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

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.

You wanted 100% pure analog? ... They should have got a 50 year old master tape (museum piece) from the vault and beat it to death, thereby, killing that long gone artist’s legacy.... so you could have your pristine 100% analog on spinning plastic. You are so special & extremely deserving, but, Mofi just didn’t understand how extremely special/entitled/deserving you are and what your demands were.

 

Funny thing...it was the best sounding vinyl you ever heard...but, as soon as you found out that digital got involved, it stopped sounding good instantaneously

"you’d think a 5k speaker basically knocks it out of the park!"

That's a matter of personal preference and how wide can your wallet stretch.

The Fyne and Mofi are both MIC/price point boxes. BOTH will sound great,each with strengths/weaknesses.

Research/forums can help with a wise choice but won't replace actual  listening. 

Sorry if it was mentioned, but what are the destination room dimensions? And what type of amplification? These are both high sensitivity speakers, is that a requirement?

It’s a weird room with a part slanted ceiling, lots of stuff in it, but fairly big like 16’x 24’ .

I currently have:

Musical Fidelity M6si/Willsenton R8

Eversolo A8

Polk R700/Revel M22 bookshelf
