SVS Prime Elevation Home Theater Speaker Overview

SVS President Gary Yacoubian discusses how the SVS Prime Elevation speaker became the world's most versatile high performance home theater speaker.
Immersive audio formats such as Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and Auro-3D are pushing the boundaries of home theater and music beyond a single plane of surround sound into the realm of height effects, where sound emanates from speakers above and all around. Learn about height effects speakers and why the Prime Elevation's direct radiating approach offers superior sonic impact and immersion compared to the ceiling bounce technique deployed by other Dolby Atmos height speakers.
You'll also understand all the ways SVS Prime Elevation can be used in a home theater surround sound system, including as a center channel, L/R mains, side or rear surround or LCR speaker and how the Multi-Angle Wall Bracket makes mounting on the wall or ceiling, simple and quick.

Just bought the SVS PB 2000. The entire buying experience was stellar to say least! Amazing customer service reps who are not only responsive but never try to sell you on anything, just honest and straightforward answers to your questions. The PB 2000 is a beast. Love the sub and planning to replace my Definitive Technology Pro Cinema 600 with the Prime Elevation speakers. One thing I don’t like and hope SVS changes, is the higher price for the piano black and White speakers. I shouldn’t have to pay $50 more for the same speakers in a different finish! Thanks guys! I am a customer for life

[@SVS_Sound]

Hi Omar - Thanks for the comment, really appreciate the props on the PB-2000 and our customer service. As far as the gloss, it's a process that involves hand-applying multiple layers of premium gloss over the course of multiple days so its adds material costs and manufacturing time. We'd love to keep them the same price as the wood grain finishes but it's not feasible given the time and effort that goes into working with high end gloss. -Nick

[@hifijohnny]

I agree with most of what you said, with the exception that speakers that bounce weaken your overall surround sound speaker system. I have an historic home and wasn't comfortable sawing holes in an plaster ceiling. I picked up Martin Logan's Height speaker. After audyssey set up I was a tad disappointed, that is, until I manually dialed my front and rear height effect speakers to a level that was much higher than what the Audyssey called for. My Atmos and especially DTS X content sounds amazing with those Martin Logans. Now, Had SVS introduced this speaker about a year ago, I'd be using two pair of them right now because I happen to think they're really a great idea and are a great value to any consumer at any budget. Great job guys and we appreciate it. when the day comes to look at new or more speakers to add to our home cinema, our first stop will be SVS,

[@SVS_Sound]

Thanks for sharing your experience, the ceiling bounce can work in certain situations, we just found it to be unpredictable, but good to know you got it dialed in. With the Prime Elevation, we wanted to design a height effects speaker with versatile placement options that sounded great installed anywhere to avoid the unpredictability.

[@dmiller9786]

IMO these SVS speakers would be a lot uglier in any main floor home application compared to in-ceiling speakers. Despite what SVS says, the ideal home atmos setup is in-ceiling for the height channels. I'm sure these are great sounding speakers for surround channels, but there are many good choices for on-wall and freestanding that don't have the unnecessary and distracting slant. For example, the two Emotiva surround speaker types solve real world problems (depth of unit and tweeter too close to listing position) that these SVS units don't address.

[@lawrence09151]

The ceiling bounce had no effect for me. I heard the sound coming out of the 140SA DA module topper and returned them. Nothing elevated just sound coming out of a speaker on top of my speaker, very localized. Really Bad experience.

But these look and appear that they will take sound and dolby atmos to a whole different level. I have an Onkyo mid level Dolby atmos, dual base subwoofers, 7 channel system. I can't wait to use these for dolby atmos. Again thanks for the break down of this superb looking speaker system.

[@SVS_Sound]

Thanks! We'd love to know what you think after getting hooked up.

[@1wired4sound]

This is a game changing concept and I know the PE speakers have been getting a lot of buzz. My only bone of contention is that there are some high performance in ceiling speakers available. All due respect to Gary who kind of brushed them off. I started with an open room and was able to build sealed boxes to insert my ceiling speakers into which did help. I was lucky. In a room with finished ceilings in place, running wire and placing boxes would be quite a task. If I were in that situation, the PE would be at the top of my list.

[@TechnoDad]

Hi! What's the recommended height for these speakers? The diagram shows they flank the listening area. Also, what angle is the front baffle?

[@SVS_Sound]

The recommended height is 6-8 feet and output levels can be adjusted if you need to go higher or lower. The front baffle angle is 70 degrees which takes into account typical listening environments and directionality for surround and height channels in the applications we are suggesting.

[@TechnoDad]

I have beams that run across my ceiling. I was planning on mounting them there. They would be about 6 ft in front of the listening area and up about 12 ft - 14 ft high. Would these elevation speakers work?

[@SVS_Sound]

Yes. At that height, you may want to raise the output levels a bit if your room correction doesn't set it high enough for your liking, but that location will work quite well.

[@roadrash3791]

[@lawrence09151]

I agree with you and thought about that. Even some in ceiling speakers have an option to purchase a separate enclosure and you have to bother with buying one for each of them and installing, further adding to the cost. A speaker already made with a perfect enclosure tuned and tweaked by manufacturer imo is the best. Waiting a little bit to pick up the white ones, just hope they will timbre match with m Klipsch RP speakers

[@SVS_Sound]

The Prime Elevation are neutral sounding and have been paired with all different brands of speakers, including Klipsch, B&W, Paradigm, and many more so I think you'll be happy.

[@onetwo6039]

This is a game changing design. Looking forward to two pairs of these in the near future after i get my new home theater receiver.

[@juliobro1]

Let me first congratulate SVS on the success of this design. And now, since its being a while, maybe there is the necessary data for a low profile design. See, where my hometheater is, I only have one side wall close to the system. The other wall is too far for adequate sound, so I need to mount on the ceiling and I observe the Primes to be a bit large. So, for this situation, a closer to the roof design would be aesthetically better. Please consider this option and let us know.

[@SVS_Sound]

Thanks for the comment, we'll pass your comments along to our engineering team.

[@B4G3L5]

For an Atmos/height channel application, would it be best to have them on side walls pointing toward the listening position or have them centered on the ceiling above? I have a bare stud room that I am creating a home theater in, so, I have the freedom to do whatever is best. Side thought... do you lose fidelity by breaking up the speaker cable by connecting one end to a speaker wire plate and then wire from that to the receiver? Or should I run one direct wire from the speaker to my receiver?

[@SVS_Sound]

Either of the Dolby Atmos configurations would be solid, but we generally defer to Dolby in cases like this (www.dolby.com/us/en/guide/dolby-atmos-speaker-setup/index.html), then pick the system layout and select overhead speakers. A lot of it comes down to your overall room shape and dimensions, but if you have the option, the overhead application generally performs better. We recommend running a wire directly the receiver if possible.

[@gamegenieny581]

How did it work out for you ? I'm considering using these as side height speakers and setting them as top middle. Wondering if you tried that and how it worked out.

[@WillySkullhead]

If mounting on a side wall for Atmos, should the speaker be aimed directly at the person seated? Or slightly in front of the seated person and aimed down. How many feet should the speaker be above the side surrounds?

[@SVS_Sound]

If mounting on a side wall, the speaker should be mounted between 6-9 feet off the ground with the front baffle angled down and aligned with or slightly in front of the primary listening position. Generally, the speakers are mounted close to where the wall meets the ceiling. You can always adjust the levels if you're looking to add more dynamic impact. The Prime Elevation also throw a wide soundstage so you have some flexibility with placement based on what works best for your room.

[@wata111]

Can it be used as a front height speaker even thought it might not be aimed directly at the main listening position? Or what would you suggest in this case?

[@Edwin-E]

Just curious, what is the difference between this design and standard speakers that is mounted in an angle? Let us say Klipsch satellite speakers and angle mount?

[@SVS_Sound]

The extra cabinet volume by having the protruding angled front baffle gives the Prime Elevation better dynamics and deeper low frequency extension compared to traditional satellites.

[@younggunz4081]

I have a chance to pick these up. But.....for those that have them already, is this a good speaker even not using it for dolby atmos?

[@SVS_Sound]

Prime Elevation is very close to a full-range bookshelf speaker, so even with nearfield listening, they will provide a very neutral listening experience with excellent clarity and dynamics and all the qualities of a great sounding loudspeaker. Would definitely benefit from pairing with a subwoofer if using purely for 2-channel listening.

[@ulflarsson9693]

This is going to be my next speakers. I have the jamo d500 thx now. And the svs sb 16 u sub also.

[@chehau997]

perphas u may try procella audio v21 (dual 21 inch subwoofers in a box)

[@eja35oz]

I'm planning on getting these to add to my 5.1 setup. The only place I can place them would be front height Above the tv 6-8 ft high pointed downward towards the listener. Would this work for dolby atmos? Or do they have to put on the sides? Also would placing these as front heights be better than using upfiring klipsch modules on top of my front towers?

[@SVS_Sound]

Prime Elevation speakers can absolutely be used on the front stage in a downward firing array. It would still deliver a more immersive audio experience because the output is much more predictable without relying on the bounce effect and they have broader frequency response (deeper bass & cleaner highs).

[@davidharper4418]

for dolby atmos, which is better for placement of these...front above the L & R , or behind in the back?

[@SVS_Sound]

The most common application is high on the side walls, aligned with the main seating position. When choosing between front and back, it depends on the layout of the room, we've seen success with both.

[@anirudh322]

What crossover freq. would you recommend to set these on?

[@SVS_Sound]

We'd recommend 80 or 90Hz, whichever sounds better to your ears.

[@SVS_Sound]

We generally recommend high on the side walls, especially if you can align with the seating area.

[@JamaicaSocial]

[@dan_hitchman007]

@@JamaicaSocial For little speakers like these, probably no higher than 10 feet. Depending on your receiver's rendering capabilities and room size, you want a minimum of four overhead or height speakers.

[@richardjackson9083]

[@lipscovc]

It would be nice to have the elevation speaker with a deeper bass that would give the home a more real theater sound as though at the movie. Everything sounds bassier at the movies.

[@gregbell5873]

I have the option to mount these speakers on the ceiling directly above the listening position. Would that be okay for these speakers and if yes, how far apart do you place them and what direction do you mount them ? Is the smaller end closer to the listening position than the larger end ?

[@SVS_Sound]

You always want the front baffle angled towards the listening area. If Mounted directly overhead, you'd position the Elevations just off to the left and right of the main listening position, at least 8 feet apart, but it could even be more depending on the size of the room.

[@joebowieaddick]

These sound extremely tempting...Biggest headache for me, and going by the comments here, it seems many other people, is wondering where to put these for best results...Then there's the added problem of fitting and tidying up the cables...Some of my cable will need to be tucked under carpets, then run across and up the walls, so will need to hide a fair bit of cable. My easiest option would be to place these at the front corners, up high on floating corner shelves...so in the corners of a 15ft wide room...Presently my front L/R & Center Speakers are in the middle of this space...5ft apart, at ear level...Would the corners be a good option, or would the SVS's be best placed high underneath the ceiling and in line with the front L/R's ..? I've read a lot about these speakers but found no information whether these are suitable on shelves...Would corner shelves work..?

[@SVS_Sound]

Yes, corner shelves would work. We also recommend high on the side walls, slightly forward of the main listening position, or directly on the ceiling, angling downward. You can email a few pics of your room to [e-mail] and our team will give recommendation based on your specific setup.

[@joebowieaddick]

Offering to view pictures of a potential customers room is great service... I’ve read many good reviews about these, so just took the plunge and bought them.

[@eja35oz]

if using these as front heights high on the wall are they supposed to be placed evenly above the front left and right towers or closer together so that they are pointed more towards the listener? My towers are pointed in angle towards the listener and since the mounts of the prime elevation points them straight forward the only way for them to be pointed directly to the listener would be if they were just a couple feet apart from each other above the tv (in between the towers)

[@SVS_Sound]

The Prime Elevations have excellent dispersion characteristics so you have some flexibility with placement, but if using on the front stage, we recommend mounting them even with the main L/R speakers. If there is 8 or more feet in between the front speakers, that's when you would want the Elevations a bit closer together.

Are these tuned for wall mounting i.e bass is cut abit to stop the bass boast being mounted that close to the wall? Would these perform better than the prime sats when mounted to a wall?

[@SVS_Sound]

Yes, they are tuned to ensure natural sounding bass even when mounted against a wall. They will outperform Prime Satellites in dynamic output and low frequency extension due to the larger cabinet volume and crossover tuning.

[@Stevo19801]

SVS I have the sats in all positions in a 5.2.2, the .2 being 2 pb1000’s. Love them, sound fantastic. I have the LCR behind an acoustic screen. I needed to trim under 200hz as I was getting to much of a boundary boast being so close to the front wall and corners. Few hours of measuring in REW got them dialed in. Want to upgrade the fronts to bigger Bookshelfes or ultras but worried I will get even more boost in those positions. Would love it if you made a 6inch forward facing speaker designed for close wall placement, basically like the elevation but with no angle. Would assume this would be a big seller as most people don’t have the space to pull LCR right into the room, and no one makes a speaker specifically for wall mounting with no compromise.Can I plug the ports on all of your speaker range without damaging them to help with this?

[@SVS_Sound]

Thanks for the feedback, we'll pass it along to our product development team. Regarding the ports, yes, you can plug the ports with no damage - this will roll-off the bass response earlier/sooner.

[@SVS_Sound]

Ultimately the speaker's output capabilities are the biggest difference. The Prime Elevation is essentially a full-range bookshelf speaker that can easily mounts to a wall or ceiling whereas most speakers mounted on a wall-bracket are compact satellites that lack the dynamic output to be truly effective. That said, you are right about the mounting and it just depends on what speaker you're comparing. Either option would be better than the ceiling bounce Atmos approach.

[@jeffpotthoff4975]

All your diagrams show these mounted high on a wall. How would they perform if mounted on a ceiling with the angle to the listening position?

Dolby Atmos uses 3D audio objects that are pannable in three-axis coordinates using rendering metadata to create immersive sound, which is different than what you're talking about.
