SVS unveiled the SB-4000, PB-4000, and PC-4000 4000 series subwoofers back in November. These reference quality subs replace their popular 13-Ultra series, with a level of change which is quite dramatic from the previous generation. Alterations were made to the cabinet and 13.5” driver, but the electronics received the most benefit with the introduction of a 50MHz Analog Devices Audio […]
Read moreI wasn’t surprised at all that SVS puts on a good audio demo. Naturally both the SB-4000 and Ultra 5 speaker system I got to listen to briefly sounded great. But, I was not prepared to as impressed as I was by their “coming soon” Prime Wireless DTS Play-Fi enabled speaker. The speaker works as a single, or can […]

SVS is known for making amazing subwoofers, both from a performance and value perspective. So it is great to see them launching a new line that look fantastic and promise specs to shake the floor/room/house. The three models in the 4000 Series lineup offer different form factors and range price from $1500-$2000 (check the release below for more details). Like […]

SVS’s Elevation speakers are an interesting option for building out a Dolby Atmos setup because of their unique shape. This is the first review I’ve seen, and there weren’t any major suprises (read they did well). With both Dolby Atmos & DTS:X becoming a semi-regular feature for new Blu-rays and, even more common, Ultra HD Blu-rays, it makes sense that […]

Unfortunately, architects and spouses don’t always allow for these environments to takes shape. That’s where the recently announced SVS Prime Elevation speaker comes in with an angled shape that lets […]

SVS Sound does a great job with accessories. Good looking and reasonably priced (just like the speakers :)). They have introduced a pivoting wall/ceiling mount to help you build the perfect Dolby Atmos setup using Prime Satellites for height and width channels. I didn’t see any pricing info in the PR, will update if I hear back on it. Update: […]

I’ve never contemplated a cylindrical subwoofer, actually only barely knew they existed. After reading the review of the SVS PC-2000, I think I’m going to have to do some research into the benefits of this shape versus a standard cabinet design. SVS has revamped their cylinder series of subwoofers with the new PC-2000: a 34” tall, downward firing room shaker. […]
Read moreThere is a lot of useful information included in the write-up. It’s more personal journey, than review, but either way well worth a read if you want to learn more about subwoofers in general and the SVS lineup in particular. For as many changes as I’ve made to my home theater over the past couple years, I always manage to […]

SVS is best known for subwoofers that provide outstanding value for money, but today we are going to look at, er… listen to their $1550/£1300 Prime Tower Surround home theater speaker package.
