Available with Professional installation in NY, NJ, and CT – Powered by Sound Waves .
Airy, unveiled highs with crisp dynamics and convincing bass, the Prime Tower speaker brings high-end audio to more people than ever. Unique SoundMatch 3.5-Way Crossover is optimized for largest sweet spot possible with pinpoint imaging.
The Prime Tower speakers set the bar for sound quality and high-end appeal among tower speakers anywhere near the price. The reference-grade SVS floorstanding speaker is amazingly transparent, with a broad, stable soundstage and sharp imaging of voices and instruments, all punctuated by deep yet accurate low frequency extension.
Reference Tower Speaker Performance
Challenge the SVS Prime Tower Speakers with any dynamically charged music or movie soundtrack and it reveals new layers of sound and detail you never knew existed.
With engineering and design cues taken from the acclaimed SVS Ultra Series speakers, the Prime Tower is a sonic achievement that stands up to the best speakers in the world.
Every aspect of the Prime Tower speakers was designed for sonic excellence. From the premium grade drivers and sophisticated SoundMatch crossover to the extra-thick baffle, internal bracing, and FEA optimized tweeter diffuser, the Prime Tower speaker’s design and engineering credentials place it among the best tower speakers available in its class.
Prime Driver & Tweeter Design
Thoughtfully designed for acoustic excellence, the 4.5-inch midrange driver is mounted in its own dedicated and completely sealed compartment to ensure a smooth, precise and clear midrange free from coloration. The cone material is extremely light and rigid and maintains a flat frequency response with excellent handling across the foundational mid-range frequencies.
Dual 6.5-inch woofers deliver effortlessly deep and articulate bass to set the mood and punctuate the low-end impact of instruments, basslines and movie sound effects. Each woofer has a separate internal compartment in the cabinet with its own custom port tuning frequency. The result is deep, powerful and accurate bass you hear and more importantly, feel.
The Prime Tower speaker’s 1-inch aluminum dome tweeter is light, efficient, and rigid, and plays crystal clear at high volumes. The clarity offers a sense of utter transparency, while offering an airy presentation and incredibly unveiled highs so female vocals and dialogue always sound crisp and smooth.
Innovative SoundMatch Crossover Design
Since premium drivers require an equally capable crossover, no expense was spared with the innovative SVS SoundMatch 3.5-way crossover. Its tapered array is designed so each woofer has its own discrete crossover to minimize the potential for beaming.
This creates an expansive, yet focused and precise soundstage, with accurate frequency response at all listening positions in the room. The precise tuning of the SoundMatch Crossover also ensures pinpoint accuracy from sparkling highs down to palpable lows, while maintaining pristine signal purity.
Performance Driven Cabinet Design and Geometry
Tapered edges on the Prime Tower speaker’s front baffle, known as chamfers, minimize edge diffraction for clear and precise soundstaging.
The cabinet’s presence is substantial but it does not take over a room visually and offers a modern industrial feel with acoustic enhancements like shorting rings and a tweeter diffuser.
All of these advancements are packed into a sleek but commanding floor standing speaker cabinet available in stunning piano gloss black or premium black ash finish.
