Prime Tower Speakers - Pair (Premium Black Ash)

I'm almost upset with myself a little bit after purchasing these, because I now realize how much earlier in life I should have prioritized purchasing good stereo equipment. I never realized how much music was in the music I listened to until now.One of the problems we run into in the current state of retail stores is that the listening room for equipment either no longer exists, or the options are limited to big box brands only like Polk, Klipsch, Bose, Pioneer, Sony, etc. At least this is the way it was for me. I would have had to spend a month waiting on local music stores to find demo pairs of what I wanted to hear.It seems like the barrier for entry with speakers now is more based in research and not money that can be spent, as I couldn't have even discovered brands like HSU, SVS, and Bic without spending a week or two poking around audiophile circles on the internet.When it came down to it, I was torn between Bic, HSU, Chane, and SVS. When I started googling around for people complaining about SVS speakers, I just couldn't find any rage from the internet. People speak highly of the quality for the cost, and very highly of the customer support staff.I don't exactly have the best trained ear for an audiophile review, so take this with a grain of salt, but I can't find any problems with these speakers. I currently have the SB-2000 sub on order, which should arrive today, but the rest of the setup is a Modi-2 DAC to a Behringer A500 amp feeding two of these Prime towers; I'll probably pick up a preamp soon for the single volume switch. The bass produced by the towers themselves is formidable, however not enough to forgo a dedicated sub in a larger room. The highs are nice and mellow, as even the music I was scared to listen to (for the life of my ears) came through high and clear.Right now these are packed into my tiny apartment as we wait out the two months until we can move into our house; This speaker and amp combination would easily get the police called if I put the amp anywhere past 50% volume.If you have $1,000 to spend on a pair of speakers, this should be in your top 3 choices, if not just outright what you should buy.

I have only been listening to the Prime Tower speakers for a few days and I must say I am stunned! I did expect a decent level of sonic performance but I did not expect what I heard. So far I have been listening to piano, strings and vocals along with the requisite orchestral pieces. I am using an Oppo 203 transport as the source for both SACDs and CDs along with the Yamaha A-S801 integrated amp. The speakers are operating in my 12’ x 22’ audio room. So far I believe these speakers represent a fantastic value. On all material so far they disappear into the room and imaging, sound stage, and detail are superb! Get a pair!

For the money absolutely the best speakers I have owned. I use these for stereo audio recordings... I play vinyl records, CDs, and live streaming from my laptop through a Parasound 2.1 Integrated amp. I live in an apartment so I can't turn the volume too high.. the response from these speakers is remarkable. I can not believe the bass response I get even at moderate volumes. I have a pair of Klipsch Heresey speakers that I love but have to drive them much harder to get the same balanced top to bottom response and that is just to loud for my situation. I'm not saying these SVS Prime speakers are better than the Klipsch, or the Polk or the Martin Logans I have but they are the best at the volumes I must live with in my current quarters.. Also these SVS Primes are very compact in size which makes them very appealing in a smaller setting. I've read that at high volumes these can distort in the higher frequency range... I've not experienced that personally but it is something to keep in mind if you plan on really loud volumes. I have tried many speakers and I've liked them all but none outperform these SVS speakers at modest volumes.

These tower speakers are the perfect size for my apartment. They are being driven by a denon receiver and have plenty of bass for my small living area. Much better than the “5.1.2” soundbar I had before.

I cannot say enough good things about these speakers. I auditioned many speakers, and could not find better sounding units for the money. Are there better sounding speakers? Absolutely there are. But you have to spend at least double to beat them. If you are looking for audiophile sound quality without breaking the bank these are your speaker.The highs are bright and crisp without much coloration and no harshness. They play incredibly deep, and hit harder than you can imagine. The bass is controlled, punchy, and full but never gets boomy. They reproduce sound faithfully and are fairly efficient. That last bit are their biggest downfall. They are so faithful that they make poor sources sound poor. It truly is garbage in garbage out. A lot of speakers color the sound with resonances. These do not (which is good). If you bring someone over to show off, make sure you use a high quality source (Blu-ray, CD, high bitrate audio).You will not be disappointed!

Great sounding for its size. Really complements my SVS tower speakers for immersive surround sound.

Got a pair for a good price. Love the sound

The speaker it self looks nice but the sound quality was not there they where to harsh on the high and not bass my amplifier is a Yamaha A-S701 so it throws plenty of power

Después de hacer una búsqueda muy meticulosa, después de haber escuchado las mejores marcas como monitor audio, Polk, focal, revel, etc, me decidí comprar una bocina que no escuche, simplemente analice a través de las opiniones y reviews en todo internet. Y después de probar estas hermosuras de bocinas, estoy más que satisfecho por la compra. Son en verdad, piezas diría yo de Entrada al Hi-End, ya que son bocinas de 3.5 canales con una calidad simplemente extraordinaria. La calidad de TODO el rango dinamico es realmente sorprendente. Es decir, los bajos son profundos, limpios y claros, los medios son claramente separados de los bajos y altos, y lo más importante es este tipo de bocinas "frontales" es la calidad de los agudos, es decir, la cálida del sonido en las frecuencias altas son las que definen el precio de una bocina. Y estás bocinas son simplemente de calidad premium como lo dice su nombre. El tamaño no expresa su calidad de sonido, ya que en realidad son pequeñas más no la calidad del sonido que reproducen. Yo tengo un subwoofer Polk junto con in sistema 7.2 configurado en Dolby atmós 5.2.2 y las tengo cruzadas a 80 hertz, dejando el trabajo de bajo al subwoofer, pues siempre lo he dicho. Si quieres que una bocina te de el máximo, utilízala como debe de ser, para bajeo, usa un subwoofer y para medios y altos usa lo correcto. Tengo como frontales estas SVS prime que son una maravilla para frecuencias medias y altas y para surround tengo nada más ni da menos que un par de monitor audio Bronze 2 que son una joya de bocinas. En conjunto, está SVS prime son el complemento perfecto para hacer que mi sistema de 5mil dólares suene como uno hi-end de 50 mil dólares. Saludos

I don’t think one can do much better for the price of these. You can run these without a sub (I have one) and haven’t added it back into my system.I’m not a big bass freak.

LAS COMPRE YA QUE BUSCABA UNAS BOCINAS QUE ME DIERAN UN BUEN SONIDO DEFINIDO POTENTE, CON BUENA AMPLITUD Y BUENA REPRODUCCION DE BAJOS Y ENCONTRE LO QUE BUSCABA, REMPLAZAN MIS KEF LS50 QUE TUVE QUE VENDER DEBIDO A QUE LES FALTABA SONIDOS GRAVES, LAS BOCINAS ADEMAS SON MUY EFICIENTES PUEDES MOVERLAS CON UN AMPLIFICADOR CHICO SIN PROBLEMA ACTUALMENTE LAS MUEVO CON UN YAMAHA NR 602 Y UN ONKYO TX8270 Y EL SONIDO ES MUY BUENO, VALEN LO QUE CUESTAN
