NOZ Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 MCos, I don't think that they are any better than Ultras but I could be wrong, I thingthat it's an artsy fartsy thing. They are beautiful though!

HornEd Posted August 22, 2002 Share Posted August 22, 2002 Good news, MCos! All of the sound characteristics between the Ultra and the SS are identical... the expensive difference is in the quality of the finish and some build ingredients. The Ultra was designed to have the best sound for the buck... and the SS was designed to be the speaker that spared no expense. The neat thing is that SVS vowed to keep the sound quality of the Ultra equal to the SS. Once again, Sean goes to the head of the class! -HornED ------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOZ Posted August 22, 2002 Share Posted August 22, 2002 HornEd, Head of the class? Do I get a prize? If I do I would like it to be another set of Ultras please. Be well.

TheEAR Posted August 25, 2002 Share Posted August 25, 2002 B0$e uses "tiny throw" mid-bass papier mache "woofers" with 10oz magnets in a band pass thin cheapo MDF cabinet and powers them with a sisi amp. This is the famous Acoustic Me$$ "sub-midrange" they call tuneful and punchy "sub" LOL B0$e owners should hear the evem smaller SUnfire Signature,they would probably complain the house is goint to fall apart. Why not make them listen to a Revel B15 and Aerial? More reality check for yuppie B0$e owners. TheEAR(s) Now theears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
