Welcome.

From the entire SVS team, congratulations on your pur- chase of the standard in home theater and music bass!

Your new subwoofer isn’t some generic, mass-produced box built someplace you can’t even find on a map. It’s made in Ohio (USA), by home audio enthusiasts... like you. Designed, tested and assem- bled by hand, while using state of the art automation and materials, your SVS is without a doubt one of the best investments you’ll ever make in bringing music and theater home.

What’s more, we’ll help you to set up your sub right, and in no time, you’ll be giving “demos” of your favorite music, DVDs or digital music to all your friends and neighbors (we pity them if you live in an apartment…please, be kind!). This isn’t just a “subwoofer” after all, it’s a carefully designed audio component carefully tuned in our labs, by bass authority and “Sub-human”, Tom Vodhanel.

You’re unlikely to have heard, or felt, bass like this before, unless it was in a top-notch commercial movie theater or high-end (high cost) audio boutique. Movies and music in your home will never be quite the same again. That’s a promise.

Already have a question about your sub? You might answer it by reading this manual; we think you’ll find it more informative than most. For even more detailed discussion about set-up topics check out our FAQs page at www.svsubwoofers.com. We touch on all the key points you need to know, and then some.

Maybe you just want to share a bit of bass news? Or perhaps you have a story about your SV Subwoofer to share with us? Maybe something we missed in our website? No matter, feel free to send a note straight to me: rons@svsubwoofers.com .

It’s not often you can talk to the guys who made your audio compo- nents. In this case, we look forward to it.
