I have a pair of SVS Ultra bookshelf speakers driven by a Marantz pm7000n which do very well except for occasional slight tweeter harshness while streaming music on UA-cam, which could be somewhat caused by the compressed music. Looking forward to upgrading to the Evolution speakers soon! Great job to Mad Audio with this review! 👍
I'd have the Sonetto 2 (G1) ... however, the SVS EVO tweeter is a nice step up from the previous model. For the price as well, I feel they are a very good value - as most of the time these days .. we can either correct with an EQ .. or Room Correction / DSP. They handle signal really well.
I think they would look sharper with a dark grey or black grill. If I bought white gloss I would special order a pair of black grills myself. Price wise, size wise they seem well placed versus the competition. Coming from Focal, Dali, Triangle speakers, these speaker's SQ would probably appeal to me from early reviews so far. At 85 dB, they seem to need a bit of power. Would a 40 to 50 watt quality amp drive these without them losing liveliness in the mids and highs and retain a tight and fast bass or in order to get that do you really need power? I had Def Tech SM45s some years ago and on my Hegel h160 it sounded very good but on my smaller amp it lost its liveliness and sounded rather dull and flattened the stage. It really needed alot of current to get going.

@@nc3419 not particularly hard to drive but they are definitely benefit from more power as you said!
What do you think movie performance evolution series??
@@leatijoseph828 Super, Great clarity for intelligibility and very Dynamic👍🏽
@@MadAudiofficial hope next time movie demo share
Is your measured FR smoothed at 1/3 octave? Thanks,
Yes is smoothed at max, i think 1/1, not really interested in small variations!
