Fyne SuperTrax SuperTweeter (Pair)
Taxes & Shipping Included
Music’s true beauty emerges not just from its bass depth, the intricacies of its midrange, or the crispness of its treble. Our innovative time-aligned, omnidirectional super tweeter ensures that the energy reflected within a space harmonises with the direct sound, enhancing the perceived spaciousness and airiness of any audio setup. Available in Walnut to match our Vintage Series or Piano Gloss Black, SuperTrax elevates your listening experience beyond the conventional, by broadening your speakers’ frequency response well beyond the typical range of human hearing. This broadening adds to your music a heightened sense of tonal fidelity, enhanced dynamic detail, and an expanded spatial feel, even amplifying the richness of the lower frequencies. The common practice of integrating a subwoofer to boost bass and improve musical phase accuracy is mirrored in the high-frequency domain by our super tweeter. It’s this augmentation of phase accuracy across the spectrum that maintains the integrity of the music’s harmonics, playing a crucial role in what we “feel”. Adjustable feet are available on the High Gloss Black version or as an optional extra on the Vintage version to help level the SuperTweeter should your speaker have a sloping top, like our F700 Series.
The essence of music lies not only in the depth of its bass, the texture and details of its mids, but also in the clarity of its highs. Tastefully crafted to echo Vintage Series’ design influences, SuperTrax transcends the traditional audio experience, extending the frequency range of your loudspeakers several octaves above the usual limit of human hearing. This extension enriches your music with increased tonal accuracy, a more pronounced transient response, and a sense of air and space, enhancing even the lowest frequencies. We are used to the concept of adding a subwoofer which not only adds bass but improves the phase accuracy of the music. Adding a super tweeter does the same at high frequencies, and it’s the extended phase accuracy which preserves the music’s harmonic structure, that’s a big part of what we “feel”.
We know the higher the frequency the more likely beaming like a torch can occur. To overcome this we moved beyond the conventional forward firing super tweeter. The SuperTrax’s omnidirectional design radiates energy through 360 degrees, enveloping you in a sphere of coherent sound. This is made possible by our patented SuperTrax tractrix radiator with its revolutionary approach to sound dispersion.
No Frequency Beaming
Forward firing devices will have a very narrow dispersion at these ultrasonic frequencies, which means they will beam like a torch. The 360 degree design of the SuperTrax means there will be no beaming but instead an immersive sound stage.
Even Response At Any Angle
In a typical room, a high proportion of sound perceived by the human ear is reflection generated by the off axis response of the speaker. Therefore any enhancement with a super tweeter is best served by an omnidirectional device with even response at any angle, placed at the acoustic centre of the main driver.
Patented Tractrix profile
Known to maintain a 90 degree angle at each intersection of the expanding wavefront. The plane acoustic wavefront generated by the dome is translated into a spherical wavefront into the room, where it meets the diffuser.
Ability to time Align
The addition of a SuperTrax, when time aligned to the acoustic centre of the IsoFlare, will reduce the high frequency phase error by moving the low pass roll off point much higher.
Revealing Harmonic Detail
Every loudspeaker or audio device exhibits a low pass filter function and consequently acts as a frequency independent time delay in the pass band, otherwise known as a linear phase response.
To reduce the low frequency phase error, we would add a subwoofer, which does more than just add bass. It is this reduction of phase error that is one of the main benefits of a well integrated subwoofer. Music with no apparent bass content will sound more natural when this error is removed.
Likewise, the addition of a super tweeter, time aligned to the acoustic centre of the IsoFlare, will reduce the high frequency phase error by moving the low pass roll off point much higher. So even if we ignore for now the perception of sound above 20kHz, the addition of a super tweeter will better preserve the harmonic relationship between instruments and is apparent down to low frequencies. This is a very important fact which is not intuitive.
Improve your existing system
The SuperTrax works at its optimum with our IsoFlare point source driver, however any loudspeaker will see improvements in sound.
360 degree experience
By using our patented time aligned omnidirectional super tweeter, reflected energy in the room has the same harmonic structure as the direct on axis energy, thus giving advantages in perceived air and space
Reach 60kHz with our TPCD dome
Aluminium, titanium and magnesium range in order from around 20kHz to 32kHz and whereas considered out of the audio band, this can be perceived as harshness. Our Unique Thin Ply Carbon Diaphragm (TPCD) material allows multiple break up points and higher frequencies to be reached for a more natural sound.
