The Fyne Audio Vintage Classic VIII SM is a 8" Standmounted Classic speaker in a vintage style cabinet and built in Scotland. Imagine an Open Fire, glass of Single Malt (Insert your favourite tipple) and listening to Nina Simone and you get the vibe. There is an openess and ease to a large drive unit and Fyne Audio have got the pedigree to produce a clean, big sounding speaker that doesnt take up alot of space.
Employing a host of modern design elements perfected in the 500SP and 700 models, the Vintage Classic series might look like a 70s classic, but it is bang up to date and very easy to live with.
Taking us back to the golden days of traditional ‘bookshelf’ loudspeaker design, the Vintage Classic VIII SM standmount model brings all the nostalgic looks and rich performance of the Vintage Classic Series to a compact and easy to integrate loudspeaker. True to the series, the rectangular cabinets are hand-finished with walnut veneer and a deep black baffle, with gold trim and ample design cues from the 1970s. Alongside the 250mm (8”) IsoFlare driver, the design incorporates a dedicated BassTrax porting implementation designed to deliver the very best performance from the 360 degrees LF wavefront while mounted above the floor level on stands. Vintage Classic VIII SM delivers simple, beautiful, and classic looks with a truly contemporary loudspeaker performance.
