Fives II

Fives II (The Fives II) in Walnut, Ebony, Red Oak is powered bookshelf speakers (announced Jan 2026) featuring an upgraded one-piece BMC baffle with integrated Tractrix horn for reduced resonance and superior sound dispersion. They offer premium sound with Jet Cerametallic™ woofers, Dolby Atmos support and versatile connectivity including HDMI-ARC, Bluetooth 5.4 and Phono, enhanced by Onkyo technology.

Key Features:

- Onkyo-Designed Electronics: The system now utilizes Onkyo's electronics for advanced content processing, precise decoding, and dynamic optimization.

- Dolby Atmos Support: Unlike the original model, The Fives II can decode Dolby Atmos signals, using virtual height channels to create a more immersive, multi-dimensional surround sound environment from just two speakers.

- Built-in Wi-Fi Streaming: The new generation adds native Wi-Fi support, enabling high-resolution streaming (up to 24-bit/96kHz) via Apple AirPlay 2, Google Cast, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, and Qobuz Connect. It is also Roon Ready.

- Upgraded Connectivity: The HDMI-ARC port has been upgraded to HDMI 2.1 with eARC, supporting uncompressed high-resolution audio and improving lip-sync accuracy for gaming and TV.

- Redesigned Baffle & Drivers: Features a new one-piece BMC (Bulk Molding Compound) baffle that is denser and more rigid to reduce resonance. The 5.25-inch woofers have been upgraded to Jet Cerametallic material for deeper, cleaner bass.

- Acoustic Design: 1-inch titanium LTS vented tweeter with Tractrix horn and a 5.25-inch high-excursion Jet Cerametallic woofer.

- Power Output: Total system power remains high (likely matching the original's 160W RMS / 320W peak), featuring custom-designed ultra-low noise amplifiers for each driver.

- Physical Controls: The top panel includes redesigned, durable metal wheels for tactile volume and source selection.
