Fyne Audio Say….
The 1970s was an iconic decade. Not just for the music but also for how we could enjoy it at home through HiFi. New technology and engineering techniques led to some ground-breaking audio products that would achieve classic status in the future. It was a truly vintage time for audiophiles.
Built with a traditional rectangular cabinet that is wider than it is deep, the Fyne Vintage Classic comes in four distinct models, VII SM, VII, X and XII. Hand finished in Walnut real wood veneer with contrasting black baffle, Classic incorporates minimalist analogue controls for personal room tuning and Fyne’s BassTrax port diffuser to extract outstanding bass performance from the traditional cabinet geometry.
At the heart of the Classic models is the latest IsoFlare driver with FyneFlute surround mating the multi-fibre Low Frequency drive unit cone with a 75mm titanium dome (25mm magnesium dome on VIII and VIII BS) and ferrite motor compression tweeter. The combination delivers natural Isotropic sound radiation, giving a truly spherical and time-aligned wave front for incredible imaging even off axis. Each Classic crossover uses carefully selected components optimised for each model and lossless fine tuning of the sound via the front mounted controls.
