SVS has been named the official subwoofer partner for Reel Sound Distribution and high-end audio innovator Metaxas & Sins, providing expertly matched low-frequency support for the new Prinz electrostatic speakers.
Metaxas & Sins has long been celebrated for crafting speakers and audio equipment that merge state-of-the-art acoustic engineering with bold artistic design — described by the brand as “high-end audio sculptures.” Under the leadership of Kostas Metaxas, a revered recording engineer, designer, and artist, each speaker is meticulously handcrafted in the Netherlands.
Finding the perfect synergy
“Kostas has historically avoided pairing his electrostatic speakers with subwoofers because of the inherent difficulty in achieving perfect synergy between panel and sub. However, SVS subwoofers’ extraordinary precision and performance have changed the game,” said Jeff Garshon, President of Reel Sound Distribution, exclusive distributor of Metaxas & Sins in the U.S. “Together, we’ve created an electrostatic speaker system that will captivate even the most discerning audiophiles.”
As part of this groundbreaking partnership, custom equalization presets will be designed to integrate specific SVS subwoofers—such as the SVS 3000 Micro—with the Prinz model. These presets ensure seamless blending, enhancing the speakers’ ability to reproduce frequencies well beyond the limits of human perception.

Ideal companion for the Prinz
The SVS 3000 Micro, celebrated for its compact form factor and exceptional sealed cabinet design, is the ideal companion for the Prinz, enabling listeners to experience the depth, control, and musicality essential for true high-fidelity performance. Electrostatic speakers like the Prinz excel at delivering lifelike clarity and instantaneous transient response. Coupled with SVS’s cutting-edge subwoofer technology, this pairing elevates the listening experience to unprecedented heights.
“SVS subwoofers have become the gold standard for delivering pinpoint-accurate low frequencies that blend effortlessly with any loudspeaker,” said Gary Yacoubian, President of SVS. “Partnering with Metaxas & Sins—who create some of the most visually and sonically inspiring speakers in the world—is a testament to the versatility and precision of our subwoofers.”
Prinz represents latest evolution
The Prinz electrostatic speakers are the latest evolution of Kostas Metaxas’ iconic Emperor electrostatic speakers, introduced nearly three decades ago. The new series incorporates advanced CNC manufacturing techniques and cutting-edge electronic components to deliver a more transparent, efficient, and modular design. This allows for seamless upgrades, future-proofing the investment for discerning listeners.
Garshon noted, “This partnership is not just about combining exceptional products—it’s about redefining what’s possible in high-performance audio. The modularity and meticulous craftsmanship of Metaxas & Sins, paired with the superior engineering of SVS subwoofers, create a truly transformative listening experience.”
