Audiophile Refinement. Breathtaking Home Theater Dynamics.

Design innovations in the Prime Pinnacle speaker harness qualities both discerning audiophiles and home theater fans will delight over. All-new driver array is optimized for massive dynamics and incredibly refined output while the cost-no-object cabinet design and materials, sophisticated components and inspired acoustic engineering combine for a floorstanding speaker that stands alone at its price and well beyond.

Prime Pinnacle Midrange

All-New 5.25" Midrange Driver with Composite Glass-Fiber Cone

Delivers pinpoint accuracy and broad soundstage for more immersive audio experiences. The majority of audio content in music and movies is present in the midrange frequencies so it’s imperative to have a driver capable of producing slam and impact as well as subtle details with tonal accuracy. Prime Pinnacle’s midrange borrows design elements from the reference Ultra Series to deliver uncompromised audio performance at all drive levels.

Premium 1” Aluminum Dome Tweeter

Renders crystal clear highs with lifelike realism even at reference volume. Light, efficient and impervious to distortion, the tweeter’s airy’ presentation effortlessly reveals every sonic detail with pristine clarity and unerring accuracy. The FEA-optimized diffuser ensures broad dispersion for a wide and convincing soundstage with pinpoint on- and off-axis frequency response so everyone in your room is treated with the same amazing audio experience.

Prime Pinnacle Tweeter
Prime Pinnacle Subwoofer

Trio of 6.5” High-Performance Woofers

Effortless low frequency output and impressive deep bass extension from three 6.5” woofers lays the sonic foundation for all audio content. Engineered to convey the full thrill and excitement of cinematic blockbusters yet refined enough to handle the pluck of a bass guitar string and subtlest musical details with convincing realism, Prime Pinnacle delivers an amazing full-range listening experience with all audio content. By using three smaller woofers, each with its own 2-inch port, the new floorstanding speaker effortlessly conveys low frequency output while maintaining a slim profile that fits in any room or system.

Three Unique Port Tuning Frequencies

Individual tuning frequencies and separate sub-enclosures for the trio of woofers epitomizes the no compromise design approach taken with Prime Pinnacle. This design ensures all drivers blend seamlessly together so you get silky-smooth transitions from the midrange driver to the woofers as well as accurate frequency response, amazing refinement and crisp speed in transients; all without sacrificing deep, room-energizing bass.

Ultra Tower Crossover

SVS Ultra Tower Crossover

SVS SoundMatch 3-Way Crossover

Creates an expansive soundstage with accurate frequency response and precise imaging for largest “sweet spot” possible. The 3-way crossover is uniquely tuned so each driver, from tweeter to midrange and midrange to woofers, blend seamlessly with each other while offering excellent on and off-axis frequency response and pinpoint spatial imaging for the most convincing audio experience possible. The crossover’s topology and architecture are consistent with all SVS speakers so Prime Pinnacle is timbre matched to integrate with any speaker from the acclaimed Prime or Ultra Series for the ultimate flexibility when building a system.

Sonically Inert and Rigidly Braced Cabinet

Four self-contained, acoustically tuned internal chambers eliminate any potential for resonances or sonic artifacts from the enclosure, resulting in pristine audio playback across the frequency spectrum. Tapered edges on the Prime Pinnacle speaker’s front baffle, known as chamfers, minimize edge diffraction for a clear and precise soundstage while features like shorting rings and tweeter diffusers provide acoustic enhancements with modern, high-end visual appeal.

Lifestyle-Friendly Footprint

Fits seamlessly in any room layout or décor. Slim enough to place next to furniture or near a wall, yet spacious enough to produce effortless output and reference sound quality, Prime Pinnacle delivers jaw-dropping performances in stereo and home theater systems from a classically handsome tower speaker design.

    New Sounds and New Discoveries

    Just recently purchased a pair of Prime Pinnacles and a Prime Center to upgrade the HT. Adding these speakers to my existing SVS SB3000 and Marantz SR5012, I also added a Monolith 3x200 external amp to push the Pinnacles. The Pinnacles replaced a pair of Klipsch RP-280F towers. With the new equipment, the difference is amazing. The Pinnacles are definitely more relaxed at the top end, compared to the Klipsch, but still provide a crisp sound. As the Pinnacles are not an efficient speaker, I'd glad to have the Monolith amp to push them - when you do push them a bit, they come alive and the imaging is wonderful, allowing me to hear some new bit and pieces, giving my insight not music I've been listening to for years. When cranked up, the Monolith pumps more than adequate power and makes these speakers just rock ! Tremendously detailed, clear and clean - and loud. A nice mix of low end from the woofers, adequate mid-range and of course, the PB3000 adds a nice compliment to the Pinnacles. The Prime Center is wonderful - brings out clear and concise dialogue. It's only been a week since set-up and still have not yet experiences any movies, but that's coming soon. The styles of music I listen to most (Steely Dan, Yes, Genesis, Hair Bands, Tool, Doors, The Tea Party and the like) all sound so sweet, and as needed -powerful - with the combination of these SVS, Marantz and Monolith products.

    Simply Awesome

    I love SVS! This speaker is so clean and detailed and has great highs and lows. It's a great speaker to be the core of your system or just simply the front left and right of a surround system. Even though I have a 7.2.4 system, I sometimes like to listen strictly 2.0 and these will do everything I want and more.

    Awesome!!

    Retired and moved to Florida... sold previous vintage stereo system before moving to build another. I am a huge Bose 601 Series II fanatic as the sound was always amazing and hard to replicate. Hard to find anymore to rebuild so I started doing research on floor standing speakers and found SVS being highly rated and recommended.... I was not disappointed!

    They are absolutely amazing speakers using both a vintage stereo system and their Prime Wireless Pro Soundbase for wireless laptop Pandora. The piano cabinets are flawless, beautiful pieces of furniture. Outstanding quality!!

    Best Ever

    These have to be the best sounding speakers I have ever heard. They are just totally awesome. I couldn't save the boxes for an upgrade later because they were too damaged. The cardboard was ripped and even the styrofoam on the inside was broke up. Luckly there was no damage on the speakers, so I hope to enjoy them for years to come. Thanks SVS
