Thoughts: Mofi Sourcepoint 888 vs Fyne Audio 501sp?


Thinking about either of these. I’m surprised there isn’t more direct comparisons as they’re both dual concentric and near the same price. Anyone try both or thoughts on these? Thanks

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.

If I had the room size and budget I’d go for the Mofi.  See Erin’s review in an earlier post.  He bought a pair and he’s heard more than most of us.  Agree with the need to listen in your room and return for little or no cost.  Your room has a huge impact on how the speakers will sound followed by the equipment in your system.  Enjoy your speaker journey.   

plenty of good speakers out there, but MOFI is a got busted and sued and lost: they conned conned their most loyal buyers on some digitally sourced records they asserted were 100% analog.

to whitewash the scandal they came up with another sourcepoint speakers, made in china and sold at made in usa prices. 

MOFI suckes.  
not worth givin em a dime.

if u get em get em used.
