In this SVS Ultra Evolution Tower Floorstanding Speakers review, we delve into a product that represents the pinnacle of audio engineering. As audiophiles and hi-fi enthusiasts, we at The Audio Tailor are thrilled to introduce you to this masterpiece that promises to redefine your listening experience.
Unveiling the SVS Ultra Evolution Tower
The SVS Ultra Evolution Tower Floorstanding Speakers are a testament to SVS's unwavering commitment to sonic perfection. These speakers are not just another addition to the market; they are the culmination of years of research, innovative design, and a passion for delivering unparalleled audio quality.
Cutting-Edge Technology Meets Artisanal Craftsmanship
At the heart of the Ultra Evolution Tower lies a symphony of advanced technologies:
- Acoustically Centred Time Alignment Cabinet Architecture: The curved front baffle aligns the sonic emanation point of all drivers on a vertical plane, ensuring that sound from each driver reaches your ears simultaneously. This maximises phase coherence, resulting in a more convincing and immersive soundstage with pinpoint accuracy and imaging.
- Diamond Coated Aluminum Dome Tweeter: Through a process called Vapor Deposition, a layer of diamond carbon is applied to the aluminium dome tweeters. This breakthrough in material science raises the frequency response well beyond the limits of human hearing, resulting in effortless, airy, and unveiled highs with no measurable distortion.
- Quad 5.25" Glass Fibre Woofers in Force Balanced Array: The dual opposing active woofers on the top and bottom of the cabinet render effortless low-frequency response while addressing room modes. This configuration ensures deep, authoritative bass is evenly spread throughout the listening area.
- Dual 4.5" Glass Fiber Composite Midrange Drivers: The superb stiffness-to-mass ratio on this dual-driver array conveys stunning dynamics with flawless tonal accuracy.
A Closer Look at the Performance
The SVS Ultra Evolution Tower Floorstanding Speakers are designed to deliver a sonic experience that is nothing short of extraordinary. With a frequency response of 30Hz to 40kHz (+/-3 dB), these speakers cover the entire audible spectrum and beyond, ensuring that every nuance of your favourite music is reproduced with utmost fidelity.
The 87dB sensitivity (2.83V @ 1 meter full-space, 300Hz – 3kHz) coupled with a nominal impedance of 6 ohms makes these speakers compatible with a wide range of amplifiers. However, to truly unlock their potential, we recommend pairing them with high-quality amplification in the 20 – 300 watts range.
Aesthetic Appeal
Available in stunning Piano Gloss Black, Piano Gloss White, and Black Oak Veneer finishes, the Ultra Evolution Tower speakers are not just sonic marvels but also visual masterpieces. The chamfered front baffle and flush-mounted drivers not only contribute to the speaker's elegant appearance but also serve to reduce edge diffraction, improving both on-axis and off-axis high-frequency response.
