About your SV Subwoofer
SV Subwoofers
No powered subwoofers look anything like them, and virtually none work like
them either. SV Subwoofers are decidedly different. The best part? You could
have spent much more and still not come close to the same bass performance our
Powered Cylinder line gives you. But what makes a subwoofer an SVS???
Quality components, sane prices. You might be surprised at how inexpensive
the components in some not-so-inexpensive subwoofers are. Make no mistake,
we comb the earth for the best, most cost effective parts (when we don’t make
them ourselves), melding them into finely tuned designs that define high
performance home theater (HT) bass. Want woofers, amps, or even binding
posts? We’ve tested and discarded plenty that didn’t meet our tough standards.
If we use it, whatever it is, it made the grade and met tough cost guidelines too.
Get “tubular”. Typical subs require heavy internal bracing and thick enclosure
walls because they’re boxes. But cylinders can’t flex the way boxes do. Ever
wonder why high pressure tanks are always round? At SVS form follows
function, and fortunately, functional designs can lead to simple, stylish and
elegant designs too.
Stable downward firing woofer. Our slender, upright design is one plus, but
we’ve also taken great lengths to allow for a downward firing driver. Coupled
with our unique base-plates, which minimize driver reactive forces, you’ll find
your SVS can take a tremendous amount of power and remain solidly planted on
your floor. Interchangeable foam rubber or heat-treated steel spike feet allow
for stable placement on a variety of surfaces (NOTE! spikes are not
recommended for concrete sub-floors or similarly hard non-compliant
materials).
Custom low turbulence port designs. When you listen to these low noise, 4”
flare ported subs you’ll hear (and feel) bass like never before, with amazingly
little distortion. Movies or music, SV Subwoofers handle it all with grace and
efficiency, never sounding “boomy” —– even at their limits.
Stylish, and understated. From the simple top grill, to the elegant base-plate
you’ll be amazed at how easy it is to lose your sub in a corner. They’re big, but
it’s one of those times size does matter. There are hundreds of hulking “black
box” subs out there. Fortunately you didn’t just unpack one of them.
World class power. Our amps are designed in Germany and built with a level
of fit and finish, plus a collection of features, practically unheard of at this price.
And power? It’s there in spades (though we rate them conservatively at 190
watts). SVS starts with efficient subwoofer designs which don’t require
equalization to go low and flat. This way our amps can be dedicated to
reproducing bass, not making up for a lack of enclosure space (the bane of deep
bass). As a result, we don’t require the mega-watts some subs need. And they
run cool and powerful in those vented cylinders too. We import these wunder-
amps ourselves so you don’t have to.
