Shortly after reworking its F500 entry-level series, to offer a more attractively priced F500E home cinema version on some models, Scottish manufacturer Fyne Audio is now updating its F500 series to the F500S.
Still featuring the coaxial IsoFlare drivers for which the brand is renowned, the F500S also retains its BassTrax Tractrix bass dispersion system, but with an optimized cabinet and port to reduce resonance and vibration. The crossovers are also upgraded with some of the technologies derived from developments in the F700 series.
Superior to the F500E models, the new F500S are also designed for users who want to use these speakers for hi-fi and home-cinema listening. In addition to the compact F500S version (950 € per pair, no price variation with the F500) and two two-and-a-half-way floorstanding speakers F501S (2 000 € per pair) and F502S (2 800 € per pair), a central or side-mounted F500S LCR model (600 € per unit) will be available like the others from now. They will then be joined by a small compact F5S (700 € per pair).
All that’s left is to listen!
