The proprietary SVS drivers utilize the finest materials and design features to ensure the highest sound quality and performance. The Prime Bookshelf driver array features a 1 aluminum dome tweeter and a 6.5" woofer.

Light efficient and rigid providing high SPL (Sound Pressure Level) with minimal distortion and the sense of utter transparency 1" aluminum dome tweeter deploys a Finite-Element-Analysis (FEA) optimized diffuser to ensure it only has the perfect on-axis and off-axis frequency response. That way everyone in your listening room gets the best performance. Likewise since these design traits are also found in the SVS Prime and Ultra speakers both product lines can blend well with one another while offering that SVS hallmark airy presentation and incredibly unveiled highs.

SVS built their groundbreaking new 6.5 bass woofer on an all-new cast ABS-fiberglass composite basket for precise component alignment and an inert frame without resonances or added harmonics. Like all of the other drivers in the Prime family the polypropylene cone is light and rigid to give a flat frequency response and the SPL necessary to keep up with the other drivers. Like all of the other woofers in the Prime and Ultra series the 6.5 woofer uses aluminum shorting rings for reduced distortion and a vented voice coil former to keep the motor assembly cool during high SPL playback. For perfect bass extension the cabinet is rear ported and tuned perfectly for the 6.5 woofer.

SVS's exclusive SoundMatch crossover sports premium-grade capacitors air-core inductors and heavy-trace printed circuit boards. All these high-quality components yield lower distortion tighter tolerances better heat dissipation and all around better sound. The 2-way crossover is uniquely tuned so each driver can blend perfectly with each other while offering the best on and off-axis response while maintaining phase coherency and razor-sharp time domain behavior.
