Here is some info on the new MOFI/Jones speaker:

People that don’t know don’t care IMO and IME. 
 

jBL or pick your poison Bluetooth sounds totally fine. Most people don’t need anything more and certainly would not put tens of thousands to hear better. 

People that don’t know don’t care IMO and IME. 

And my story does not support this. If they have not heard anything better, then yes, they would not know. This is the second time. Last time was in 2019, when a friend came over for a listen and was amazed what high end sounds like. We ended up getting a Revel F35/36 at the local dealer and a Hegel integrated (with onboard DAC) and Audio Envy cables. And this was right before the pandemic! I have posted about this story too, here on Audiogon. Yes. it is rare, but it does happen.

When I see that people have a list of components that cost more than I spent on cars, combined in my entire adult life and the same people rave about junk music (to my taste) I feel confused.

 

Yes this has been puzzling me for years too.

Folks with mega expensive systems who seem to prefer listening to emotionless garbage.

Always well recorded emotionless garbage, mind you.

What emotionless garbage are these "folks" listening to exactly? And what does it have to do with a relatively affordable speaker and hopefully good sounding speaker most of us haven't heard?

Wow, some snowflakes in here.

it has taken me 35 years to get where I’m at' stereo wise, 

such a,massive difference from YouTube with computer speakers, to a nice pair of Snell powered by a B&K amp, fed by a sony ES, or an Acurus acd-11 with even simple rca’s. The difference is mind blowing, and when you get a nice pair of speakers, and you walk into your den, while the computer speakers are playing YouTube, then walk back into,your family,room, and feel the music surround you, then you will know why we audition, tweak, poke, prod, cables, components, etc.

it’s a hobby, like anything, I have hair down past middle of my back. Always look rather,scruffy, as construction jobs don’t require high n tight cuts etc. 

im not a junky, don’t gamble, not too violent, don’t drink,excessively, maybe a weekend warrior at times, put down 30 pack in a day n a half at times, never have I hit a woman or raised a hand to any woman.

point is we like music, love to shop, audition audio, I’ll call the wife at lunch time, on thursdays or fridays, tell her please take the covers off of Flotsam & Jetsam (names of my amps) switch em on, she turns on the disc player and preamp, to be nice and warm when I get home on Friday, to sit back and relax to Kreator, Or stratovarius, Hirax, or maybe humble pie, or max Webster, Lillian axe, whatever.

final point: most of us are good people, men need a vice, ours is audio, music, few drams, friends, wine, whatever. That is the highlight of my day, home from work, clean up, slippers, swishy pants, pop in disc, or iPod , , press play and relax to some Motörhead, UFO, forbidden, dark Angel.

puts me in down mode, and I feel better, don’t get onry, I’m relaxed.

you all get it.

let the chickens run around pecking all they can, us eagles will soar high and look down upon the weak
