Product Details:
- THX® Certified Ultra: THX® engineers completed hundreds of different scientific tests to ensure the highest audio performance possible. The tests ensure the speaker can reach the high volumes necessary to achieve THX Reference Level, without creating audible distortion or artifacts. THX® Certified Ultra products are designed for large rooms, up to 3,000 cubic feet in size, with a 10~12 foot viewing distance from the screen.
- 13" Woofer: The Monolith™ 13" driver was developed from the ground up, with a design focus on achieving output, accuracy, dynamics, and linearity, while minimizing distortion. It is enclosed in a cabinet made from HDF material, with massive internal bracing, and outfitted with three ports that can use foam plugs to run the subwoofer in sealed, semi‑sealed, or ported mode, as you see fit.
- 2000 Watt Amplifier: The 2000‑watt (RMS) amplifier (3800+‑watt peak) is built around a Texas Instruments® 48‑bit data path, with 28‑bit filter coefficients, and DSP engine. Each amplifier's transfer function, power output limiting, and thermal protection are monitored to the millisecond and are customized for each individual driver. The high efficiency Class D amplifier modules are based on a proven topology that has been continuously refined over the past 8 years. The amplifier has vast reserves of power for highly accurate, deep bass for your home theater or music system.

Should I use this instead of my Rythmik F12se for my home theater set up?
I use it for 75% music and 25% movies
What is sq and spl 1-10 for the rythmik and monolith subwoofers?

Still juggling between "enough" performance, longativity (aka amps won't die), and cost.
The Bowers and Wilkins ASW610 @ half off and for $450 is so attractive, but this for $200 more has literally 10x power. And then SB-3000 for $750 is great too, heard so many great things about SVS but never owned a piece. I have the ASW610 in box but leaning toward returning it...
There is no real benefit matching a sub with your loudspeakers.
Nothing will touch this performance at this price especially if your main preference is low bass extension!
The big hurdle, do you want to gamble on getting one without issues.
Even if something happens within warranty period it's often a major PITA.
That great performance is irrelevant if it's not working!
I run two SB-3000 and are outstanding for the $850/$900 cost I paid.
People always say SVS cost more, IMO you get what you pay for, part of that is great CS!
I will point out I prefer SVS performance, all my speakers are full range and my environment is dedicated and well treated.
If your layout is open, in general the SB-3000 might not be the best choice. Maybe two but even that might not get you there.
This brings up another benefit to SVS.
If you buy directly from SVS they give 45 days to try it and if you're not happy for whatever reason, you get a full refund & don't pay shipping to and from easy process.
You also get within a year you can trade up and you pay the difference.
Troubleshooting and or questions are easy!
SVS' s CS is top notch IMO.

Did you get $900 and $850 for each piece or a set? My local store is selling one for $750 which is super tempting. I have an enclosed setup, but I'm not an audiophile by a longer stretch. I'm not considering a dual subwoofer set up at the moment so it's either a single SB3000 or the Monolith.
Good luck to all!
I was excited all morning, now I'm bummed and have no sub to look forward to. Wondering if anyone got in on it.

And as I said in my previous message - criticizing Monoprice is fair and your criticism is valuable - but not directed, even if unintentionally, at someone unaffiliated with Monoprice. There is a difference.
