About your SV Subwoofer
No powered subwoofers look anything like them. And virtually none work like them either. SV Subwoofers are decidedly different. The best part? You could have spent much more and still not come close to the same bass performance our PC-Ultra line gives you. But what makes a subwoofer an SVS?
Quality components, sane prices. You might be surprised at how inexpensive the components in some not-so-inexpensivesubwoofers are. Make no mistake, we search the world 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. 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. We’re proud of the fact nearly all components for your SVS come right from North America.
Get “tubular”. Typical subs require heavy internal bracing and thick enclosure walls because they’re boxes. But cylinders can’t flex the way boxes do. Ever wonder why high pressure tanks are always round? At SVS form follows function, and fortunately, functional designs can lead to simple, stylish and elegant designs too. Take one look at our subs and you’ll know this is true.
Stable downward firing woofer. Our slender design is one plus, but we’ve also taken great lengths to design a downward firing driver. Coupled with our unique base-plates, which minimize driver reactive forces, you’ll find our subs can take a tremendous amount of power and remain rock solid. Compliant foam rubber feet on our innovative base plates allow for stable placement on a variety of surfaces. No rattling, or buzzing allowed!
Custom low turbulence, tri-port design. 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. When you experience genuine SVS bass you’ll know something special went into it. Want deeper performance? Use the included “port plug” and associated subsonic filter to dip a full 5Hz lower in your sub’s “tune”, in just a matter of seconds.
Stylish, and understated. From the simple top grill, to the elegant base-plate, you’ll be amazed at how easy it is to lose your sub in a corner. SVS’s are big, but this is one of those times size does matter. There are hundreds of brands of “black box” subs out there. Fortunately, you didn’t just unpack one.
World class power. Our North American-built amps are spec’d to a level of fit and finish, plus a collection of features and power, practically unheard of at this price. And SVS starts with efficient subwoofer designs which don’t require equalization to go low and flat. This way our amps can be dedicated to reproducing bass, 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, 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”!
