    The little speaker that could

    I replaced Bose Jewel speakers with Prime Elevations and am blown away. These guys handle home theater better than expected and embarrassed Bose both musically and movie! Rich and powerful with some bass too! They actually sounded pretty good as main speakers as I set them up first just to check them out. The mounting hardware that came with them worked perfectly. They have some weight so use anchors to mount. I’m using them as front and rear surround and may get 2 more for ceiling but at this point I don’t think I need that. They fill the room nicely. The Prime Elevations are extremely well built and I mounted them on the wall and angled them down into the room. I cannot now imagine a better speaker for this purpose. I would use these for ceiling, height or atmos as well as surround, I realize I had many options in this arena but surround speakers don’t handle the meat of the soundstage they are accent speakers do spending a small fortune on surrounds didn’t make sense, either did skimping. SVS really put a great sounding high quality speaker out here that honestly could be used as main bookshelf type speakers , they that good. But real Home Run here besides sound and quality is the the angle option (up/down) and the best mounting option I ever saw ( easier less complicated than Bo$e). Highly recommended. They are a special little speaker that fills my room!

    Went from a 7.1 system to a 7.1.2 system with these prime elevation speakers. and all i can say is wow. Atmos adds a whole new level to your home theater surround sound experience. And boy does it sound good. SVS is a very, very, very good speaker company. I would highly recommend them

    For small speakers they are impressive. They are perfect for Atmos if you dint want to add ceiling speakers. These can be mounted on the side walls or ceiling.

    These Prime Elevation's really round out the over all experience for true Dolby Atmos sound. Heard the difference immediately after tuning everything in.

    I added these speakers to my home theater system for front facing sound. The sound is crisp and clear even at high volumes. I was surprised to know that they also carry a good amount of bass, even though I bought them primarily for the higher sound range. The are fairly compact, appear to be well constructed and deliver a nice sound. I am very pleased with my purchase of these speakers.

    I was looking for something small and clean with a gloss black finish to go with my woofers and smaller 2 channel system in my office. I really like these little guys. I put an 8" woofer under each of them and used crossovers, 70 up to these and 70 down to the woofers. Results: Very nice!!! These little things have some flavor!

    Great for Atmos. My room has cathedral ceilings so it’s a challenge to get that kind of effect. This planet does a great job.

    Quality sound, quality construction, and integrates nicely w home theater system. Kind of pricey but do not regret purchase. I mounted mine on the wall and wish they had a better engineered connector. I would recommend to a friend.

    As Atmos speakers they are fantastic. They can be used as bookshelf; however, they are thin on bass. A subwoofer will need to be used with them. The prime elevation speakers also work fantastic when using for nearfield purposes. These speakers are crisp without being fatiguing. They have a nuetral sound; with a solid build. They have a small footprint with great imaging and a decent sound stage. They are expensive but very versatile. Worth every penny; especially when they are on sale.

    Added two pairs of these to upgrade my home theater to 7.1.4. Along with the SVS Prime Towers, Center, and two pairs of Prime Elevation the combo is incredibly immersive. Also have the SVS SB4000 subwoofer to handle the bass.

    I’m using the prime elevation speakers as a back surround sound speakers. They have a bracket on the back of them which makes it easy to attach to the wall without buying any other mounting brackets. I also have the ultra bookshelves and the ultra center and a SB 2000 subwoofer all from SVS. I did not want to spend a whole lot on surround speakers so I went with the prime elevation speaker, glad I did they sound great. And if I decide to get the Ultra Surround Speakers from svs I can use these as Atmos speakers win-win for me.

    I heard SVS advertised on SiriusXM so I figured there must be some quality behind these speakers. I was not let down. These speakers produce great sound form my Marantz receiver. They are small in size but deliver a big sound. Piano Gloss Black was worth the extra money.

    Woke up my entire rear sound stage on a 7.1 system. They also blended perfectly with my onkyo rear surrounds. An excellent way to upgrade your surrounds without breaking the bank!

    I usually don't hand out 5 star reviews, but I think this one is worth it. $399 for a speaker that takes the guess work out of mounting and aiming for Dolby Atmos. I'm here for it. I've spent the last 8 months using ceiling bounce modules that were effective, but not ideal to use with sloped ceilings. I've only got about an hour of demo time with these, but it was enough to annihilate the ceiling bounce in my application. These provide a quality, full range sound for the height channel and give convincing overhead effects. The price can seem steep for someone like me, who mainly just buys speakers in the 100 to 200 dollar range. However, this is one that is absolutely worth the cost.
