I was looking at this seat asking myself are the built in speakers worth it? I mean, I have a fantastic Denon/Polk sound system already. But what I was really interested in was a self contained system that could be placed anywhere without depending on a separate sound system. I first connected it to my home theater system, using my 55" TV as the monitor. This bypassed the seat's sound system, so I could make an honest comparison with the seat's self contained sound versus home theater sound. After hearing the two setups, I preferred the Playseat SV sound experience to the HT setup. It definitely was more immersive, as advertised. Close proximity to the speakers allows you to experience all the subtle sounds along with well, more immersion.
I like the wheel platform coming from the chair the SV model uses - I had no obstacle problem of moving my foot from accelerator to brake some have complained about when the platform is attached from the pedal side of the Playseat. The chair is comfortable, but I would appreciate building this chair with thicker foam, or even memory foam (why not, the chair is top class priced).
The tubular steel supports fit together easily, and the locking mechanism holding the paired tubes together is effective. The tolerances are not exactly tight though, and I am considering tightening them slightly using the material half of Velcro. The spec for weight tolerance in this seat is another selling point (300 lbs max).
If you really want another notch of game immersion, I recommend pairing this with the Playseat Pro Kit TV stand with its own monitor. It really puts that cockpit feel right into the game. This also allows you to place it anywhere you would like, as long as an electrical outlet is nearby.
The Playseat SV has given me a top rate simulator gaming experience. I was willing to pay the additional money for it, and I am glad I did.
