I kid I kid. Your wife is super hot!
If that doesn't work tell her that there is a 5% off on dual subs or return customers.
If that doesn't work either tell her a single sub looks asymmetrical and dual subs look far better and proportionate in the room.

My room is 17 X 11 feet with running Onkyo txnr 6050 paired with JBL STADIUM Venue Series floor standing pair and klipsch center and atmos speakers.
I didn't realize how much of a great thing it is until I set up my SB-1000 Pro.
I have a weird, tight corner setup that calls for me to climb behind my wide and low AV cabinet every time I need to make any sort of adjustment to my sub.
The space in the corner where the sub sits barely has enough room for me to stand in it, and even then I also have to tilt the sub over quite a bit to access the control panel since the back of the sub is pretty much just a couple of inches from the wall. And I have to do that climbing in and out procedure for every single adjustment.
With the app, I can make an adjustment and back again if needed from my listening position in a matter of seconds. And it might take a dozen or more adjustments of various parameters to get the settings right. And it's great to be able to do all this, listening for the changes each time from your seat, instead of running back and forth for every single adjustment.
So I can't recommend the Pro series with the phone app enough, especially if your placement is a tight or difficult one.
Another plus is that the app allows you to save three settings. This is great for me as I change between amps periodically and all the adjustments for each amp are already saved.
I only wish they would allow for at least two more slots for saving setting. I actually don't see why they couldn't easily do this.

I'm debating between the PB1000 pro and PB2000 (same price). People are saying that the PB2000 is definitely better, but I'd be losing the app controllability that the Pro has.

I'm running a two channel preamp and power amp that don't have the calibration features a home theater receiver might have, so my perspective is based on that.

That being said, I have a PB-1000 and it's incredible. Paired with a second matching sub (or mismatched), it will blow your mind. Such deep, feel it in your chest, lows. Crazy coming from a 10" woofer.
Highly recommend SVS!
I would agree, there is no better place to demo.
With SVS's Bill of Rights warranty there is no cost, other than time.
You're going to have a hard time without sacrificing some oomph.
I too prefer sealed and run dual SB3000's and are outstanding for such a small footprint!
This is in a dedicated HT room mediumish with one entrance.
Any bigger and or more open you might consider looking at SB4000.
Hope this helps good luck

wife likes something small. Is PB2000 sound substantially better than SB2000?
We may put sub down on HT once i frame and finish the basement (15x15x11) in next one year and until then it sits on living room (15x20x11). Either way we arent bass boomers, just need good depth, clarity and little bass on the movies we watch (I like good bass, wife doesnt, wife wins on living room). Very less on loud music, mostly classic/jazz with light music.
New to the HT, too bad, BB doesnt have the models on floor to test. Since you already own 3000, you might know the differences. Any suggestions?

I'm familiar with both, unfortunately way to many factors come into play and sound is subjective but here is my take.
You kinda described the pros and cons of both.
Wife will like the smaller footprint of the SB but will it give you enough depth for you to define as "good".
If you're set on SVS, the good thing is they give 45 days,no cost to return it and if it comes down to it a year to upgrade.
If your preference is open you could look at other common brands that people talk about in here(ie monolith,REL,HSU,etc) that might cost less.
People love to argue which is better and all their justifications why but TBH having heard most of them it comes down to a preference and you would only find that out by auditioning them for yourself.
IMO they are all good at that level and can't really go wrong with any of them.
Generally ported is liked/preferred for movies.
To get enough depth from a sealed comes at a price(and preference).
If it's SVS you want I suggest giving the PB a shot & if your wife is ok with it and you like it your are all good.
Luckily they are both on sale still.
