{"product_id":"fiio-sp3-high-fidelity-active-desktop-speakers","title":"FiiO SP3 High Fidelity Active Desktop Speakers","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe FiiO SP3 are compact active desktop speakers that aim to make a small speaker sound grand. Each has a 3.5-inch carbon fibre woofer, larger than usual in this class, with a powerful asymmetrical magnet system, and a 1-inch silk dome tweeter that reaches 35kHz. A true 2-way active crossover feeds four channels of Texas Instruments amplification (30W × 2 + 10W × 2), all inside die-cast aluminium cabinets of just 2.35 litres. The SP3 is Hi-Res Audio certified, and the SP3 series has won awards including a CIHE EHA 2024 Gold Award, VGP 2024 Summer and VGP 2025 Summer awards, and Secrets of Home Theater and High Fidelity’s Best of Awards 2024.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-sp3-high-fidelity-active-desktop-speakers-photo-pair.jpg?v=1791318839\" alt=\"FiiO SP3 active desktop speakers in black and white on a desk\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA 3.5-inch carbon fibre woofer\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBigger woofers have a natural advantage in dynamics and soundstage, so FiiO used 3.5-inch drivers to give films and music real scale, even at higher volumes. Carbon fibre is strong, rigid and light: the low weight gives quick transients and the stiffness reduces distortion by suppressing unwanted vibrations. Each fibre is only 0.007mm thick, about a hair’s width, braided for a wrinkle-free diaphragm that resists cracking over years of use. A special damping rubber surround keeps vocals transparent and detailed and the bass fast and controlled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-sp3-high-fidelity-active-desktop-speakers-photo-woofer.jpg?v=1791318845\" alt=\"Cut-away of the FiiO SP3 showing its carbon fibre woofer and tweeter\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo drive it properly, FiiO added an auxiliary magnet at the centre to form an asymmetrical internal and external magnetic circuit, raising the magnetic flux to 1.2 Tesla for a dynamic sound and lower distortion across the range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA 1-inch silk tweeter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere many desktop speakers use a ¾-inch tweeter, the SP3 has a 1-inch silk dome reaching 35kHz. Its KSV copper-clad aluminium voice coil keeps ultra-high frequencies uncompressed even at high volume, for detailed, natural treble that also sounds good off-axis. The soft inner dome absorbs unwanted waves behind the driver, a large rear cavity lets it play down to 800Hz, and the design releases unwanted energy above 20kHz to cut resonance. Magnetic fluid cooling and damping in the tweeter’s magnet help extend and refine the treble.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-sp3-high-fidelity-active-desktop-speakers-photo-tweeter.jpg?v=1791318850\" alt=\"The 1-inch silk dome tweeter of the FiiO SP3\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWaveguides for a wide sweet spot\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tweeter is angled for essentially lossless sound anywhere within ±15° off-axis, so you don’t have to sit in one exact spot, and the horizontal stripes in front of it spread the sound around the room for a bigger soundstage. The included 7° stands tilt the tweeters towards your ears, within the ideal 15° of the listening axis, and their rubber decouples the speakers from the desk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA double-diffused S-shaped port\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter dozens of designs, FiiO developed a double-diffused S-shaped port. Its small cross-section keeps the cabinet compact, the S shape keeps the airflow smooth with minimal turbulence, and damping at both ends reduces noise, for pure, robust bass that brings film sound effects to life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-sp3-high-fidelity-active-desktop-speakers-photo-port.jpg?v=1791318856\" alt=\"Cut-away of the FiiO SP3 cabinet showing its S-shaped port\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTrue active crossover and four-channel amplification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs in professional monitors, an active crossover splits the signal before amplification, at 3.4kHz, chosen to get the best from both drivers. The second-order filter isolates the signals precisely, for less intermodulation distortion, no driver overload and more efficient use of power. Each driver has its own amplifier channel, from two Texas Instruments 3118 class D amplifiers with a low noise floor, and the power supply can deliver up to 100W, backed by two large 4,700µF Nichicon capacitors that minimise ripple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDie-cast metal, lights and quality cables\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cabinets are high-strength die-cast aluminium with uniform internal walls to reduce resonance, and the horizontal stripes on the front reinforce them against vibration at high volume. RGB lights at the base show the status (blue for the RCA input, green for AUX) and, in use, can pulse through 24 colours; a button on the main speaker adjusts the effect or turns it off. FiiO includes a 3.5mm to RCA input cable and an 8-pin cable to link the two speakers, both monocrystalline copper with shielding, so you don’t need to buy extra cables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-sp3-high-fidelity-active-desktop-speakers-photo-cables.jpg?v=1791318861\" alt=\"The 3.5mm to RCA input cable and speaker link cable supplied with the FiiO SP3\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDrivers\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5\" carbon fibre woofer + 1\" silk dome tweeter per speaker\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAmplification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 × TI 3118 class D · 30W × 2 (woofers) + 10W × 2 (tweeters) · active crossover at 3.4kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFrequency response\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e65Hz–20kHz (±2dB)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eImpedance and sensitivity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8Ω · 85dB (1Vrms @ 1kHz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eInputs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRCA · 3.5mm AUX\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCabinet\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDie-cast aluminium, 2.35 litres · 163 × 120 × 132mm · 1.84kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eColours\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack or white\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/FIIOSP3_1000x521_9332a289-a813-42a2-91dd-70151d3879ed.jpg?v=1767185684\" alt=\"White FiiO SP3 speakers either side of a FiiO streamer\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis is the wired SP3, with RCA and 3.5mm inputs.
