The ones with blemishes are new units ? Or are they used ones with 5 year warranty.

I have 2 * Bic f12 and considering selling those to get the 350$ subs

SVS says gently used with a full 5 year warranty, and will function like new.
My advice is to look for a blem near the bottom or near the face, where the grill will hide it.
Also keep in mind where you will place the sub. If the blem is on the left and you're putting it in a left corner, it may be out of site.

I'm beyond impressed... I ordered a PB-2000 through the outlet in January, and just now received an email stating that I would receive a "price protection" refund since my purchase had been made within 60 days of the sale. I had no idea they even had price protection coverage like this. Huge thumbs up to SVS.

Hsu Research all day long. I have two VTF-2 MK5s and they rock. SVS makes good subs too.

Does SVS ever have a non-outlet sale where other stores might price match, and you can get newer subs like the SB2000 pro? From searching past history most sales are only outlet ones.

The sb16 is out of this world. I have an open plan and i can hear and feel the base from a bedroom on the otherside of the house.

Right now I have dual Dayton sub 1200s in a 14x20 room.

Thoughts on replacing both of them with one pb1000?

I just bought the svs sb12-nsd for movies on a warehouse deal. I'm a little underwhelmed with the lack of punch from this sub. Would the pb-1000 be better?

I think used, but they have the same warranty as new. I think these used items are from their generous return policy.

I bought my PB2000 from one of these sales back in 2016. This is the same price; so, don't expect much better of a sale.

Generally, a ported Sub is better suited for movies. Sealed subs usually have that "tighter", "punchy" sound better for music but a ported sub will give you that deep "boom". The PB-1000 goes down to 19hz. Also, it depends on the size of the room that you're trying to fill so if you're trying to fill a 600+ sq. ft living room, a solo SB-12 might not adequately fill the space.
