The F500SP, originating from the renowned F500 series, is the smallest loudspeaker in the UK's Special Production series, meticulously crafted to a compact design. The standout feature of this model is its Special Production IsoFlare driver that is an advanced adaptation from the acclaimed F700 series. This enhancement not only upgrades the acoustic performance but also integrates a uniquely tuned crossover and an enhanced BassTrax port system. A distinguishing characteristic is the 6-inch SP IsoFlare driver that ensures a full-range, point-source audio reproduction, providing exceptional detail and superior imaging capabilities typical of a class-leading loudspeaker.

The driver comprises a multi-fibre cone supported by a twin-magnet motor system that elevates bass outputs to remarkable levels. This is further refined by the FyneFlute roll surround, which effectively mitigates cone resonances at the driver’s termination, thus enriching the audio quality. Low-frequency sounds are expertly managed through a down-firing port that feeds into the state-of-the-art BassTrax Tractrix diffuser system. This setup not only smoothens the bass response but also facilitates flexible room integration.

The bi-wire connection panel of the F500SP is thoughtfully designed with an additional fifth terminal. This terminal is specifically added to ground the driver chassis, thereby neutralizing RF interference possibly emanating from the amp or cables. Each aspect of the F500SP speaks volumes about attention to detail – from its anodized aluminum plinth and diamond-cut aluminum driver trim to the aesthetically pleasing deep gloss walnut veneer finish. Altogether, the F500SP stands as Fyne Audio’s most approachably priced premium loudspeaker crafted in the UK, offering a compelling blend of advanced technology and elegant design.
