Dr Paul Mills and his development team have distilled Fyne Audio’s 8” driver and a bespoke crossover design into its most luxurious cabinet yet to meet the demand for the smaller listening room. Combined with the twin cavity BassTrax ported cabinet, the F1-8S produces an enhanced bass reaching down to 30Hz. Featuring a 25mm magnesium dome compression tweeter, the 8” IsoFlare driver offers a seamless, time aligned HF response to over 34kHz for ultimate realism and listener engagement. The F1-8S’s high sensitivity (91dB/W) ensures exceptional dynamic range and compatibility with the widest range of amplifiers from single ended triode valve models to the highest power solid state designs. The BassTrax porting and high quality potentiometer controls for HF energy and presence ensure the F1-8S will deliver optimum performance irrespective of room size or placement. Designed, hand crafted and hand finished at Fyne Audio’s UK manufacturing facility the sumptuous lacquered burr walnut finish of the F1-8S offers a bold statement in loudspeaker design for the audiophile with limited space.
