The cone transforms the beam-like HF output of the driver into a radial 360 degree dispersion, delivering super high-frequency sound in a way which preserves the harmonics and phase response of the point source\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTastefully crafted to echo the real wood veneers, metalwork and sumptuous grain of retro-styled loudspeakers, SuperTrax has been developed with Fyne’s Vintage and Vintage Classic series in mind as perfect partners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlaced on the top surface of each loudspeaker, SuperTrax positioning instructions are supplied with each SuperTrax to attain perfect time-coherent acoustic integration with Vintage model IsoFlare drivers.

This new technology better aligns the performance of the loudspeaker to the instruments it is required to reproduce, ensuring SuperTrax delivers sound closer than ever to how the artist intended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEliminating the break-up modes of metal dome tweeters, the TPCD driver technology with dome structure unique to Fyne Audio, pushes the boundaries of material science in acoustic transducers, enabling extremely extended and highly linear upper-frequency response with extremely low distortion. The 25 mm (1”) driver in SuperTrax has a typical in-room response (+\/-6 dB) from 16 kHz – 60 kHz and is suitable to pair with speakers up to 98dB\/W sensitivity with a +\/-3 dB control for balancing with the main speaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 360 degrees dispersion cone with tractrix profile draws from Fyne’s expertise with its patented BassTrax technology, the 360 degree LF speaker porting system found in all premium Fyne loudspeakers. The SuperTrax design concept achieved a patent in January 2024, adding to Fyne’s growing list of patented technologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuperTrax transcends the traditional audio experience, extending the frequency range of your loudspeakers several octaves above the usual limit of human hearing. This extension enriches your music with increased tonal accuracy, a more pronounced transient response, and a breathing sense of air and space, enhancing even the lowest frequencies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFyne Audio's technical director Dr Paul Mills says, “Musical instruments emit energy well above 50 kHz , once thought to be beyond our perception. Yet, studies by researchers such as Oohashi and Lenhardt have shown that these ultrasonic tones do influence our auditory experience, even if they’re not directly audible. The SuperTrax captures this spectrum and radiates the HF energy through 360 degrees, ensuring you’re not just listening to music, you are feeling it, perceiving it, and sensing it as well.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSupertweeter White Paper\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFyne Audio’s \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1564\/1247\/files\/supertrax-whitepaper-7.pdf?v=1758062977\"\u003eSuperTrax white paper\u003c\/a\u003e, authored by technical director Dr. Paul Mills, demonstrates that musical instruments, speech, and percussion generate significant ultrasonic energy, often extending well past 40 kHz and up to 100 kHz. Research indicates that listeners perceive these components indirectly, through harmonic integrity, phase coherence, and even bone conduction, meaning they influence how we experience music even below the 20 kHz limit of conventional hearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBut aren’t recordings limited to 20 kHz?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s true that CD-quality audio is specified at 44.1 kHz sampling, with a nominal bandwidth of 20 kHz. However, this is not a hard ceiling. Vinyl, tape, and high-resolution digital formats routinely capture ultrasonic energy, and even some CDs allow material to leak above the cut-off depending on the filters used. More importantly, the benefit of SuperTrax is not limited to “playing” ultrasonic tones. By extending the system’s usable bandwidth, the super tweeter corrects high-frequency phase errors, which means the information you can hear is clearer, cleaner, and better timed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSo what is the supertweeter actually reproducing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith high-resolution sources, SuperTrax reproduces real ultrasonic musical information—cymbal crashes, harmonics of strings and brass, and even sibilants in speech. With more bandwidth-limited formats, its role is equally important: it fills in where the main tweeter tails off, so that the combined acoustic response is smoother and more phase-coherent. The main tweeter’s behavior hasn’t changed, but the system as a whole no longer depends solely on its ragged roll-off. Instead, the supertweeter takes over gracefully, maintaining harmonic integrity and reducing smearing that would otherwise creep down into the audible range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Max Amplifier Power:\u003c\/strong\u003e 400 W RMS\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suitable for loudspeakers up to 98 dB\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 Ohm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency Response (-6 dB):\u003c\/strong\u003e 16 kHz to 60 kHz\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDriver:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 mm thin-ply carbon diaphragm (TPCD) with neodymium magnet system\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCrossover:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3rd order high pass 16 kHz, Cryogenically treated\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustments:\u003c\/strong\u003e +\/-3 dB from nominal setting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (HWD):\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.4\" x 5.5\" x 10.1” (86 x 140 x 257 mm)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fyne Audio","offers":[{"title":"Walnut \/ No Cable Kit","offer_id":48275571343544,"sku":"SUPERTRAX WAL","price":4499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Walnut \/ STC1 Premium Cable Kit","offer_id":48288052445368,"sku":"SUPERTRAX WAL+STC1","price":4948.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ No Cable Kit","offer_id":50960610558136,"sku":"SUPERTRAX BLK","price":3999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ STC1 Premium Cable Kit","offer_id":50960610590904,"sku":"SUPERTRAX BLK+STC1","price":4448.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1564\/1247\/files\/VintageSuperTrax3Q.jpg?v=1741629956"},{"product_id":"fyne-audio-s-trax-supertweeter-pair","title":"Fyne Audio S-Trax Supertweeter (pair)","description":"\u003ch1\u003eFyne Audio S-Trax Supertweeter (pair)\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAn omnidirectional supertweeter with gain knob and CryoLite treatment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFyne Audio's S-Trax supertweeter eliminates the narrowly focused beam directionality of traditional supertweeters with 360-degree omnidirectional dispersion.
