy spots, set crossover frequencies and make other adjustments to get the deepest, tightest, most accurate and room-energizing bass response possible from your SVS subwoofer. Adjustments can be made from the comfort of your favorite seat or even when the subwoofer is not in site and two-way communication shows updates on the subwoofer panel interface.

With SVS, you can easily optimize settings for:
• Volume Control
• Low Pass Filter
• Phase
• Polarity
• Parametric EQ
• Room Gain Compensation
• Port Tuning (Ported models only)
• Custom Presets
• System Settings
• Subwoofer Front Display (16-Ultra, 4000 Series and 3000 In-Wall only)

The SVS app works with Android 8.0 or newer.

Ratings and reviews

Not very intuitive, needs a lot of work. Is slow to connect to subwoofers, takes forever to load controls! The presets are very limited and are not user friendly to save or load. Is not intelligent enough to say that Bluetooth is not turned on. Rather shows incorrect, fake subwoofer information! Switching between devices is crazy slow too. Volume takes forever to load.

I've been using this app on my Pixel phone and iPhone for a little over 3 years. Having the app has significantly improved my life, and it would be challenging without it. It would be nice to see some additional features, perhaps more options beyond the standard movie, music, and custom categories. SVS's customer service is second to none, but it would be helpful to have an up-to-date video guiding users through all the settings with examples. Thank you, SVS.

Three stars because the latest build, 1.3.82, has broken the preset function. Well it's not completely broken. You select your saved preset, it loads, but when you come back into the app it displays "None". Other users on FB have verified this issue. This didn't happen before the most recent update. I have been in contact with SVS support since January, and Ryan is aware of my issue. All they can tell me is the next update should correct the issue. Hope is gets here, before my next sub. 😂
