Make your home theater a yawn-free zone

SVS's Ultra Center is the ideal center channel model if you already own SVS's Ultra Bookshelf or Ultra Tower speakers. Its 3-way design features a dedicated midrange driver that covers the frequency range where dialogue lives. Weighing in at a hefty 31 pounds, this center speaker is no lightweight in any sense. Come movie night, the Ultra Center's impactful sound will keep you immersed in the onscreen action.

SVS designs every driver in house

While many companies build their speakers using off-the-shelf components, SVS designs all their drivers in house. This is a huge advantage because it gives them complete control over how the drivers, crossover, and cabinet interact.

The Ultra Center uses dual 6-1/2" woofers to produce center channel effects with unconstrained punch and impact. The composite glass-fiber cone material is extremely lightweight and rigid, allowing the woofers to sound smooth and natural through the midrange, while also delivering tight, controlled bass.

The 4" midrange driver is housed in its own sub-enclosure within the cabinet, to minimize internal interaction with the woofers. SVS's 1" aluminum dome tweeter sits right above the midrange unit, which helps the output from the two drivers blend more seamlessly.

Smart, solid construction

The Prime Center's cabinet is made of sturdy MDF, with an extra-thick front baffle and internal bracing to control unwanted vibrations. Those tapered edges on the front baffle are called chamfers. They reduce edge diffraction for clearer, more precise soundstaging.
