Buenas foreros.
Dejo aquí, el nuevo y renovado nivel de entrada PB12-NSD DSP:
New SVS 12" NSD aluminum cone driver
STA-400D SVS Sledge™ DSP-controlled amp
+/-3dB 18Hz-200hz anechoic extension (typically 3-5Hz deeper in normal rooms)
4" high-flow flared ports (in and out)
The completely new redesigned PB12-NSD DSP is here – the subwoofer so many have been waiting for. It is a totally remake of the classic PB12-NSD and it takes all its advantages and improves literally on every point; smaller, better looking, metal grill, better features – and it even outguns the old PB12-NSD performance! Everything is improved.
SVS has managed to keep the deep, controlled, dynamic, tight deep bass even with the smaller cabinet than its predecessor. This is thanks to the very powerful 400W RMS STA-400 DSP Sledge amp (which is very stable even when driven hard) and the NEW highly efficient 12" NSD woofer which SVS has invested tons of money and hours into R/D. The new DSP version has a better accuracy and behavior at higher frequencies as well. Who thought that the old PB12-NSD could be better for the money?
The PB12-NSD DSP is for anyone who is looking for a serious subwoofer for their audio system – whether it being dedicated 2 channel systems or for home theaters. Budget or high cost systems.
At this low price, few competitive products can keep pace with this new PB12-NSD DSP’s accuracy, depth, linearity, or effortless dynamics. The old classic PB12-NSD was our bestseller in Europe and the new DSP version will push the limits for what money can buy in budget subwoofers. PB12-NSD DSP is the new standard in box subwoofers at this price tag – that is a guarantee with our amazing 45 days Buy & Try!
The current test winner PC12-NSD DSP is the exact equal performer to the PB12-NSD DSP, only in cylinder shape. It has been one of our most successful subwoofers and we expect no less for the PB12-NSD DSP.
Box or cylinder? You choose.
Like all SVS subwoofers, this new PB12-NSD DSP comes with lifetime technical support, a bumper to bumper 3 year warranty, and 7 day a week support.
New SVS 12" NSD Aluminum Cone Woofer
The latest SVS NSD woofer has even better overall performance than its predecessor! Features like a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) optimized motor with dual shorting rings and pole extenders bring all these improvements to the table.

Sledge™ STA-400D DSP amplifier
The new DSP amplifier in the Sledge™ amp series from SVS makes your NSD work "digitally" without sounding digital. SVS has done a terrific job in fine tuning limiters which will kick in when you are pushing your subwoofer to its maximum. This result is a noise-free bass even at maximum volume and PB12-NSD DSP will play distortion-free and dynamic. The only thing you will notice that it is in "protection mode" is its red LED back of the amp which will flash. A natural and flat response, improved durability and better control at the limits.

Dual shorting rings and pole extenders to reduce gap induction and distortion
Dual high-grade ferrite magnets
Pole piece vent for greater cooling, low noise, and reduced air compression
400 watt SVS STA-400D Sledge™ DSP-controlled amplifier
Like its higher powered Sledge™ amp brothers (the STA-800D and 1000D) this high-output unit was designed just for SVS, and is so costly you just can't expect to see it on competitive products.
Torture tested around the world SVS has gone back and invested in higher grade materials, higher power and higher precision parts. Not least of these parts are the Analog Devices DSPs, and beefed-up power supplies to handle extreme AC line-voltages from 100V too 250V and beyond.
The STA-400D DSP amp might look conventional, but those knobs are not even really "knobs" in the normal sense, they are digital actuators which precisely control gain, phase, crossover (and of course disable the latter too if you like). Naturally there is an on/auto-on toggle switch too, but now there's a full digital power supply, and "green" standby mode too. Which means your SVS is ready to be a good citizen on the power grid, unlike their less efficient predecessor amps.
And see if you can get one to get even mildly warm in use, these amps are more efficient than ever before. A clip light lets you know when you have reached the stops, but you won't hear anything untoward audibly if you do. Your PB12-NSD DSP simply stops getting louder when you push it too hard. That's the power of DSP control, with precisely metered custom tuning for each NSD model. SVS's obsession to making this and all their Sledge DSP amps as "bullet-proof" as their famous will be obvious.

Professional grade construction inside and out
The woofer and port are both front firing from the front baffle, that's common enough. But with a whopping one inch thick baffle? Call that un-common. Or how about extensive internal CNC'd bracing which allow the subwoofer to remain solid as a rock?
Under the PB12-NSD DPS and you'll find threaded, removable, ultra-compliant synthetic rubber feet. And not just four as you might expect, but six to maximize stability and allow you to put this sub on any sort of surface.
Powder-coated steel grill protects your sub's elegant looks
The precision-built steel grill adorning your exclusive woofer and adjacent port is one of the many features defying this sub's affordable price. Every radius, contour, perforation and edge is carefully designed and flawlessly executed.
Want more proof? Check out the machined steel pins for fastening the grill to your sub, instead of the typical cheap plastic fittings you often see in lesser products. Durable and attractive powder-coated finish tops off this one of a kind part from SVS.
Tuned high-flow ports provide efficient free-breathing performance
In the end good bass is all about air-flow. The PB12-NSD DSP employs a brand new computer-designed high-flow, low-noise, port made just for SVS of course. This port features a whopping 4" inside diameter opening, and gentle flare to a nearly 7" at the outside edge. While you are unlikely to ever see it, there's a flare to match inside too.
These huge fittings allow the PB12-NSD DSP to breathe with the effectiveness of much larger straight-cut ports.
Tough furniture grade finish
The finish is of thick and durable charcoal black polymer laminate, still applied by hand and inspected with meticulous care.
PB12-NSD DSP subs are built for the real world you live in. They are virtually impervious to fingerprints, drink rings and dust. Wipe them off with standard glass cleaner now and again and your SVS will look like new for years.
Frequency Response Curve
* Unsmoothed, quasi-anechoic frequency response: Measured with high resolution instrumentation (1/60th octave) via "ground plane" technique, outdoors, at two meters' distance, a minimum of 70 feet from reflective boundaries.
Note: Tuned for mid-sized rooms, providing flat powerful response with enhanced bandwidth uniformity. In-room extension, with corner placement, will typically yield 3-5Hz greater linear extension than indicated. Results will vary based on room size, seat distance from your SVS, and subwoofer location.
