ocation and measurement:
ments from your typical preferred seat for watching movies (center
cushion, right?). Strong bass levels can vary tremendously simply by
moving a few feet. Such is the nature of long wave-length, low bass
sound. Don't hesitate to experiment with different locations and differ-
ent level settings of your subwoofer.

erformance Specifications.
We said we were tough home theater customers, and we meant it. Our
response charts reflect honest, no-BS performance
Measured at 2 meters, ground plane

maker can say that. Some use equalization to get artificially low re-
sponse (which can be ok, but often reduces available amp power and
bass SPL to a fraction of what you'd think). Other times you'll see
"response curves" charted at a ridiculously low volume (that is, great
"flat" performance, but only at a volume too low to hear). There are all
sorts of tricks to make subwoofer's performance "look good". We
don't use any of them, and thought you might appreciate that. At SVS,
we guarantee not only you'll be surprised and amazed (with bass you
never experienced before), but also that your sub performs at least as
well as advertised, no smoke or mirrors allowed. While equalization
can be used with our subs, the response curves shown reflect perform-
ance you can achieve with virtually any good quality amp.
