SVS Ultra Evolution Tower: 3-Way Floorstanding Speaker for Hi-Fi and Home Cinema

The SVS Ultra Evolution Tower is a passive 3-way bass-reflex floorstanding speaker, developed for precise music reproduction and dynamic film sound in the living room.

Acoustically Centered Driver Array for a Cohesive Soundstage

The mid-range and woofers are arranged rotationally symmetrically around the tweeter. This ensures that low, mid, and high frequencies emanate from the same effective point in space.

Time-Aligned Cabinet Design for Precise Imaging

The cabinet geometry is time-aligned and works with microsecond delays between the drivers. This aligns the acoustic center of the individual drivers with the listening position.

This supports a clean stereo stage, better directionality in the crossover region, and a more natural spatial representation.

Force-Balanced Array for Deep and Controlled Bass

The Force-Balanced Array technology used features four 5.25-inch woofers in an opposing, force-canceling arrangement. The drivers move air for bass, while their mechanical forces within the cabinet act against each other.

This design reduces vibrations that could otherwise be transmitted to the cabinet, baffle, and other components. The speaker thus remains quieter, which is particularly important at low frequencies and higher volumes.

3-Way Bass-Reflex Principle with Rear-Firing Ports

The SVS Ultra Evolution Tower utilizes two rear-firing 2.5-inch bass-reflex ports. The bass-reflex principle extends the low-frequency range and supports reproduction down to 30 Hz. Therefore, some distance from the rear wall is advisable for placement to allow the bass to perform optimally.

Diamond Coated Tweeter for Clear Highs

The 1-inch tweeter features an aluminum dome with a diamond-carbon coating. This construction is designed for high rigidity, linearity, and fast transient response.

The FEA-optimized Organic Cell Lattice Diffuser supports airy high-frequency reproduction and clear representation of fine details.

Composite Glass Fiber Drivers for Dynamics and Stability

The two 4.5-inch mid-range drivers and the four 5.25-inch woofers use composite glass fiber diaphragms.

Clean High-Frequency Dispersion through Baffle Design

The chamfered front baffle and flush-mounted drivers reduce edge diffraction. This improves on-axis and off-axis high-frequency response. This is particularly relevant if not every listening position is exactly centered in front of the speakers.

Flexible Connections for Conventional Wiring, Bi-Wiring, and Bi-Amping

The gold-plated 5-way binding post terminal is designed for bi-wiring and bi-amping. This allows the SVS Ultra Evolution Tower to be easily operated on a single amplifier channel or driven separately via two amplifier channels.
