SVS acoustic engineers spent more time voicing Prime Pinnacle than any speaker in SVS history, in large part to create a loudspeaker that was equally suited to meet the demands of both discerning audiophiles and hardcore home theater fans. To go even further, Prime Pinnacle’s cabinet design was made to blend seamlessly and sound amazing in any listening environment.
World-class performance in both a two-channel HiFi stereo or an immersive home theater surround sound system, Prime Pinnacle is unrivaled in its class and well-beyond.
Audiophile Refinement. Breathtaking Home Theater Dynamics.
Design innovations in the Prime Pinnacle speaker harness qualities both discerning audiophiles and home theater fans will delight over. All-new driver array is optimized for massive dynamics and incredibly refined output while the cost-no-object cabinet design and materials, sophisticated components and inspired acoustic engineering combine for a floor standing speaker that stands alone at its price and well beyond.
All-New 5.25″ Midrange Driver with Composite Glass-Fiber Cone
Delivers pinpoint accuracy and broad soundstage for more immersive audio experiences. The majority of audio content in music and movies is present in the midrange frequencies so it’s imperative to have a driver capable of producing slam and impact as well as subtle details with tonal accuracy. Prime Pinnacle’s midrange borrows design elements from the reference Ultra Series to deliver uncompromised audio performance at all drive levels.
Premium 1” Aluminum Dome Tweeter
Renders crystal clear highs with lifelike realism even at reference volume. Light, efficient and impervious to distortion, the tweeter’s airy’ presentation effortlessly reveals every sonic detail with pristine clarity and unerring accuracy. The FEA-optimized diffuser ensures broad dispersion for a wide and convincing soundstage with pinpoint on- and off-axis frequency response so everyone in your room is treated with the same amazing audio experience.
Trio of 6.5” High-Performance Woofers
Effortless low frequency output and impressive deep bass extension from three 6.5” woofers lays the sonic foundation for all audio content. Engineered to convey the full thrill and excitement of cinematic blockbusters yet refined enough to handle the pluck of a bass guitar string and subtlest musical details with convincing realism, Prime Pinnacle delivers an amazing full-range listening experience with all audio content. By using three smaller woofers, each with its own 2-inch port, the new floor standing speaker effortlessly conveys low frequency output while maintaining a slim profile that fits in any room or system.

Superb Sound for the Money
Review by Steven L. on 25 Mar 2020review stating Superb Sound for the MoneyI received my Prime Pinnacles today via Fedex. I was a LITTLE concerned when it showed up with a hole in the side of the box. Fedex must be hiring old baggage handlers. All is good no damage to the speaker. Plugged them in and worked fine right out of the box. I put on some music from Amazon HD and it sounded good. Then did a full room EQ via my PRead more about review stating Superb Sound for the Moneyioneer Lx 701 MCaCC and also using a SPL meter to set the sweet spot for me. I replayed the music I heard before. What a difference from Volkswagon to Cadillac. I listened for quite awhile all ranges of music from Classical to Big Band. Incredible soundstage and detail I haven’t heard from any speaker in straight Stereo.
The I switched over to movies. I have a Sony Dolby Demo 4k UHD disk and listened to them in 5.2.4 surround sound. I used an OPPO 203 4k Bluray player and they really popped with sound, clean clear crisp. Great separation.
My only complaint is that they should have used magnetic speaker grills and could have used better binding post, no deal breakers there.
I had some questions regarding run in time and and the Support Staff said after a week to redo room EQ and then would be good to go.
I would recommend these to anyone looking to upgrade. These are solid well built speakers, heavy 60 lbs each.
Now I just have sit back and listen and enjoy them
