- FIIO launches new office speakers that are ideal for home studios
- SP5s have an independent amplification and 120 W per speaker
- They will be available for purchase from August 2025 for $ 749 / £ 709
The latest FIIO office speakers are not only for audiophiles: they are also for music manufacturers and other audio pros. This is because they come with important characteristics that are missing at the ordinary house.
The new SP5 active speakers are library or high power office speakers, and if you work with audio, the most important bits are back.
This is where the three-band EQ shelves are found, which allows you to cut certain frequencies to ensure that the sound you get is not colored by the environment in your speakers.
For example, if you need to position your speakers near a wall or other highly reflective surface, you can drop the low and / or ultra-basic frequencies so that you do not work with an unrealistic idea of the amount of bass of your listeners.
This is a continuous problem for me – I have no room to spread out, so all my recording and my mixture occur in a small corner where my speakers must be much closer to a wall and a partition than I want.
Cutting a part of the low -end would improve the precision of what I hear and could make me more popular with neighbors.
FIIO SP5 in active speakers: Key characteristics and price
SP5 speakers have entries to, RCA, XLR and USB-C for analog and digital sources, and there is an independent volume memory to keep personalized level parameters for each input.
Each speaker has its own dedicated 120 W diet to guarantee a coherent power service, reduce cross-channel interference and provide what Fiio dit is “a level of sound stability generally reserved for component systems”.
The four-channel amplifier turned 60W in the 5.25-inch Woofer Rohacell, which is made from the same material as the cones in some high-end speakers, and is designed to offer tight and reactive bass and an ultra-affable distortion. And the tweeter improved by the rear cavity obtains 20 W for smooth summits.
In addition to the adjustment of the bass and the treble to three bands mentioned above to settle the speakers in their environment, the Companion iOS and Android application offers the 10-band parametric equation.
There is also Bluetooth, including the LDAC and APTX adaptation, which means that you can use these speakers for relaxed listening and to check how your songs will sound during their streaming.
The new SP5 speakers will be sold in August 2025 with a price of $ 749 / £ 709. This is converted to around € 820 / $ 1,459 in.
