With the distinction of being both the smallest and most expensive (taking into account the fact a stand will be needed), the F1.5 is also the smallest member of the F Series that – as the company flagship – extends up to the F1.12 at £28,000. In miniature, the F1.5 has much of the same design thinking. Chief among this is the driver arrangement. This is the only speaker in the group with a concentric tweeter; a 19mm magnesium dome compression unit surrounded by a 125mm ‘Iso Flare’ driver that makes use of a distinctive ‘FyneFlute’ rubber surround.
