The Fyne Audio F500SP is the entry point to Fyne Audio's Special Production loudspeaker range: a compact, two-way stand-mount bookshelf speaker designed and hand-built in the United Kingdom, combining a 6-inch (150mm) SP IsoFlare point source driver with Fyne's premium BassTrax Tractrix downfiring port system and a crossover tuned from the technology of the prestigious F700 Series. ProHiFi is an authorised Fyne Audio dealer in India, and the F500SP is available with full manufacturer warranty and official after-sales support.
The IsoFlare driver at the heart of the F500SP places a 25mm magnesium dome compression tweeter at the centre of a multi-fibre bass and midrange cone, both sharing a single point source acoustic origin. This coaxial arrangement ensures that treble and bass information originates from the same point in space at all listening distances and angles, producing an unusually coherent and stable stereo image that is difficult to achieve with a conventional two-driver layout.
The FyneFlute roll surround reduces cone resonances at the driver termination, and a twin-magnet motor system with neodymium magnets provides the control and extension that gives the F500SP its full-range 42Hz to 34kHz frequency response. Bass energy is channelled through a downfiring BassTrax Tractrix port onto a precision-shaped diffuser beneath the cabinet, smoothing the low-frequency output and making the speaker relatively forgiving of placement on a stand. The Cryo-Lite treated crossover uses a second-order low pass and first-order high pass network, and the bi-wire connection panel includes a fifth terminal for grounding the driver chassis to eliminate amplifier or cable-borne RF interference. Finishing details include an anodised aluminium plinth, diamond-cut aluminium driver trim, and premium gloss or veneer cabinet options. Hi-Fi Choice gave it a Recommended award, AV Forums an Highly Recommended, and Home Cinema Choice a Best Buy.

Why Consider the Fyne Audio F500SP
The F500SP is the right choice for listeners who want a genuinely high-performance bookshelf speaker that does not require a complex room setup to sound its best. The IsoFlare point source driver produces the kind of coherent, stable imaging that is a noticeable step above conventional two-way designs at comparable prices, and the BassTrax downfiring port system gives the F500SP a smoother, more room-friendly low-frequency character than a rear or front-ported alternative. AV Forums noted it delivers sonic imagery, tonal realism, and refinement that the price does not suggest, and Home Cinema Choice confirmed its versatility across both music and cinema use. Hand-built in the UK with premium crossover components, anodised hardware, and genuine veneer or high-gloss finish options, it is Fyne Audio's most affordable entry into their Special Production tier.
Ideal for
- Listeners wanting a point source bookshelf speaker with stable, coherent stereo imaging
- Rooms where stand placement flexibility matters and rear-ported speakers are awkward to position
- Amplifiers from 30W to 120W; suits both valve and solid-state systems at 8 ohms, 90dB
- Two-channel music systems looking for a UK-made Special Production loudspeaker at this price
- Home cinema front or surround use alongside the F501SP or F502SP in a matched Fyne SP system
- Those who want bi-wiring capability and RF-shielded terminals in a premium stand-mount package
