Direct-radiating immersive height effects for Atmos/DTS:X/Auro-3D
Designed to aim full-range sound toward the listener for convincing overhead effects without relying on reflective “ceiling bounce” behavior.
Multi-angle wall/ceiling mounting bracket for flexible placement
The included SVS Multi-Angle Wall Bracket (patent pending) supports multiple orientations, letting you mount high on walls, on ceilings, or in creative positions for the best coverage.
Angled baffle supports multiple roles (height, surround, LCR)
The cabinet geometry and tuning make it equally at home as a height channel, side/rear surround, or even an LCR/center solution when ear-level placement isn’t possible.
1" aluminum dome tweeter with optimized diffuser for airy detail
Built for fast transient response and clean extension, helping deliver crisp effects, intelligible dialog cues, and refined high-frequency texture.
4.5" midrange driver engineered for clarity, low distortion, and control
A polypropylene cone, aluminum shorting ring, composite basket, and vented former work together to reduce distortion and maintain articulate, consistent midrange performance.
Premium 2-way crossover and rigid, resonance-resistant cabinet design
High-quality crossover components and a braced MDF enclosure help preserve phase coherence, reduce coloration, and keep sound precise across a wide range of placements.

SVS Prime Elevation Speaker

The SVS Prime Elevation Speaker is a high-performance, ultra-flexible home theater loudspeaker built to solve real-world placement challenges while delivering true immersive audio. Acclaimed as one of the best Dolby Atmos speakers, it’s designed as a direct-radiating height effects speaker for Dolby Atmos®, DTS:X®, and Auro-3D®—so you get overhead effects without relying on “ceiling bounce” compromises or perfect room conditions. Thanks to its angled front baffle and included SVS Multi-Angle Wall Bracket (patent pending), Prime Elevation can mount to a wall or ceiling in multiple orientations and confidently pull duty as a height, surround, LCR, or even a creative specialty channel in rooms where traditional speaker placement isn’t possible. Premium driver engineering, a refined 2-way crossover, and a rigid, resonance-resistant cabinet combine for crisp dialog, precise imaging, and dynamically charged detail that makes movies, music, and gaming more convincing.
