Main trade-off
SVS Prime Wireless Pro Powered Speakers
Auxiliary takes priority over RCA. The two sockets are not independently selectable analog sources.
Head-to-head
SVS Prime Wireless Pro vs Edifier S1000W: SVS simplifies TV control, Edifier keeps two RCA players selectable
The short answer
Choose SVS when shared TV control and eligible physical presets matter. It adds HDMI ARC and six saved choices, with explicit service exclusions. Choose S1000W when two RCA line players or a coaxial source should stay connected directly. Edifier has two selectable RCA pairs, while SVS auxiliary overrides RCA. Both supply network music and both lack USB audio and a phono stage. SVS’s 228 mm body is also about 67 mm shallower.
Before you choose
The reasoning and the trade-offs
A TV used by several people can justify a different connection than music needs
Both handle network music, but SVS adds HDMI ARC and supported TV-volume control. Edifier’s optical path does not provide the HDMI CEC route. If family members use television without managing the music system, SVS can simplify that daily handoff after compatible setup. If the pair mostly serves records and network music, the television-control advantage may rarely be used. Check actual habits and TV compatibility before treating it as essential.
What this is based on
Network capability shared, HDMI control distinct, applied to a multi-user television routine. No universal CEC compatibility is assumed.
Main trade-off
Edifier S1000W
No HDMI ARC or USB audio, and the body is 294.64 mm deep.

What matters in practice
The differences that matter
A TV used by several people can justify a different connection than music needs
Both handle network music, but SVS adds HDMI ARC and supported TV-volume control. Edifier’s optical path does not provide the HDMI CEC route. If family members use television without managing the music system, SVS can simplify that daily handoff after compatible setup. If the pair mostly serves records and network music, the television-control advantage may rarely be used. Check actual habits and TV compatibility before treating it as essential.
How we reached this conclusion
Network capability shared, HDMI control distinct, applied to a multi-user television routine. No universal CEC compatibility is assumed.
The extra analog socket on SVS does not replace Edifier’s second RCA input
A preamplified turntable and analog CD player can each occupy one of S1000W’s two selectable RCA pairs. SVS has RCA and auxiliary, but auxiliary overrides RCA when both connect. That means the same leave-both-ready plan does not transfer directly. An optical output on the CD player can avoid the conflict, so inspect it before choosing an external switch or dismissing SVS. With two analog-only players, Edifier’s routing is the clearer fit.
How we reached this conclusion
Explicit input priority versus separate selectable RCA pairs crossed with two line-level sources.
The source you use once a week can still be the one that blocks replacement
A coax-only CD transport plugs directly into S1000W. SVS has optical but no coaxial input, so that exact device needs a compatible conversion or another output. The upgrade’s network features do not solve the transport connection. At the same time, SVS saves 66.64 mm of body depth, which may matter on shallow furniture. Compare the converter and cable plan with the physical space saved, rather than assuming a smaller speaker always creates a simpler complete system.
How we reached this conclusion
294.64 − 228 = 66.64 mm depth, crossed with coaxial input availability and a conditional legacy source.

Meaningful differences
What changes the fit
| What changes | SVS Prime Wireless Pro Powered Speakers | Edifier S1000W | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Television | HDMI ARC with supported TV control | Optical without HDMI ARC | SVS can reduce the separate-remote chore for shared TV use. |
| Analog players | RCA or auxiliary, with auxiliary priority | Two selectable RCA line pairs | Edifier can keep two line players independently ready. |
| Coaxial transport | Optical, no coaxial input | Optical and coaxial | Edifier can avoid a converter for a coax-only source. |
| Repeat music | Six eligible physical presets | Built-in network music without the SVS six-preset arrangement | The actual service decides whether the preset feature helps. |
| Cabinet depth | 228 mm | 11.6 inches, or 294.64 mm | SVS saves 66.64 mm of body depth before rear clearance. |
What you give up
Every choice has a cost
If you choose SVS Prime Wireless Pro Powered Speakers
- Bluetooth, AirPlay and Chromecast cannot be saved as SVS presets.
If you choose Edifier S1000W
- A turntable without a preamp still needs a suitable phono stage, just as it does with SVS.
Recommendation switch
The decision flips if...
TV control and eligible physical recall are the recurring chores
Choose SVS Prime Wireless Pro Powered Speakers. SVS supplies HDMI ARC and the preset buttons.
Two analog players or a coax-only transport must stay direct
Choose Edifier S1000W. Edifier preserves those source paths.
What matters in practice
Before you choose
You want an easier family TV and music system without making two existing analog players compete for one usable input.
What this comparison cannot tell you
- No measured sound or wireless-reliability ranking. Source compatibility remains more specific than a generic smart-speaker label.
