Great sound is best in surround sound systems

These are well-made little speakers that sound great. The external sub really complements the sound. I connected them to my new Alienware Aurora R10. The sound and games are great.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Crumpled

Everything that is advertised

Everything works as stated. I am playing audio over Bluetooth and video over HDMI (wireless) to a projector. Lip sync when it's perfect. And the sound is amazing.

Pros
  • A large selection
Cons
  • Negative is available

Great SVS sound best in speakers

This is the true greatness of SVS. I have several Ultras hooked up to my receiver below, so the sound quality is very comfortable on my desk. I would say what I miss the most is the PC USB input as that's the way I connect my laptop.

Pros
  • Quick Change
Cons
  • No

Good sound for 20 minutes

These speakers sound great and I want them to work just as well when gaming over wifi which is why I bought them. After several updates I still have the same problem. After 20-30 minutes of music playback over WiFi (using lossless audio over PLEX and even Revain music), the music suddenly repeats over the last 5 seconds of playback. The only solution is to reset the speakers and start over until the same problem occurs again. For the $500 I paid for it, I expected a lot more. Very disappointed.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

Good sound, lots of sources

Sounded good given the limited source material I tried. Great value in terms of inputs - enough to save you from a receiver in many cases: plug it all into your main speaker and you're good to go. My primary goal was streaming 2.0, but the Play-Fi cloud just isn't capable of working with Alexa (always or sometimes at all), so I'd have to add another source (period or whatever). At this point I can also get a similar sound from a pair of nearfield monitors, reducing the value of the electronicsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Not as good as advertised

Disappointed Good for surround sound systems

Read and see several reviews of these speakers. They sound just as good without a subwoofer as my Edifier R2000DB, but the Edifier doesn't have a SW port so I wanted to upgrade them. IMHO they screwed up when they decided not to add a remote control to them. Instead of a remote, you have to use an app called DTS Ply-Fi. After an hour on the phone with SVS and two hours on the app webpage, I still can't connect. Every hour I spend troubleshooting this only adds to the cost of this purchaseโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Good workmanship
Cons
  • Upgradeable

Destroyed by the DTS app: Speakers

I have an SVS subwoofer and love it. The Bkuetooth app for control works great. You should have used it on her. Not only is the DTS app an absolute MAN, it also doesn't tell you that it's the only way to listen to music 24/7. It's stupid to use an app to play music from ANOTHER APP. For this reason I have separated from my Bose. Except that their app was usable. I spent more time plugging in these speakers and playing music than listening to them. SVS also spent too much time and moneyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Empty

The sound is good but DTS Play fi is bullshit.

The sound quality is awesome, the application is rubbish. I'm not an audiophile so can't fully judge the sound, but at half volume I can hear it clearly, like in the kitchen from a back room during the day. These speakers fit in a much bigger room than I can afford so I put them in the living room. A lot of the reviews I read said I should add a subwoofer, which I did. I added a 100w Polk subwoofer and it sounds fantastic. However, the streaming capabilities were a bit odd to set up. Theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • old
