Prime Speakers: Extreme Performance And Uncompromised Fidelity
Prime Satellite - Satellites Redefined: High-end Audio Gets Small
From the moment you feel the weight of the Prime Satellite Speaker, it becomes clear that no satellite speaker has ever offered this level of audiophile design, high-end components and precise build quality. Jets thunder through the sky. Bullets graze your ears. Prime Satellites simply outclass the tiny surround speakers designed to be more form than performer. Prime Satellites revolutionize surround speakers—in fact, they employ many of the same components as their bigger brothers in the Prime and Ultra lines.
Strategically placed, Prime Satellites when used as surround sound speakers create awe-inspiring realism and seamless sonic transitions from front- to-back and side-to-side. When the lights dim and the score fades in, they flood your room with dynamic audio realism and action. Painstakingly voiced and sonically matched, Prime Satellites are designed to blend with SVS towers, bookshelves, or in any surround sound speaker system all their own for endless listening possibilities.

SB-1000 Subwoofer: Impressive Deep, Clean SVS-bass In An Inconspicuous 13" Cabinet
Like a stick of dynamite, the SB-1000 is easy to conceal—but its impact hard to ignore. It’s the most SVS-bass that can be condensed into a 13” package. Pumping out loads of fast, clean, bottom end—action-scene punches hit you right in the gut. When it’s time to party, your music comes to life—bass lines are tight and drum beats never muddy. Elegantly finished in premium black ash, gloss piano black or gloss piano white, it fits with any décor. And yet, it’s small enough to tuck in a corner, if you need to keep it out of the way. To maximize the slam and impact of your home theater—with a minimal footprint—two SB-1000s can be paired—one on either side of your room. (Special discount available.) For big movie and music enjoyment, in a small package, go with the SB-1000. Learn More

"The Prime Satellite 5.1 is a surround powerhouse. Obtuse, blunt, and enveloping where it counts. The Prime Satellites perform well above their own weight, almost like an acoustic sucker punch. The SB-1000 has a looming presence thanks to a seemingly limitless low-end that’s rich in detail. Editors Choice."
