An out and out purist audiophile design, the standmount or bookshelf F500 speaker utilises a single 150mm (6″) IsoFlare™ point source driver in a compact, ported cabinet. Offering precise imaging and intimate detailing, the F500 is ideal for small to medium listening rooms. Incorporating a down-firing port, bass energy is evenly dissipated into the room with our BassTrax™ Tractrix diffuser system.

The luxuriously finished, contemporary styled cabinet is available in a choice of dark oak or black oak real wood veneer and piano gloss black or white. Enhancing its aesthetic appeal, it has a gently curved front and rear baffle which additionally benefits the acoustic performance by reducing colouration effects.

Meet the 500 Series

The F500 Series is our premium loudspeakers built around the innovative Fyne Audio IsoFlare point source drive unit. Technical Director, Dr. Paul Mills, and our technical team have many decades of experience in point source driver technology, and they have refined the concept using the latest materials science and cutting-edge engineering processes.

The F500 Series uses a rigid MDF cabinet, wrapped in sumptuous real wood veneers or piano gloss over a rich paint base. Floorstanding models benefit from an MDF plinth with top adjustable spikes for easy levelling, for additional stability and further control over bass performance.

Using trickle-down technology from the F700 Series, the Special Production (SP) models are all hand built and finished at Fyne’s UK factory.

BASSTRAX Port System

The bookshelf and floorstanding models employ an internal, downwards-firing port system. A Tractrix profile diffuser converts port energy to a spherical 360-degree wave front, integrating energy uniformly into the room.

Crossover

Low-loss, laminated core inductors and audiophile-grade polypropylene capacitors are used exclusively throughout the F500 Series crossovers.

Home Theatre

The F500 Series is as impressive with movies as it is music, delivering an incredibly dynamic and lifelike performance.

Point Source Technology

Our proprietary IsoFlare design ensures constant directivity of the wave front generated, providing outstanding stereo imaging even off axis.

Performance

Every aspect of the meticulous design has been considered to optimise driver performance and eliminate unwanted vibrations.

Special Production

Special Production (SP) models distil some of Fyne’s best components and engineering into a unique loudspeaker, hand built in the UK.

Performance

To fully optimise the driver’s performance, every aspect of the meticulous design has been considered. A vented rear chamber in the Neodymium HF magnet places low frequency resonance well below crossover region. The unique geometry of the high frequency unit’s waveguide provides a flat frequency response and avoids internal reflections.
To eliminate unwanted vibrations, which would be detrimental to the sound quality, both the point source driver and the supplementary low frequency driver fitted to the floor standing models, are built around a rigid cast aluminium chassis. Multifibre paper cones are used providing natural sounding midrange and clean transient behaviour. Cone energy is then very effectively terminated using a fluted rubber surround.

Special Production

Special Production (SP) models distil some of Fyne’s best components and engineering into a unique loudspeaker, optimised by our Technical Director Dr Paul Mills and hand built in the UK by our Special Projects team. Improving on the F502, the SP edition uses the premium 200mm (8in) IsoFlare driver and 200mm (8in) bass/mid driver from the F702, featuring rigid multi-fibre cones and FyneFlute roll surrounds. The IsoFlare’s 25mm magnesium compression tweeter has a unique HF wave guide pole piece delivering an incredibly even, full-range frequency response and outstanding musical imaging. The F502SP also benefits from the F700’s advanced crossover components and aluminium sandwich type plinth with BassTrax tractrix profile bass diffuser, re-engineered to precisely tune the F502SP’s more compact cabinet. The result is a stunning, bespoke addition to the F500 series, available in high-gloss black and high gloss white as standard, or in a new, luxurious deep gloss lacquered walnut veneer with diamond machine cut finish on the aluminium chassis.
