Tall, slim, and elegantly designed, the Vintage Classic VIII steps up from the SM model by utilizing a larger floorstanding cabinet to produce a fuller, richer, and more engaging auditory experience. Faithful to the esteemed aesthetics of the Vintage Classic Series, the cabinet of the VIII model showcases luxurious walnut veneer panels accented with striking baffle details. These include anodised gold trims and analogue control knobs arranged on a panel that also displays frequency response graphs, enhancing both functionality and visual appeal.

Equipped with the 200mm (8") Vintage Classic IsoFlare driver featuring a FyneFlute roll surround as well as a proven 25mm magnesium dome compression tweeter, the VIII combines classic charm with cutting-edge audio technology. Despite its relatively compact size, the speaker incorporates a scaled-down form of the BassTrax porting system, which is designed to yield impressive bass performance. Completing its retro yet modern aesthetic, the speaker is adorned with the Vintage Classic series’ signature woven cloth grille, ensuring that it blends seamlessly into any decor while delivering impeccable sound quality.
