The SVS Sound Ultra Center channel speaker is a reference 3-way speaker that reproduces the most demanding movie and music content with depth, clarity and vigor, while serving as the main soundstage anchor and critical sonic bridge between the front left and right speakers in a surround sound home theater. The SVS Ultra Center combines power and precision to outperform much larger and more expensive center channel speakers. This speaker features a painstakingly tuned SoundMatch three-way crossover with dual 6.5-inch glass fiber composite woofers and a vertically aligned 1-inch aluminum dome tweeter and 4-inch midrange driver.

Driver Specs:
1” Aluminum Dome Tweeter:
-
Vertically aligned tweeter and midrange improves horizontal axis polar response, with reduced lobing and comb filtering
-
FEA-optimized diffuser for airy and unveiled presentation
-
Aluminum dome delivers exceptional transient response and exceptional stiffness/mass ratio
4” Midrange Drivers:
-
Composite glass-fiber cone with excellent stiffness/mass ratio for high sensitivity and pistonic behavior beyond pass band
-
Aluminum shorting ring to reduce gap inductance, lower distortion, and enhance high frequency response
-
Cast aluminum basket to ensure precise alignment of critical components and additional heat-sinking capacity
-
Vented voice coil former to minimize air compression artifacts at high drive levels
6.5” Woofers:
- Composite glass-fiber cone with excellent stiffness/mass ratio for high sensitivity and pistonic behavior beyond pass band
- Aluminum shorting rings to reduce gap inductance and lower distortion
- Cast aluminum basket to ensure precise alignment of critical components and additional heat-sinking capacity
- Vented voice coil formers to minimize air compression artifacts at high drive levels
Crossover & Cabinet Specs:
Crossover:
- 3-way crossover with premium-grade capacitors, air-core inductors and heavy-trace printed circuit boards
- Midrange-to-tweeter crossover: 2.2 kHz
- Midrange-to-woofer crossover: 500 Hz
Cabinet:
- Acoustically transparent and FEA optimized grilles, wedge-shaped front baffle and flush-mounted drivers all contribute to reduced edge diffraction and improved on-axis high frequency response
- FEA-optimized bracing reduces cabinet resonances
