SV Subwoofers

Welcome!

At SVS, you can actually hear the tireless research and design efforts built in to our subwoofers and speak- ers. Years are spent developing any SVS product — with work typically spanning from our Ohio headquar- ters… to US west coast technology

centers… and over to the finest component suppliers in Asia and Europe as well. Nothing in our speaker offerings is an “off the shelf” product. SVS is committed to making better sound systems with ele- gant looks, robust construction and world-class technology and materi- als. We believe you deserve nothing less.

This manual and the printed “Quick Start” sheet will help you integrate speakers and subwoofer quickly and with professional results.

Armed with only a few basic tools, such a sound pressure level (SPL) meter, and the test tones built in to most audio/video receivers (AVR), you will achieve smooth, detailed and powerful reproduction of all your favorite music and movie audio. Expect to hear things you never heard before… and expect not to hear some of the artifacts you might have accepted in the past with inferior brands.

Have a question about your surround sound system? For more information about SVS products check out our US website, or the ex- clusive dealer for your region, contact us via phone or e-mail should you have questions regarding our products.

SVS was founded by audio enthusiasts — our commitment to service is the only thing that rivals the products we create. Our resellers around the world feel the same way.
