Description
For your consideration is an SVS SB13-Ultra subwoofer. I've used this sub lightly in my main 2-channel system (smoke-free home) for over 5 years.

This sub is in perfect working condition with very minor swirl marks (common with piano gloss finishes) and one minor surface scratch, as can be seen in the pictures.

Price / Shipping
$1000 + actual shipping

It will ship in the original box at the buyer's expense.

Local pickup (Dallas, TX) would be preferred because this is heavy!

Thanks for your interest.

    Funny you mention that because I actually do have a pair.

    I was planning to sell the second at some point down the road, but if you're really interested in both, I could be persuaded now. Let me know!

  • Man!!!, The SB4000s are on their way, be here Wednesday. I have to give them a try after all the research I have done on them (maybe the last subs I ever will buy).

  • The SVS SB13 Ultra is an excellent subwoofer. I have owned SVS Ultra subwoofers for many years. Two 13's and a 16, both with sealed enclosures. I have also owned other SVS subs further down the line and they don't compare with the Ultra series. I hate to be critical but the smaller SVS's subwoofer are good but not great like the Ultra series. Microprocessor precise control (no twist pots to guess at the actual setting), state of the art amplification and massive drivers. However, the SB13 Ultra is outclassed by the SB16 Ultra due to infinite frequency low/high pass settings (Ultra 13 has preset frequencies you can choose from), phase, etc. settings and crazy large everything. You don't have play the SVS Ultra subs particularly loud and they don't become boomy like most other sub woofers. The SB16 Ultra isn't slow and lagging like most larger subs over 12-13". Hold out for the SVS Ultra series if you can and sealed box (SB series) for audio. "Everything is better in stereo" including subwoofers.
  • This SVS SB13 Ultra sold because it was priced fairly and had the original shipping materials. Congrats on the sale.

  • Refreshing to run across a Seller who isn't greedy and prices his item as a used item. I have lost lots of money on various items over the years and that's OK. This a hobby and we get to have the gear to enjoy until we want to move it on to another hobbiest. You always lose the shipping you paid to get the item. If I don't lose more that 10-15% on an item then I'm OK. Sometimes it just feels good to send an item on down the road. If you want to have a laugh then check me out my history on AG (adams7724) to get an idea of my audio craziness. "Everything is better in stereo".

    Looks like he's selling something on Audiogon. One thing, as far as I can tell. I guess he wants to boost traffic. There, I looked. That's one view.

    Oh, I guess he wants us to view his history there, because he's sold stuff for fair prices?? Idk, because I don't have an account, or I do and just can't remember what it is
