My Jaw dropped on the floor upon your declaration of preferring the SVS compared to R11 meta. As one who loves neutral transparent delivery of music with a huge airy soundstage, I'm intrigued. Thank you, Andrew, for enticing me to consider a brand of speakers that I had categorized as a mid level sub manufacturer.

@andrewrobinsonreviews 2 ай бұрын

SVS may have been more "mid-level," but I feel this new line is their attempt to move into higher-end waters.

@pj1333 2 ай бұрын

First, I LOVE your videos, content, and opinions! Second, I've heard both the SVS Pinnacle (not the Titans) and the Kef R11 Metas in my space and I much preferred the R11's less "active energy in the high end". I do understand why some will prefer the SVS in review/listening environments where they swap out speakers a lot. They have an "energy" to them that is easy to notice. However, when you have to live with speakers like this for years, you can get fatigued quickly from non-linear (not saying these are) or less than smooth in-room responses. If you bought the R11 Metas, DO NOT REGRET! You got AMAZING speakers with YEARS of research behind them! If you're considering the SVS, REALLY take the time to audition. Do not fall prey to the "I'm in the store" sound! Take them home and listen, listen, listen! My $.02 anyway. Great job Andrew/Kristi as always.

It’s very concise, understandable and, super informative, offering prospective buyers great insight as to what they might be purchasing - you can’t ask for more than that. Such a pleasure watching these. Very happy this wasn’t a “dud” for SVS as they are truly a high value brand, and while maybe not 801 level (as Kristi indicated) to be considered in the same conversation as R11’s says it all. They’re also sexy AF IMHO!

Great review and one I’ve been waiting for. But now thanks to you these speakers will be out of stock for the next year. Thanks a lot 😂. Seriously though, if these are as good you say they are without a separate amp, this is a huge deal for someone considering these to other speakers that require more power to sound good. That combo with the Sony 7000ES is sounding like a winner.

Thanks for another great review! As a newly retired person I have embarked on a quest to upgrade my music system, a feat I last undertook about 20 years ago and boy have things changed! So having folks like you help navigate the market is super helpful. I have been hunting down speaker choices and the SVS Evolution line is on the list so your review was awesome to watch. I see SVS had said that placement closer to the wall was fine but you opted to move the Titans out and I was wondering whether that was a rear port issue mainly or something else. I reached out to SVS to clarify some of the placement issue's and they very quickly responded, with a link to your SVS review. I suggested they send you out quickly the rest of the surround suite for a proper movie and music review as you seem to be leading the pack. Would love to see how the Pinnacle stacks up against the R11 as all info seems to have the Pinnacles as markedly better than Titans. Keep up the good work, loving it!

Specific question on these speakers, if I’m looking at the KEF R11 vs SVS, but I don’t have 24” in my living room, more like 8-12”, does your final verdict change.

If I had a place or need for the new Elevations I’d buy a pair, but the truth is I’m so happy with what I’ve got I just don’t need or want to make any changes. My Ultra Towers paired with a Peachtree Nova 300 two channel amp provide all the music bliss I need!

I am trying out the KEF R11 Metas, but saw your teaser photos of the Titans otherwise I wouldn't have known they existed. I waited until your review and affiliate link before ordering and let SVS know that's what I was waiting for. .🙂I'm comparing now myself and relate to everything you said in the review. I do find so far. that the R11's seem to just sound pleasant with everything and great for long sessions. There is something about the KEF sound that I love. However, you are so right about Titans having a less colored midrange that brings a bit more transparency. It seems the KEFs almost have a slight bit of a weighty reverb (if that makes sense and maybe it's my room) that seems unnatural vs the SVS. I think so far I prefer the Titans for movies and perhaps the KEFs for just a few songs. Hard decision, but for the price and my 50/50 use of home theatre/music, leaning towards the SVS so far. I've had the Polk R700's too and agree they are a warm sound comparatively. If I remember correctly, I felt more pressure from the Polks...which was an awesome thing about those speakers. Can't wait for the Friday Unplugged! Very curious what Kristi has to say!

Hey Andrew I've currently got Klipsch RF7 III's and Focal Kanta 2 floor standers. My gut says that the SvS ultra evolution would effectively replace the both of my current spekaers (HT and two channel music) Any thoughts on how the tweeter stacks up compared to the Focal berrylium range? Considering youve reviewed the Kanta 1

@stevewright1539 2 ай бұрын

Interesting takes with all the comparisons. Seems like the current generation of speakers all bring something to the table, and auditioning speakers,where possible, is as important as ever to see which suits your tastes.

I am surprised more speakers don't have time-aligned drivers. My 24 year old VAF DCX speakers have them but rather than curving the front panel, VAF recessed the horn loaded tweeter into the front panel then surrounded it with diffraction absorbing foam.

Very interesting speaker. I really love KEF and also really like coincident driver designs in general but I am not surprised that some people will prefer a design like this. Coincident drivers like the uni-Q do have some natural issues and drawbacks that KEF has worked extremely hard to minimize but still exist and there is definitely a place for a design like this in the market. What a great time of excellent choices!

Thanks Andrew! I’m _really_ looking forward to Kristi’s impressions. Like you, I also really like the R11 Meta sound, so this has been a fantastic review for me. Out of curiosity, why the Titan’s vs the Pinnacles? On a price-point to value comparison, the Pinnacles seem like they’d be a little closer to the R11 Metas. Did the decision to review the Titans deliberately factor in the price point consideration?

@@jamesmichael900 Believe me, Kristi and I went BACK AND FORTH over the decision to buy and review these speakers --good or bad. Ultimately, I believe that while an individual's choices at any company can potentially skew one's opinion, products don't know who their "parents" are. I wouldn't like being judged for the "sins of the Father," so to speak, so I try not to do that on this channel. Many people worked hard on this product, and I see my review honoring them and their efforts. Though I fully acknowledge that a positive review rewards everyone at a brand, but I just can't concern myself with that. No person, brand, or product is perfect, and I have to leave room for people and things to learn and grow from past mistakes. I want people to do the same for me, so I give a little grace when possible. But none of that matters because the Titans are legitimately good.

I have the current prime pinnacles and I personally would love to hear all the new series Ultras. I am not sold that I would go with Titan or Pinnacles due to my space issues but I would love to hear the new Ultra Pinnacles, Titan, and Evolution towers head to head. They definitely all look nice. I love my current Pinnacles and for my space needs they were great, so the Evolutions would be my most likely option. Though right now the Ultra Center is what I am debating as I still have the prime center and while I do like it, i am curious as most say its a fairly big step up between even the prime and the old ultra center.

If you have a mission critical setup or are building around multiple rows of seating in a dedicated home theater space, you do need measurements and not just subjective listening. Some speakers also need more targeted acoustic treatments to sound their best. Again, you need quality measurements to make the best purchase.

Good Sunday morning Andrew and Kristi. As an SVS subwoofer owner I'm glad to see SVS back on your channel. Looks like they've once again delivered a lot of bang for the buck. I'm wondering Andrew if in your long speaker reviewing career, you find the performance delta narrowing between the high level products like the B&W 801 Signature or Focal Utopia EVO versus an SVS Titan or KEF R11 Meta that cost 1/10th of the price compared to similar speaker price gaps 10 years ago? Basically, is the continuous trickle down of improvements from flagships to the more affordable end of the speaker spectrum narrowing the performance gap between the two different price points compared to a decade ago? Thanks again.
