[quote user="oxric"] As to why people are interested in the 16 ohms drivers, that is only true of some. The idea is that if the Vitavox S2s are being used, and a single amplifier to drive the different channels, it seems to make sense to go for 1...

OK, I think I need to help to poor Rakesh to sell his Fanes. If he do not find his 50 buyers then he will be suffer from need to buy all of them as the ugly Fane people will not give him a break, selling o him as many drivers as he has managed t...

I am with great pleasure observe the craziness that “rakeshpoorun” created around the buy of a Fane’s new production run of Studio 8M drivers. Sure, he created commendable activity. I am sure his definition of Audio implies 6 moths of administra...

According to my London contact the British miniatures Fane Acoustic is gone to dark. The remaining inventory was scraped by Eminence and the Fane is no more.
Over the years Fane made some interning things: guitar cone drivers, compression drivers, r...

As I mentioned above, I talked to the manager of Fane International and asked for further assurances in writing that these new drivers would use exactly the same parts as the vintage drivers. I am quoting from the email, and I hope this will provide...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Back when Fane were still in business, I ordered a pair in 16O (I don't know if there is a theoretical best choice between the two for horn loading... Any thoughts ? However, the 8O model will require a smaller coil in th...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]Do I understand correctly: AG used Fane 8Ms in the Trios upper bass horn?[/quote] Oh, no! AG in Trio’s upperbass horn used similar 8” driver with 103 sensitivity. That driver was bad and it made me to look for a replacemen...

[quote user="be"]Both the Fane and the Goto where used as compression drivers, so there where no principal differences of use. [/quote]
Wow, who made such experiment? Bring this person to my forum, it would be interesting to interview him! I still d...

Romy,

[quote user="oxric"] You have often questioned the nature of my relationship with Fane. There is none but as this project comes close to a final conclusion, I would say there have been moments when Fane have been less than helpful. They had never men...

There is absolutely nothing in Fane 8M specifications that is responsible for the diver sound. So, what is the purpose to ask about the new specifications?One might think that someone can use “specifications” as an assu...

HI AllFirst post :-)I am reserching a 3 or 4 way horn build and the Fane driver interests me. It looks like Fane have the 8MN available now.http://www.fane-acoustics.com/prod_details.aspx?pid=281How does this driver compare to the 8mn? I will look at...

The old Fane had no money to comeback, apparently someone took them over, I wonder who. The new Fane drivers? I know nothing about them. I did not know the old Fane drivers. I have only 24” woofers, 5M and 8M. The CRESCENDO series was available with ...

Romy,Very briefly. I am wasting my time writing this response, and probably yours as well, but let me again, as you say, bite the bait and respond anyway.[quote user="Romy the Cat"]

[quote user="oxric"]….However, as I have said previously, my interest in Fane is strictly limited to this production run and nothing more sinister as you seem to insinuate. On the other hand, you had no problem being quoted on PurePower's site as a u...

Anyhow, it is interesting how the new 25 users that get those Studio 8M will use them. I wish something “new” would derive from all of it…[/quote]Speaking only for myself, I am planning to use the Fane 8M in a pair of 11...

It looks like the hornresp-heads over DIYAudio.com got their Fane Studios and it looks like they like it. Some of them not realize that Fane 8M is sort of DSET Trojan Horns as they will not be able to defeat Fane’s VC inductance with single serial co...

It keep going and going…
A few years back Fane closed down the done but it looks like they are back. The new website is constantly updated and the new product lines are introduced. I think when Fane went out of business last year then I think Eminen...

Well, I do not care one way or another and I truly have no “concern”. I have my drivers; I think I have some spare – so why would I care about new productions. It is very possible that the new productions will be identical to the old production or ev...

Yes, I did not realize that the price of £225 is for a PAIR; usually price is given per driver. I guess the £225 per pair is not and of the world but I still insist to pay 65 cents per 1 Euro as it use to do… In past I n...
