SVS has stepped back the specs a little... Their CEDIA launch was a soft launch and I think a couple of wires were inadvertantly crossed. :T. So, we're going to run with 12Hz for the ported cabinet (assuming all ports open) and 15Hz for the Sealed.

Still, that's some nice hefty output, and I'm going to assume that means there's solid output right down to the threshold of human hearing.

Pretty amazing they've managed to keep the cabinet size the same. The PB16 is very manageable when it comes to size!
