2 TECHNOLOGY
Our experienced team of acoustic and
product design engineers have been in the
loudspeaker industry for very many years.
Since coming together to form Fyne Audio,
they have been augmenting their existing
skills and developing new technologies
to ensure that we can offer best in class
performance through technical innovation
and advanced manufacturing techniques.
The new Fyne Vintage Series takes the
cutting-edge modern technology first
developed by Dr Paul Mills for the award-
winning F1 Series and distils it into timeless
and distinctive period designs with a
modern twist, that has influenced his
journey to the industry leading expert he is
today.
ISOFLARE™ POINT SOURCE DRIVER
Fyne Audio’s IsoFlare™ driver is a point
source system whereby the bass / midrange
driver shares a common centre with the
high frequency unit. Providing outstanding
stereo imaging even off axis, energy
is radiated isotropically with constant
directivity following the flare of the driver
cone. Sound is produced emanating from a
single point.
To fully optimise the driver performance,
every aspect of this meticulous design has
been considered. Eliminating unwanted
vibrations which would be detrimental
to the sound quality, our IsoFlare™ point
source drivers are built around a custom
tooled rigid cast aluminium chassis.
A vented rear chamber in the substantial
Neodymium HF magnet places low
frequency resonance well below the
crossover region. Pushing the break up
mode well above the level of human
hearing, the highly rigid 75mm titanium
alloy high frequency diaphragm delivers a
smooth and extended response, while a
copper shorting ring provides low distortion.
The unique geometry of the high frequency
unit’s waveguide provides a flat frequency
response and avoids internal reflections.
The HF diaphragm provides a natural and
unstressed performance, terminated by
a Mylar surround to optimally terminate
energy. Such a large diaphragm allows a very
low crossover frequency of 750Hz to the
bass / midrange cone, ensuring much of the
vocal range is handled by the tweeter.
The HF unit annular waveguide has a
computer optimised expansion rate and
geometry to provide flat frequency response
and avoid internal reflections, while the
high power edgewound aluminium HF voice
coil on Kapton® former eliminates thermal
compression.
On the low frequency section, the
FyneFlute™ surround effectively terminates
cone energy, without time-smearing. A
multifibre paper cone gives natural sounding
midrange and clean transient behaviour,
while the high power LF motor system uses
ferrite magnet, with rectangular copper
voice coil on an aluminium former, to aid
power dissipation. A copper shorting ring
on the pole piece reduces eddy currents,
reducing midrange distortion tenfold.
