Fyne Audio F701: 2-way standmount speakers built around a 200 mm IsoFlare driver
The F701 is the standmount model of the F700 range and is made in the UK. It borrows engineering first developed for the F1 Series and fits it into a compact cabinet meant to sit on a support; Fyne Audio names the FS8 stand as its partner. Sold as a pair.
The drive unit is a single 200 mm IsoFlare point source design, pairing a multi-fibre cone for bass and midrange with a compression tweeter whose magnesium dome measures 25 mm. The reflex port fires towards the floor and incorporates the BassTrax low-frequency diffuser with its Tractrix profile. Cabinets are made by hand and finished in gloss piano lacquer.
