SVS is best known for its award-winning subwoofers, but it would be a huge mistake to not consider its wide range of loudspeakers as well. If you are looking to build a high-end 2.1 or 7.2.2 home theater system — their products deserve some serious consideration.
With the impending release of its Ultra Evolution Series loudspeakers, SVS has decided to clear out its current Ultra Series speakers to make room. This means that if you are looking to purchase some great speakers, this may be your best opportunity to save a lot of money on these award-winning speakers.
SVS Ultra Sale
First introduced in 2012, the SVS Ultra Series have been its flagship loudspeaker series for more than a decade.
Music listeners can save up to $600 on a pair of the Ultra Tower loudspeakers and there are other savings to be found on the rest of the lineup.
This is a final sale and once the inventory is sold off — you are out of luck.
Here are the speakers included in the closeout sale:
- Ultra Tower – Save $600/pair
- Ultra Bookshelf – Save $400/pair
- Ultra Center – Save $100
- Ultra Surround – Save $400/pair
As an added incentive, a 5% savings is also available when purchasing 5 or more products with promo code “System”. This includes subwoofers, Prime Series speakers, and items from the Outlet Store. All SVS speakers are timbre-matched which means they can be mixed-and-matched and will blend seamlessly in a home theater.
The SVS Ultra Series Speakers incorporate design characteristics to deliver reference sound quality. Rendering a broad soundstage with incredible resolution, pristine clarity, and amazingly rich and articulated bass, SVS says its Ultra Series speakers can stand toe-to-toe with more expensive high-end hi-fi and home theater speakers.
