Comparing the direct radiating SVS Prime Elevation speakers to both ceiling bounce and in-ceiling height effects speakers, the hardened critics at top audiophile site AVS Forum concluded:
|
“The Prime Elevations sound better than any reflected-sound elevation speakers. Plus, they do it at a lower price. They also beat the sound of in-ceiling speakers. Their performance and price make them a top choice for getting the most out of Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and Auro-3D.” |
In a detailed review featuring extensive measurements and critical listening, the notoriously picky HiFi Choice Magazine gave its top award to the SVS Prime Pinnacle Tower speaker, showering it with this praise: |
“Just svelte enough to slip into all but the smallest rooms, and undemanding when it comes to placement, these floorstanders have clear all-round appeal, matched by a big, crowd-pleasing performance. Music driven by bass and percussion is their bread and butter, but there's a sweeter side that makes them more than competitive. Prime Pinnacle will have your system glowing.” |
The top audio review site in Russia, AV Report, brought in the SVS SB-4000 subwoofer for testing and discovered all the qualities of a world-class subwoofer, proclaiming: |
“Brutal, but beautiful in its own way. Deep, smooth and superbly fast bass. Potent, clear and energetic with movies and pristinely natural with music. Output from the SB-4000 is so seamlessly and inconspicuously stitched with the voices of speakers it provides a clear transfer of details and an accurate attack. A rare quality for a subwoofer.” |
