Fyne Audio introduces F702SP and F703SP loudspeakers
The company explains the: “F1 Series IsoFlare drivers, F1 Series BassTrax porting system and its sandwich aluminium plinth architecture give the F702SP and F703SP a significant performance upgrade over the standard F700 Series models. Internally, upgraded electronics and Deep Cryogenic Treatment of the entire crossover in Fyne’s own cryo-chamber in Glasgow, alongside the best available internal cabling from Neotech and terminals from WBT, make this Fyne’s highest-performance UK-built SP models to date.”
In the F703SP, the IsoFlare point-source driver has been ported over from the F1-10S, with the same Neodymium HF magnet system and 76mm titanium dome. The conductive nature of the magnet is claimed to minimise distortion by damping voice coil inductance losses, resulting in lower distortion and more even frequency response for improved high-frequency performance. The F702SP uses the driver from the F1-8S, with a different HF waveguide to best align the HF dispersion pattern with the F702SP cabinet.
Internally, the new F700SP Series crossovers have redesigned circuit topography and components trickled down from the F1 series. That includes ClarityCap high-grade capacitors, Neotech’s PC-OCC wiring and WBT Nextgen 0703 terminals.
The 2.5-way F702SP includes a 200mm IsoFlare point midrange/bass driver, FyneFlute surround with 25mm magnesium dome compression tweeter and 200mm multi-fibre midrange/bass FyneFlute surround. Sensitivity is claimed to be 92dB into 8ohm loads.
Meanwhile, the F703SP increases the tweeter to 75mm and the midrange/bass drivers from 200mm to 250mm for improved 94dB sensitivity (into 8ohm). “The most visually striking upgrade over the standard F702 and F703 models in the SP Series is the heavyweight F1 grade machined aluminium plinths. This massive double-layer design forms part of the BassTrax porting system, where the cabinet’s LF port fires downwards onto a Tractrix profile cone to create 360° bass energy radiation. The result is a smoother LF response with more forgiving room integration. The plinth features M12 threaded support cones, adjustable from above for easy levelling,” Fyne explains.
In addition to the F700 Series standard Piano Gloss Black, Piano Gloss Walnut and Piano Gloss White finish options, the new F702SP and F703SP will also be available in a Satin Natural Walnut veneer. Prices are £12,000 for the F702SP and £15,000 for the F703SP (all finishes).
