Thoughts: Mofi Sourcepoint 888 vs Fyne Audio 501sp?

I heard the 888 at Axpona and was very very impressed. I was equally impressed with the SVS Ultra Evolution Pinnacle. They are also very worthwhile considering and in the same price category. I also was very pleased that day with the sound of the PS Audio FR5 speakers, although those are just bookshelf.

I bought Crutchfield’s demo pair of SP888’s. They are awesome, they are nicely articulate and play loud with great bass. I sold a pair of Magico A5’s prior to buying. They do not play loud and I would not go back for anything. Onkyo Grand Integra M-510 amplifier and Canary Audio CA-601 MKII pre and a variety of sources all of which sound great! $26k vs $5k easy choice!

Safe bet they are a lot of quality sound for the $$$$. 

I haven't heard the MoFi but I have heard the Fyne and it was not for me. It struck me as more about hi fi than the music and I am very pleased to say I went the Sonus Faber route.

I bought a pair of Fyne F-702s several years ago; they have 8” woofers and were a bit deficient in that department.  Adding a pair of subs made a huge difference, and not just below 50 hz.  I am driving the Fynes with a tube preamp and Odyssey monobloc power amps, via Silversmith Fidelium speaker cables, and the sound is, in the perception of my old ears, superb: great tonal qualities, imaging, instrument and voice reproduction, and soundstage.  I had wished I had purchased either the F-703 or F-704, but the addition of the subs more than satisfied those desires.  I believe I am end state in terms of reproducing the music for what I have spent.  I will, however, need to upgrade my streamer at some point.  The Fynes are keepers for me.  I believe the SP models are made in Scotland.
