Distortion performance is top tier. Doesn't care about 96dB at all.

 

[Puddingbuks]

Impressive results. Looks could be better.

Looking forward to seeing the data on spinorama.org so I can do some comparisons. Definitely looks like a speaker to be reckoned with!

Looks like a very good speaker, especially for those that like to move around

I view it more as a larger sweet spot.

Those seem like great speakers, but "MoFi" is a ridiculous name for a company selling upscale $5,000 speakers. Can you imagine hosting a party with your lawyer and doctor friends, someone asks you what those nice speakers are, and you have to explain "They're MoFi, like hi-fi, but there's mo' of it, get it"?

And it's dated. SWR made a bass guitar amplifier called "Mo' Bass" around the turn of the century.

It is nice to see a company moving back to decent-sized woofers instead of trying to squeeze bass out of infinite arrays of 6-inchers.

I’d focus on the name Andrew Jones rather than Mobile Fidelity. It’s no accident that these are excellent speakers.

I can't find a UK price or anyone selling them here yet although some dealers have the smaller models so maybe it's just a question of time.

Seriously interested in these, they look textbook in every respect (not even that tough of a load) and they go lower than my current speakers.

$10 AUD is equal to about 6250 EUR.

6000 EUR is just over 5000 GBP but I bet they will be the thick end of six grand here on 'Treasure Island.'

 

[Grotti]

They should sell directly to customers, that could halve the price

Edit for typo

 

[PatentLawyer]

Would love to hear them and see if that bumpiness in upper mids / lower treble is audible.

 

[Pearljam5000]

For the same price you could get KEF LS60 or JBL 4329P
So it's a tough dilemma ....
