This is Hi-Fi, but not as we know it. British designer and loudspeaker specialist Ferguson Hill has announced the Jetstream loudspeaker system, an extraordinary transparent audio system that’s an edifice of acrylic artistry.
Two decades in the making, it marks a major upgrade to the brand’s original FH001 transparent design.
Explains Ferguson Hill founder and designer Tim Hill : “I have incorporated all the changes I have wanted to do since the launch of the FH001 twenty years ago.”
The Kent-based maker is a former aeronautical engineer, so it only seems right that the end result looks out of this world.

The new Ferguson Hill Jetstream Loudspeaker System comprises a pair of Jetstream horn speakers, a pair of Jetstream bass speakers, and matching bass amplifier.
The horn itself is crafted from 8mm thick acrylic; it comes with several significant design upgrades to the original system, including a new semi-full range drive unit, created in conjunction with Cube Audio of Poland.
Additional enhancements include the bass speaker’s three-part feet, with internal dampening and removable spikes. The bass drive units have also received significant development from the Kent-based manufacturer, including improvements to the neodymium magnets.
The iconic horn speaker is partnered with a separet bass speaker system, comprising two 600mm diameter clear acrylic spheres, with neodymium-powered 300 mm drive units. The partnering Jetstream stereo bass amplifier delivers 200 W per channel.
The amplifier is finished with 10 mm thick CNC machined aluminium billets, with a bead blasted and anodised finish.
Pricing is suitably stratospheric. The entire Jetstream system retails for £105,200 Individually, the horn speakers are priced at £72,955 a pair, and the bass speakers £22,295. The matching amplifier is an additional £9,950. For more visit Ferguson Hill online.
