FiiO's SP3 active desktop speakers are compact, promise a powerful and immersive listening experience, and are the perfect partner for the R7.
FiiO's engineers have designed the SP3 from the ground up, delivering a product that they say — whilst only 163 x 120 x 132mm in size to match the company's Applause Award-winning R7 — brings an engaging, dynamic sound with impressive width and height.
Delivering 2 x 30W and 65Hz — 20kHz (STD±2db) claimed frequency response from a 3.5-inch carbon-fibre midwoofer and a 1-inch silk tweeter. FiiO states the carbon-fibre composition of the midwoofer ensures a rapid transient response and reduced non-linear distortion. We are also told that FiiO's audio engineers have employed a powerful Asymmetrical Magnetic Circuit system with an auxiliary magnet added to the centre of the SP3 to improve the strength of the magnetic field. This, says the company, ensures the reduction of non-linear distortion across the whole frequency band.
Meanwhile, the SP3's silk tweeter has been “precisely angled for lossless transmission of sound waves”, with the speaker's specially designed horizontal striped pattern diffusing sound effectively throughout a room. Additionally, the tweeter features a copper-plated aluminium KSV voice coil, enabling delivery of “accurate and clean” high frequencies, even when listening off-axis.
The SP3 is rounded off by a double-diffused S-shaped porting tube, resulting in fast bass transients and superior audio quality at lower frequencies. The active speakers feature both stereo RCA and 3.5mm line-in connections.
The FiiO SP3 comes supplied with two sets of silicone stands: One set allows the speakers to be positioned with 0-degree elevation, whilst the other gives the SP3 a 7° front-facing incline. As the supplied stands are silicone, they also act as vibration absorbers.
Gamers, in particular, will appreciate the SP3's LED underlighting with access to twenty-four colours via a button - or you can turn them off.
The FiiO SP3 speakers are available now in black or white, priced at £289/ €299.
