Fasten your seatbelts, the F502SP are a thrill ride

Floorstanding stereo speakers 3,03,900 Sonus Faber Lumina V Classy Italian floorstanders that have plenty of charm

The ‘SP’ in the name stands for Special Production, which is Fyne Audio’s way of saying that these speakers are upgraded from the basic product. We’re not talking minor tweaks either, as the price difference between the standard F502 floorstanders and our review pair of the Fyne Audio F502SP shows.

Essentially, Fyne Audio’s engineers have upgraded pretty much everything on the standard model while keeping to the same basic design and dimensions. Think of it as extreme ‘hot-rodding’. All SP models are hand-built in the UK, which accounts for some of the price differential too.

The standard F502 drivers are replaced by new designs that are derived from those used in the company’s high-end F700 range. Consider that the equivalent floorstander in the F700 range, the F702, comes in at around double the price of the F502SP and you will understand why sharing similar drive units is such a big thing for the cheaper product.

Pro-Ject nails the affordable Bluetooth turntable recipe

There are some combinations that work beautifully, even if you wouldn't necessarily consider putting them together in the first place. Beans on toast is an odd combination when you think about it, as is surf and turf, while carrots in a cake has no right to be as good as it is. Mixing poached eggs with smoked salmon is essentially combining poultry and fish, but no one complains when a bougie brunch spot has Eggs Royale on the menu, do they?
