2-way floorstanding loudspeaker with a 300 mm IsoFlare driver
Vintage Classic XII is a 2-way floorstanding loudspeaker from the Vintage Classic range. Its generous cabinet size recalls the big domestic loudspeakers of the 1970s; Fyne Audio suggests it for the largest rooms. Sold as a pair.
On the outside it shows a large rectangular cabinet, a walnut veneer and a black baffle with a strong visual presence. The structure is high-density fibreboard, braced internally. The 300 mm IsoFlare point source unit, fitted with a FyneFlute surround, pairs a multi-fibre cone for bass and midrange with a compression tweeter using a 75 mm titanium alloy dome; the magnet is a ferrite type. The reflex port fires downwards and works with the BassTrax Tractrix diffuser.

Technical data
The crossover operates at 750 Hz, using second-order filters on both the low-pass and the high-pass side. The adjustments act between 750 Hz and 26 kHz (high frequencies) and between 2.5 and 5 kHz (presence). The cabinet measures 948 x 550 x 421 mm (height x width x depth) and weighs 54.5 kg: size and weight apply to one loudspeaker. For anyone adding a super tweeter, the data sheet gives its distance from the cabinet's front edge: 130 mm for S-Trax, 106 mm for SuperTrax.
Finishes
The loudspeaker is offered in the Walnut finish, with a walnut veneer and a black baffle.
