Side or Rear-Firing Surround Sound Speaker
The SVS Prime Elevation offers great flexibility as a
surround sound speaker in any set-up, but especially
when placement on a side or rear wall is not optimal.
As a side surround, the Elevation can be placed
towards the back of the room in a front firing position.
For rear surround channels, the speakers can be
placed on a side wall in a rear firing position. Since the
angled front baffle is directing the sound towards the
back wall, it will provide rear surround effects and a
diffuse sound field.
The mounting height is important
to consider when locating the
best position for your SVS Prime
Elevation Speakers, especially
when using as a rear or side
surround. For the best sense of
spaciousness, we recommend
the tweeter height of your
speaker be about two feet above
ear level at the listening position.
If overhead effects speakers are
already being used in other
channels of the system, we
recommend mounting the Prime
Elevation closer to ear level when
used as surround speakers.
