  • Prime Pinnacle Receives HomeTheaterReview's "Best of 2019" Award

    "Equally at ease with music as well as movie soundtracks, the SVS Prime Pinnacles are winning over fans and fast, and that includes Greg Handy, who said in this review: "If you are in the market for a new pair of speakers, and you simply do not have the placement flexibility required to get the most out of so many other speakers, I highly suggest taking SVS up on their 45-day, risk-free audition offer. Be warned, however, that I suspect 99 percent of you who do so won't be sending them back."

  • HomeTheaterReview Reviews the Prime Wireless Speaker System

    “Deliciously balanced tonality and wonderfully wide dispersion. The utter clarity of their delivery really allows you to dive into the briar patch and sort out the tangle of musical notes…These masochistic little minxes take a full-force whipping and beg for more. I've heard many a full-sized tower speaker setup that didn't boast nearly this level of dynamic ferocity. You'll struggle to find another wireless speaker system that delivers this level of dynamic, tonally balanced, nuanced, and detailed performance while also boasting the level of connectivity. A standout in the burgeoning wireless speaker system marketplace.”

  • SB-2000 Subwoofer Review by HomeTheaterReview

    “The SB-2000 provided plenty of power while cleanly extending the lower registers smoothly and accurately. Provided all the impact and low frequency punch even the most action-packed movie might demand. For this price and at this size I really could not find a better subwoofer. It's fast, it's clean, and it's powerful. If the SVS SB-2000 fits your budget, look no further. It's in a class of its own as far as sealed subwoofers go.”

  • PB-4000 Subwoofer Review by Home Theater Review

    "A sub with brute force that also performs so nimbly and even gently when the source material calls for it. I found myself so viscerally impressed by the PB-4000’s low-frequency output that I kept cranking up the volume to see which of us (me or the sub) would cry uncle first. In the end, I lost. SVS has another undeniable winner on its hands here—one that outperforms its predecessor while delivering improved aesthetics at a cheaper sticker price. I could not give it a heartier recommendation."

  • HomeTheaterReview.com Reviews the SB16-Ultra Subwoofer

    "I've heard almost all of the top subwoofers currently on the market. The SB16-Ultra sounds like none of them. It's almost in a whole different category of low-frequency sound. May well be the best subwoofer ever made."

  • HomeTheaterReview.com Reviews the Prime Elevation

    "SVS has another winner on its hands with the Prime Elevation speaker, and kudos to the company for thinking outside the box to consider the needs of those who don’t have the perfect listening space. This little guy can wear many hats…and wear them well."

  • The Ultra Tower Receives HomeTheaterReview.com's Best of 2013 Award

    "Glossy, gorgeous, and powerful only begin to describe these Internet-direct speakers. With SVS's 45-day in-home trial option, those who are shopping in the $2,000-per-pair market owe it to themselves to give these towers a try."

  • The SB13-Ultra Subwoofer Receives HomeTheaterReview.com's Best of 2013 Award

    "Dollar for dollar, the SVS SB13-Ultra is one of the best (if not THE best) subwoofers on the market. Powerful, deep bass. Equally adept performance for music and moves. The only way to make it much better is to buy two."

  • HomeTheaterReview.com - Sean Killebrew Reviews the Ultra Bookshelf

    "The strongest statement I can make about the SVS Ultra Bookshelf speakers is that, about midway through critical listening, I started scheming for a way to buy them. Yes, they're that good"

  • HomeTheaterReview.com Reviews the Ultra Bookshelf

    "Cutting right to the chase, the Ultra Bookshelf speaker from SVS is a phenomenal achievement and arguably my favorite of the new Ultra series. The build quality is beyond reproach, as is SVS' commitment to its customers. The Ultra Bookshelf's sound is one of incredible musicality, possessing enough of the stuff audiophiles crave, but at a more Everyman price. I even found that, in certain situations, a subwoofer (SVS offers many) may not be necessary, making the Ultra Bookshelf far more versatile than most smaller two-way bookshelf speakers. While it's not perfect nor without competition, the Ultra Bookshelf should be on your must-audition list if you're in the market for a solid pair of affordable bookshelf loudspeakers."

  • HomeTheaterReview.com Reviews the SB13-Ultra Subwoofer

    "I found the bass to be authoritative, while at the same time complimentary to the mids and highs. From the bass guitar to the djembes and piano, every low-frequency element was well fleshed out and engaging… With a sub of this caliber, you'll surely make enemies of your neighbors, but you'll have so much fun doing so that it's totally worth it. The bottom line is that the SVS SB13-Ultra is a meaningful audio component that's worth every penny of its $1,599 asking price.I found the bass to be authoritative, while at the same time complimentary to the mids and highs.

  • HomeTheaterReview.com Reviews the Prime Satellite 5.1 Surround System

    "SVS has redefined value for the satellite speaker category by packing an astonishing amount of sound quality into a very small speaker cabinet, at an extremely aggressive price. The SVS Prime Satellite 5.1 home theater system is the best satellite speaker surround sound system I know for under $1,000. Congratulations, SVS. The old king is dead, long live the new king."
