About your SVS Subwoofer
There maybe be other subwoofers that look like them, but virtually none
work like them. Not at this price. SVS subwoofers are decidedly different in how they
are designed, produced, sold, and even in the exceptionally high quality components
we use. The best part? You could have spent much more and still not come close to
the performance our subwoofers provide. So, what makes a subwoofer an SVS?
Quality components, sane prices. You might be surprised at how inexpensive
the components are in some not-so-inexpensive subwoofers. At SVS, performance is
king... not shaving off a few dollars from component costs to improve profits. We
scour the earth for the most cost-effective parts (when we don’t make them ourselves),
and meld them into finely tuned designs that define high performance movie and
music bass. We’ve tested and discarded plenty of bits that didn’t meet our tough
standards. If we use it, you know “it” is satisfied some tough customers first. Us.
Get “square”. We did a host of studies to optimize materials, the size, and even the
our enclosure finishes to ensure a rigid design that’s reasonably compact, and still able
to take the abuse your family and friends can dish out. SVS cabinets are no ordinary
boxes. Selling through select dealers means your sub, and not glossy ads, get the
priority at when your product is built. Tap the side of your sub, look at those smooth
corners, flip a few switches. The quality is so obvious, you’ll know what we mean.
SVS products are different.
Stable downward firing woofer. Our contemporary enclosure designs are a halmark,
but we’ve also taken great lengths to allow for top quality, well-protected woofers.
Coupled with our unique base-plates, which minimize driver reactive forces, you’ll
find our down firing subs can take a tremendous amount of power and remain rock
solid. Compliant rubber feet allow for stable placement on a variety of surfaces. No
rattling, or buzzing allowed!
Custom low turbulence port designs. When you listen to our trend-setting
ported subs you’ll hear (and feel) bass like never before, with a exceptionally low
noise and distortion. Huge patented, flared port fittings make the difference. You’ll
quickly realize something special went into your new sub the second you fire it up.
Stylish, and understated. From the fine, durable finish, to the attractive color-
contrasting components, you’ll be amazed at how easy it is to lose your sub in a
corner. SVS’s aren’t tiny, but this is one of those times size does matter. There are
many brands of boring “black box” subs. Fortunately, you didn’t just unpack one.
World class power. Our Canadian-built amps are designed and manufactured with
a level of quality and power practically unheard of at this price. Did we mention
power? It’s there in spades (though we rate them conservatively). And SVS starts
with efficient designs which don’t require significant levels of power robbing
equalization to go low and flat. This way, our amps can be dedicated to reproducing
low frequencies, not making up for a lack of enclosure space (the bane of clean, deep
bass). As a result, we don’t require the megawatts some subs do.
