What HiFi? Magazine Rated the FS-1 with 5 Stars and here is why...
For portable speakers to achieve Soundscience's goals they need to provide a rich, full sound and be still be small enough to take anywhere. Using the most advanced technology available they are able to bypass the traditional speaker model. Instead of using two drivers (you may have heard of tweeters and woofers these are drivers), Soundscience use a single BMR Inventor Series driver to do the job of both.
This means our speakers can be made much smaller while delivering the same output. But instead of having a detrimental effect on sound quality BMR actually produces a superior sound with better sound dispersion. Frankenspiel designs challenge convention - in their use of line, form and matte black color. From the faceted, almost brutal look of the FS-1. FS-1 is the first speaker designed by Frankenspiel.
Back at the drawing board their intentions were to create top quality PC, Mac and laptop speakers at an affordable price. When the FS-1 won the prestigious What-HiFi?'s "Best Budget Desktop Speakers" we knew they'd achieved their goals. Frankenspiel is all about amazing speakers in unconventional designs and the FS-1 is the genesis of this ethos. Soundscience start by designing all their speakers from the ground up. Beginning with the drivers. All their drivers are custom built for their products. Soundscience believe this demonstrates their commitment to innovation.
