MoFi Electronics SourcePoint 888 Loudspeakers - White - Pair

A Concentric Point-Source Driver, Scaled to a Full-Size Tower

The MoFi Electronics SourcePoint 888 is a 3-way floorstanding speaker designed by Andrew Jones, built around an 8-inch concentric point-source driver — a 1.25-inch soft dome tweeter mounted at the acoustic center of the midrange cone — over two additional 8-inch woofers dedicated to bass.

MoFi rates sensitivity at 87 dB into a nominal 6 ohms, and rates power handling at 200 watts — an easy enough load for most amplifiers, though it rewards one with real gain and current behind it.

The cabinet is available in Satin Walnut, Satin Black Ash, or the 888-exclusive Satin White Ash, all book-matched real wood veneer over a satin-black baffle, and sold as a pair, ready for stereo.

Where the Concentric Driver Earns Its Keep

One Driver, Two Ways: True Point-Source Sound

The 8-inch midrange cone doubles as the tweeter's own waveguide, letting the 1.25-inch dome cross over as low as 1.6 kHz with unusually consistent off-axis behavior. Because both drivers radiate from the same point in space, sound arrives at your ears in time alignment reviewers usually associate with small standmount monitors, not a full-size tower.

Below 130 Hz, two additional 8-inch paper-cone woofers take over, each driven by dual opposing neodymium magnets with a short coil in a long gap, for uniform magnetic force and controlled cone motion through the full excursion.

The Numbers, and What They Ask of Your Amplifier

MoFi quotes a frequency range of 32 Hz to 30 kHz. Sensitivity is 87 dB, nominal impedance is 6 ohms (4.5 ohms minimum), and MoFi rates power handling at 200 watts.

Two pairs of binding posts ship with factory shorting straps in place for bi-wire or bi-amp use. Twin rear ports, tuned to roughly 30 Hz, complete a cabinet Stereophile's John Atkinson found "surprisingly inert" when he rapped its walls with his knuckles.

What Reviewers Are Saying

John Atkinson, Stereophile, wrote that the SourcePoint 888 "sounded superbly involving with every type of music I played," adding that achieving this level of performance "at a price many times lower than that of competing overachievers is astonishing. Highly recommended."

Hi-Fi News awarded it their Outstanding Product distinction, and Tom Martin, The Absolute Sound, wrote that "for many people shopping in this price range, the SourcePoint 888 is probably the speaker to get..."

Who Is This Floorstanding Speaker Best For?

• You want genuine point-source imaging from a full-size tower — the same concentric driver technology that made Andrew Jones' standmounts famous, scaled up with real bass output
• You want a speaker with real, independently verified critical acclaim — a Stereophile Loudspeaker of the Year finalist, a Hi-Fi News Outstanding Product, and a The Absolute Sound recommendation, all on one tower
• Your amplifier has real gain and current, not just watts on paper — 87 dB sensitivity into a 6-ohm load is a friendly but not trivial amplifier match
• You want one pair, finished and priced as a matched set — the SourcePoint 888 is sold by the pair, ready to place and connect
• You want real floorstanding bass without a separate subwoofer — the SourcePoint 888 reaches to 32 Hz on its own. For the deepest home-theater effects, add one of our subwoofers and let the towers do what they do best

How Does It Connect to Your System?

Give the cabinet some breathing room from the wall behind it for its twin rear ports, and remove the magnetic grilles for critical listening, as MoFi itself recommends. Two pairs of binding posts accept a single-wire run with the factory shorting straps in place, or a bi-wire/bi-amp connection with them removed.

At 96.2 pounds each, plan for a firm, level floor and enough clearance to move the cabinet into final position before connecting cables.

Two cables, two speakers, and you are listening.

Pairs Well With

What finishes the system around a pair of SourcePoint 888 towers:

• Integrated amplifiers — a quality integrated amplifier with real current on tap drives it well
• Stereo amplifiers — a separate power amp for even more headroom, using the bi-amp posts
• Speaker cables — single-wire or bi-wire runs, since this model supports both
• Audio racks — house the electronics driving an award-winning tower

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the price for one speaker or a pair?

The SourcePoint 888 is sold by the pair, not each — the listed price is for two speakers, ready for stereo.

What comes in the box?

Each speaker with its magnetic grille, carpet cones and hard-floor feet, and the owner's manual.

What amplifier do I need?

MoFi rates power handling at 200 watts into a 6-ohm load (4.5 ohms minimum). At 87 dB sensitivity, the load is friendly but rewards an amplifier with real gain and current, not just watts on a spec sheet.

Can I bi-wire the SourcePoint 888?

Yes. Two pairs of binding posts ship with factory shorting straps for single-wire use; remove them to bi-wire or bi-amp.

How is this different from MoFi's SourcePoint 8 and 10 standmounts?

The 888 shares its 8-inch concentric driver with the SourcePoint 8 standmount; the SourcePoint 10 standmount uses a larger 10-inch version of the same technology. What truly sets the 888 apart is its floorstanding cabinet — roughly double the standmounts' internal volume — with two dedicated 8-inch woofers added below 130 Hz for real floorstanding bass extension.

What finishes are available?

Satin Walnut, Satin Black Ash, and the 888-exclusive Satin White Ash, all real wood veneer.
