Tasked mainly with handling dialogue and usually flanked by larger, more powerful speakers, a centre speaker needs to be able to hold its own, despite restrictions in cabinet shape and position, which is often close to a wall or screen.

With the Fyne Audio F8SP AV surround sound speaker package, the brand brings together two of its most formidable floorstanders from its SP (Special Production) range, which soups up existing products with a wishlist of the company’s high-end innovations.
