Mofi Sourcepoint 888?

"If he releases a 10-10-10 or a 12-12-10, i'll buy it. I like em big."

A 10/12 would get my attention.

I see these 888's being a killer deal in 3-4 years due to low sales.

Just like the AJ Elac Adante-dealers were blowing them out 1/2 price.

"they did many things impressively except for the upper midrange lower treble dry, brash flavor. "

Just like bookshelves, always system dependent.

Everyone's "Goldilocks" setup will  be different.

"he calls them the working man’s TAD loudspeaker"

Haven't heard them yet, but I'd probably agree having heard other AJ creations-Sourcepoint 10's/Elac Adante.

Years ago I attended an audio club meeting at Pioneer HQ. AJ demoed his TV soundbar. The sound was impressive for a price point, big box product.

Upon entering the facility, you walked past a huge aisle 3 levels high with TAD speakers! 

"The vocals and midrange sound truncated and at times break up even at moderate volumes."

Interesting. I would like to read more user observations. Every speaker is subject to the ol YMMV.

"The best speakers that I haveowned in this price range are the Tekton Moabs"

User reviews all seem positive. The Tekton aesthetic however...

"Seems to me like you are clipping/ doing something terrible to it with your "mac tubes"/ front end electronics ( and blaming it on the speaker instead.)"

Assuming everything was the same, lpweissman heard the Tekton Moab as "better". Something is causing the "break up" not the speaker?

My expectation for the 888's  is they should sound fantastic with  either SS or tubes.
