The joy of pristine clarity, absolute transparency, stunning dynamics, and effortless bass for more people than ever. SVS Ultra Evolution Pinnacle deeply connects you to the emotion of sound.
Inspired Design, Reference Performance.
Acoustically Centred Time Alignment Cabinet Architecture
- Curved front baffle aligns the sonic emanation point of all drivers on a vertical plane ensuring sound from each driver reaches your ears at the exact same instant.
- Maximises phase coherence for more convincing and immersive soundstage with pinpoint accuracy and imaging.
- Midrange drivers and woofers positioned above and below the tweeter allow for seamless crossover blending to create an idealised “point-source” where sound flows from single point in front of the speaker to optimise dispersion characteristics.
Diamond Coated Aluminum Dome Tweeter
- Through a process called Vapor Deposition, a layer of diamond carbon is applied to the aluminium dome tweeters to vastly improve rigidity and acoustic properties.
- This breakthrough in material science raises the frequency response well beyond the limits of human hearing resulting in effortless, airy, and unveiled highs with no measurable distortion.
- The diamond coating also pushes low frequency extension of the tweeter deeper for more seamless blending with the midrange.
- Organic cell lattice tweeter diffuser protects the dome and employs semi-random pattern derived from organic cell structures to improve off-axis response and maximise the listening “sweet spot.”
Quad 8” Glass Fibre Woofers in Force Balanced Array
- Dual opposing active woofers on the top and bottom of the cabinet render effortless low frequency response while addressing room modes. Deep, authoritative bass is evenly spread throughout the listening area.
- Mechanical energy from each front-firing woofer is equaled inside the cabinet by the rear-firing woofer eliminating mechanical coloration for pure, accurate low frequencies at any playback level.
Dual 5.25" Glass Fiber Composite Midrange Drivers
- Superb stiffness to mass ratio on dual driver array conveys stunning dynamics with flawless tonal accuracy.
Unrelenting Attention to Detail
- Separate, acoustically tuned internal chambers for the woofers and midrange drivers optimise separation and eliminate any potential for cabinet resonances, resulting in pristine sound across the frequency spectrum.
- Uncompromising 3-Way crossover with premium components seamlessly blends driver output. Subtle musical details are rendered with breathtaking clarity, while massive dynamics radiate with weight and control from the highest to lowest octaves.
- Precision-cast aluminium-alloy baskets ensure precise alignment of critical components and maximise thermal dissipation.
- Chamfered front baffle minimises edge diffraction for optimal off-axis frequency response.
- Neodymium magnetic grilles
- Stunning Piano Gloss Black, Piano Gloss White, and Black Oak Veneer Finish

Dispassionate, Authoritative & Delightful
Format: Hardcover
Impartial: This dispassionate history of the Supreme Court should be read by everyone genuinely concerned about the future of our country and the rule of law. It's impartiality will likely infuriate those on the Left or Right who would prefer to vilify and demolish this branch of our government. There are plenty of books out there that will support your rage. But this book is a deep breath of fresh air.
I speak as a member of the bar of the Supreme Court, a retired federal judge, and a lifelong Democrat. The Most Powerful Court In the World (an accurate title) It is the first serious and nonpartisan book written about the Supreme Court in at least the last 30 years. Chock full of details and yet eminently readable.
Context: Law Professor Banner puts today's Court in its historical context, demolishing the proposition that in the good old days the Court was a quiet and apolitical sanctum of wisdom and that it has only recently become controversial and political. It's been extremely controversial since at least 1803. Banner's recounting of the historical facts (including wonderful anecdotes) lifts the reader from the immediate tumult of 2024 headlines and provides us with the long view of the Court and the evolution of the law and the Court. Examples include:
1. Court packing (it started with John Marshall in 1801) and manipulating the number of Justices to help, or prevent, Presidential agenda's and appointments (1801).
2. Diversity on the Court (regional, religious, racial, gender)
3. Reconstruction and Jim Crow.
4. The Commerce Clause revolution and its sequel.
5. The rise of individual liberty litigation and decisions in the 20th century, starting with the novel idea of applying the Bill of Rights to the States. Religion, free speech, Roe, Dobbs.
5. The winning judicial strategies for challenging racial discrimination, sexual and gender discrimination and LGBTQ+ discrimination cases to the Court and their current erosion. Affirmative action and its demise.
6. The fact that the Court (composed of lawyers who are taught to revere history, precedent and law) has been a conservative institution for its entire history except for 15 years right after FDR when, for a short interval, it moved to the Left.
7. Movements to reform the Court (age limits, more justices, Congressional veto, jurisdiction stripping) have been perennial. Including Biden's Presidential Commission Report of 2021.
8. The fact that the Justices are human beings who have hobnobbed with the President, VP, Senators, Politicos and Business people forever. Frankfurter played poker with FDR, Douglas took a $12,000 per year salary from the owner of a Las Vegas Casino, Fortas took $20,000 per year from Louis Wolfson, who was later convicted and sent to prison. Spouses who worked for law firms that appeared before the Court.
The reader will note that in his discussion of every case, especially the modern ones, Professor Banner provides a representative and pithy quote from the Majority decision and from the dissent. He recounts them fairly and does not take sides. He lets the reader think about it.
This book is a delightful change from the norm for modern SCOTUS literature - which is either a partisan hatchet job by a journalist or professor, a compendium of gossip from the law clerks willing to talk, or the warm and neutral memoire or musings of a current Justice trying to make a buck or a former Justice burnishing his or her place in history. Banner gives you as straight, objective and unvarnished a history as you are likely to get these days. It is not a hit-job. It is not a hagiography.
The Most Powerful Court in the World should be required reading for any student of the Supreme Court.

Should Be Required Reading!
Format: Hardcover
All citizens should read this captivating history of the Supreme Court and learn that there's no much new in recent criticisms of the court; criticism based on the outcome of a case and not the legal reasoning and jurisprudence behind the outcome.

Good history of the court despite some bias
Format: Hardcover
This was a very interesting history of the court and a fairly good account of how it had changed as well as in other ways not changed over 2 centuries. In the final part regarding the current court, it is apparent that the author is not even handed regarding his analysis of the current justices and decisions, especially regarding anything involving President Trump. Overall, scholarly and well cited with much good analysis and explanation, at least through 80% or so of the book.

Even handed approach and approachable
Format: Kindle
The accolades provided by the book reviewers are accurate. This is accessible, non-partisan and shows a keen understanding of how our legal system has developed over the history of the US. As a practicing attorney, I found myself exclaiming over and again "wow, I didn't realize that!" throughout the read. I studied many of the cases he discusses in law school. I've read other books about the Supreme Court included Wm. Rhenquist's History of the Supreme Court and The Bretheren. Even though I was a serious student, I was enlightened by the author's telling of the story. Like a good history book, this is well-researched.
