Introduction

Fluance has successfully revolutionized the home audio industry. Fluance develops a broad line of high-fidelity products based on five key aspects: Sound Quality, Solid Construction, Performance, Style, and Value. These distinctive points make Fluance the most reliable and respected name among our fans and ensure your music is heard the way your favorite artist intended.

Today, Fluance expands on this vision and takes its approach to a new level. With our dedicated team, Fluance assures its products meet the most stringent marks of quality control - overseeing each step from design to manufacturing - and has raised the industry bar in customer experience and quality to be second-to-none.

Break-in Period

Our speakers have a Butyl rubber ring surrounding the cone. The break-in period allows the rubber to loosen and stretch, allowing the cone a larger range of movement, which gives a better sound reproduction. We recommend 10-12 hours of play at moderate volume to achieve this.
