Read moreThe F1-8S by Fyne Audio, a culmination of expert engineering led by Dr. Paul Mills, emphasizes compact luxury with its refined 8” driver housed within a decadent lacquered burr walnut cabinet, perfectly suited for smaller listening environments. This model integrates a 25mm magnesium dome compression tweeter aligned with an 8” IsoFlare driver, providing a seamless high-frequency response that extends beyond 34kHz, ensuring realistic sounds and immersive listening experiences. This speaker is notable for its deep bass capabilities, reaching down to 30Hz through the use of a twin cavity BassTrax ported design, enhancing the overall audio depth.
The high sensitivity of 91dB/W of the F1-8S supports a wide dynamic range, compatible with a range of amplifiers, from single ended triode valve types to powerful solid state units. The meticulous crossover design tailored by the team guarantees that the speaker performs optimally in various room sizes and placements. Additionally, the user-adjustable potentiometer controls for high-frequency energy and presence allow customization of sound to suit individual preferences and acoustic environments. Handcrafted in the UK, the F1-8S not only sounds exceptional but also makes a bold visual statement in any audiophile’s space.
