SVS Ultra Bookshelf Speakers

Here we are with something that you might want to consider when it comes to upgrading your living room – a decent pair of speakers, which will definitely outdo whatever Hi-Fi system that you purchased in the past. There should be nothing quite like a great pair of speakers, and this is where the Ultra Bookshelf Speakers from SVS come in handy, with SVS being a worldwide leader in high-performance home audio products.

As you can see for yourself in the image above, the Ultra Bookshelf Speakers come handsomely styled, complete with a swept back profile as well as striking edge treatments, where it draws design cues from the flagship Ultra Tower speaker while sporting sonic-enhancing wedge-shaped front baffle and flush-mounted drivers, accompanied by proprietary SVS drivers and the intelligent SoundMatch Crossover Network.

SVS envisioned a two-way monitor when engineering the Ultra Bookshelf speaker’s design, hoping for it to fill small to medium–sized rooms with an encompassing, coherent soundstage, in addition to churning out deep, dynamic bass; and sparkling mid and high-frequency details, regardless of whether they were being pushed to extreme volumes or played at moderate levels. Using a clever combination of premium build materials, FEA optimization, cabinet innovation and careful selection of crossover frequencies, has managed to make the Ultra Bookshelf Speakers possible.

In order to deliver low to midrange-frequency performance, the Ultra Bookshelf will boast of a hefty 6.5-inch composite glass-fiber cone woofer that is capable of pumping out an excellent stiffness to mass ratio for high sensitivity, while maintaining pistonic behavior that is well beyond the pass-band of the driver. The Ultra Bookshelves will also be equipped with SVS’ SoundMatch two-way crossover network, in addition to premium-grade capacitors, air-core inductors and heavy-trace printed circuit boards that function in harmony, making sure that pure signal transmission and radiation is achieved to hit a generous sweet spot.

The Ultra Bookshelf speakers from SVS will tip the scales at 19 lbs. each, and will come in premium-grade piano gloss black and real black oak veneer finishes, retailing for $499 each.

NuForce launches $300 Bluetooth 4.0 bookshelf speakers, promises to please audiophiles

NuForce launches Bluetooth 40 bookshelf speakers, promises to please audiophiles

NuForce has just launched the NuForce S3-BT, a line of high-quality bookshelf speakers that tout Bluetooth 4.0 as one of its main selling points. Most Bluetooth speakers tend to pale in comparison to their analog counterparts, but NuForce is confident its apt-x and AAC codecs will provide CD-quality audio even to the most discerning audiophile. If you’re unconvinced, NuForce has also included a set of analog inputs plus the company’s own Air DAC wireless system for slightly higher quality audio streaming. The powered speakers have a 3.5-inch bass driver and a 1-inch tweeter each, and the woofer touts a proprietary anti-resonance cone. If you care about looks, the speakers are wrapped in either soft white or black leatherette. They aren’t cheap — a pair will cost you $300 — but for attractive high-fidelity speakers that won’t contribute to your home’s existing nest of wires, it may well be worth it.
