Mofi Sourcepoint 888?


Any OWNER feedback on these?

The bookshelves were a flavor of the month a few years ago.

Like everything else, the bookshelves are coming down in price. I see these 888’s as the next bargain in a couple of years?

MoFi Electronics SourcePoint 888 Floorstanding Speakers [Pair]

At $5K...just another nice speaker. When these are blown out at close to 1/2-WIN!

What’s with that color choice for the speaker grill on the walnut finish?

Are they the $10K sleeper?

I heard these at a home with  a Boulder integrated and Weiss dac 

and these speakers were not out of place whatsoever.

in fact the Bass is very conservatively rated we played 28 hz test tone from a concert grand piano and other organ tones feeling Bass even into the mid 20 s 

I maybe giving them a big time Xover upgrade $1200 in top of the line capacitors and resistors would with East put this in the $15k+  Loudspeaker without any 

stretch almost 97 lbs each .the drivers maybe made overseas and cabinet 

but Andrew Jones overseas every step of their production .

he calls them the working man’s TAD loudspeaker and I totally agree .

These will play with a modest 40wpc tube amp but truly love to play loud,higher power better control.

that being said as a point source coaxial mid tweeter he did a great job.

I am a 40 year audiophile and owned a Audio store for a decade these are a steal 

for $5k  these beat most speakers in many areas at over $10 k.

I think a 10 inch version would be great but the Bass is Very solid ,no sub needed 

for 95% of Audiophiles.

Thanks for sharing that video @deep_333. 

I'm really curious about these speakers.

The above comments about judging a speaker by what was heard at a trade show or via a YouTube video with headphones just baffles me. Making an objective statement about a specific trait (mid-range glare) based on a set-up in a hotel room seems like a rush to judgement.

I appreciate @audioman58 real life, in a listeners room approach.

 

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

audioman58-

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! 

 

 

Tons of competition out there and a limited market but 10s sounded like exceptional value when I heard them at 2022 CAF. These days, they are a lot of Stand mount speaker for the price.

Have not heard the newer floorstanders but floorstanders have more appeal to me personally at present than large stand mounts.
