New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones)

@singintheblues VAT?

$3699 = £3064.   So if it were VAT @ 20%, that’s £3677

Still £823 or $992 to account for.

UK dealers want money for nothing.

@singintheblues that’s sadly the case with a lot of electronics, Ironically, the US is often cheaper, economies of scale.

Little comfort: a box of strawberry they grow 10 miles from me cost $2 more here than 2,500 miles away in the last village in New Hampshire

One big factor with this speaker was keeping the cost down by using AJ's connections that he's had for the last 20 years in China. One is used to the VAT over the pond but a dealer markup of almost $1000 is out of bounds. 

Here's another video from a Canadian dealer and their take on the Sourcepoint 10:

All the best,

Ask yourself why the Point Source 10 is made in China? Profit for MO-FI is the number one factor(NOT QC) probably giving them the highest ROI. If the profit margin was higher in India or Mexico the speaker might be made there. How many of these gauche boxes will retain the claimed SQ of the prototype that is demoed at shows or the selected units passed on to so-called reviewers? Please stop the silly comparisons of i Phones and computers being made in China. These are throw away items that are necessities in current society not luxury items.
