I'm finally investing in my system after years of running a popular brand (Bose). And all I can say is that this this SUB is amazing. It's a great compliment to my KEF LS50's. Music and movies sound fantastic and just can't say enough about how pleased I am with the SB-3000.

Realistic bass with fast response; Movies hit you in the chest; plenty powerful even in a fairly large room; The app is a great plus

none that I can think of

Connected this little beast to my AV Receiver and blew some pictures off the wall !!!!! Love it.

After much research and reading a great deal about bass acoustics and subwoofer performance, I settled on the SB-3000. (My 5.1.2 system consists of a Yamaha Aventage RX-A2060 AVR, Klipsch RP-280 front towers, Klipsch RP-250C, Klipsch R-10SW Sub, and Klipsch RP surrounds and height speakers.

This is one of the best performing subs available and the value is outstanding. Unlike older / less well designed subs that detract from the listening experience this adds solid low frequency octaves without distraction.
