SVS is streamlining the 25-31PCi, 20-39PCI, and 16-46PCi series of subwoofers. The PC12-NSD powered cylinder subwoofer will replace the 25-31PCi, 20-39PCI, and 16-46PCi.

SVS PC12-Plus

SVS - The Sound Authority - has announced the new PC12-Plus. The PC12-Plus will be replacing the existing 25-31PC+, 20-39PC+, and the 16-46PC+ Cylinder Subwoofers. The PC12+ subwoofer will be equipped with the same new v12.4 driver included with the new PB12 Plus subwoofer. For a limited time the pre-order price of the PC12-Plus will be $899. After the PC12-Plus begins shipping, the price will be raised to $999.

SVS AS-EQ1

SVS - The Sound Authority will be releasing the SVS AS-EQ1 Audyssey Audio Correction Device. Audyssey labs developed the AS-EQ1 using Audyssey's MULTEQ DSP technologies. The AS-EQ1 is not your ordinary Parametric Equalizer (PEQ). In addition to performing automatic frequency correction, it also performs time correction to account for the delay added when correcting the frequency. The AS-EQ1 is dual channel so you can equalize up to two subwoofers simultaneously. Even more impressive is the Graphical User Interface (connected to a PC or laptop) and the ability to correct the bass for up to 32 different seating positions.

The AS-EQ1 is not currently for sale, so if you are looking to buy a similar bass correction device today, you should consider the Velodyne SMS-1.

New PB12-Plus Subwoofer Arriving Nov 2008

Today, SVS "The Sound Authority" announced the introduction of the new PB12-Plus for 2009. The new PB12-Plus is a completely different design than the previous PB12-Plus. The new PB12-Plus has the same design as the high performance PB13-Ultra subwoofer. The PB12-Plus will have a native tuning of 20hz with three flared ports. Customers will be able to pre-order the subwoofer this month, with a pre-order special price of $999. The regular price will be $1199 for all finishes. Deliver is scheduled to begin this November.

Given SVS's current track record of impressive subwoofers and excellent customer service, I'm sure this new subwoofer will amaze even the most critical audiophiles.
