New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones)
Here is some info on the new MOFI/Jones speaker:
@jcoehler , That got my attention as well as 28" is quite high for a speaker of that size to rest at. My ears reside around 37". A halfway point of 11.25" from the base is where the center of the tweeter is so, theoretically I'd need a stand around the 25-26" height. If the off axis reach of the tweeter is good, I would think 22-24" would suffice and maybe even 20", if you slouch a bit. All the best, |
I read the Stereophile Source Point 10 review (couldn't help myself, grabbed a subscription). Yup, they measured quite well. Both the measurements and JA's impressions seemed to align with what I felt I heard - Full, weighty bass, generally smooth response, with a bit of a rising high end just enough to give a bit of a peak or sparkle, but not in to the B&W or Klipsch territory. Imaging was precise, off axis very even up to 10K, and they could play very loud and clean too.

Just got off the phone with Music Direct and they had the pleasure of Andrew Jones demonstrating the Source Point 10 for their employees and that he was one of the most wonderful people they ever met. The rep I spoke with was in the same boat as I: he has Wharfedale Litton speakers stands (loves them as much as I do) and thought they could work but AJ said that despite the excellent off axis response, they'd still be too low at 17" in height. Turns out that 20" is what Mofi is going with and AJ said that is fine for the speakers. All the best, |
Thanks for the update @nonoise Looking forward to more insight from actual owners on their experience. |
@jcoehler , I wish I was one of them telling you about it right now.😄 |
