About your SV 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, supported … and 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 or speakers
provide. So, 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. At SVS,
performance is our primary focus ... not shaving off a few dollars from material
costs. We scour the earth for the best, most cost-effective parts (when we don’t
make them ourselves), and meld them into finely tuned designs that define high
performance home theater 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, size, bracing and
finishes to ensure a rigid design which is still compact and able to take the abuse
your family and friends can dish out. SVS cabinets are no ordinary boxes.
Selling direct, or through select dealers means your sub itself (not expensive ads),
gets top priority at SVS. Tap the side of your sub. Look at those smooth edges,
flush components, heck, even the sub’s feet. You’ll know what we mean.
Custom low turbulence port designs. When you listen to our trend-setting
ported subs you’ll hear (and feel) bass like never before, with 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.
Big can be beautiful! From the fine, durable enclosure finish, to the attractive
color-contrasting components, you’ll be amazed at how easy it is to lose your sub
in a corner. SVS subwoofers aren’t tiny, but this is one of those times size does
matter. There are many brands of small, boring “black box” subs out there.
Fortunately, you didn’t just unpack one.
World class power. Our North American built amps are designed and
manufactured with a level of fit and finish, and power, practically unheard of at
this price. Did we mention power? It’s there in spades (though we rate amps
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). So we don’t require the
megawatts some subs do. We sweat the details on integrating a top of the line
amp in your sub, so you don’t have to.
