About your SVS Subwoofer

Other subwoofers might look like them — but virtually none work like them. Not at this price. SVS’s are decidedly different, in how they are designed, produced, sold, and even in the exceptional customer service after the sale. No surprise then, you could have spent much more and still not come close to the value and performance our Powered Box lines provide. But what makes a subwoofer an SVS???

Quality parts, sane prices. You might be surprised at how inexpensive the components in most not-so-inexpensivesubwoofers might be. At SVS we scour the earth for the best, most cost effective parts (the few we don’t make ourselves), and meld them into finely tuned designs that define high performance home theater and music bass. Still, cost is always the secondary consideration at SVS. 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, you know it made the grade.

Get “cube-ular”.Many subs we’ve seen are simply poorly made. We did a host of studies that optimized the materials, the size, and even the enclosure finish to ensure a rigid design that was still compact for its performance and able to take the abuse your family and friends can dish out. Hand built like most other SVS parts, the cabinet is no ordinary box. Selling direct means your sub, and not glossy ads, gets first priority. SVS is quality you can hear.

Stable downward firing woofer. Our enclosure design is one benefit of our commitment to you, but we’ve also taken great lengths to allow for downward firing woofers. Coupled with our unique base-plates, which minimize driver reactive forces and even strengthen the cabinet itself, you’ll find our subs can take a tremendous amount of power and remain rock solid. Two kinds of 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 your trend-setting ported sub you’ll hear (and feel) bass like never before, with exceptionally low noise and distortion. Huge, patented flared port fittings and expert tuning makes the difference! One DVD or music CD and you’ll realize something special went into this product.

Stylish, and understated. From the hand-finished craftsmanship of the enclosure, to the elegant base, 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 countless brands of “wannabe” subs out there. Fortunately, you didn’t just unpack one.

World-class power. Our Canadian-built amps are manufactured with a level of fit and finish, plus a collection of features 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 subwoofer designs which don’t require significant levels of power-robbing equalization to go low and flat. So our amps can work harder at reproducing low frequencies, instead of struggling against a lack of enclosure space (the bane of clean, deep bass). As a result, we don’t require the megawatts some subs do, instead running cool and reliable in our vented enclosures. These digital hybrid amps run so cool, we can even dispense with old-fashioned “cooling fins”!
