MoFi Electronics SourcePoint 888 Floorstanding Speakers

Andrew Jones' ultimate expression of the SourcePoint philosophy, combining point-source accuracy, full-range dynamics, and reference-level musical realism in a true flagship floorstanding loudspeaker.

The Flagship of the SourcePoint Family

The SourcePoint 888 represents the most ambitious loudspeaker ever created under the MoFi Electronics SourcePoint platform.

Designed by legendary loudspeaker engineer Andrew Jones, the 888 expands upon the acclaimed SourcePoint architecture by combining a custom concentric driver with dedicated low-frequency drivers in a floorstanding enclosure engineered for full-range performance.

The result is a loudspeaker capable of delivering exceptional imaging, deep bass extension, effortless dynamics, and remarkable musical engagement.

Designed by Andrew Jones

Andrew Jones has spent decades developing some of the world's most respected loudspeaker designs.

His career includes leadership roles and groundbreaking products for:

• KEF
• Infinity
• Pioneer
• TAD
• ELAC
• MoFi Electronics

The SourcePoint 888 reflects everything Jones has learned about driver integration, phase coherence, cabinet construction, and real-world musical reproduction.

Why the SourcePoint 888?

The name "888" reflects the loudspeaker's unique driver architecture.

The design incorporates:

• One custom 8-inch concentric driver
• Two dedicated 8-inch bass drivers
• Three total 8-inch drivers working together

This configuration allows the speaker to preserve the imaging advantages of a point-source design while delivering the bass authority and dynamic capability expected from a true reference floorstander.

8-Inch Concentric Point-Source Driver

At the heart of the SourcePoint 888 is Andrew Jones' custom concentric driver assembly.

The tweeter is mounted directly within the center of the midrange driver, creating a true point-source acoustic origin.

Benefits include:

• Exceptional imaging precision
• Superior phase coherence
• Stable soundstage reproduction
• Improved driver integration
• Consistent off-axis response
• More realistic vocal presentation

The concentric architecture remains the defining characteristic of the entire SourcePoint series.

Dedicated Bass Driver System

Unlike stand-mount SourcePoint models, the 888 incorporates two dedicated 8-inch woofers optimized specifically for low-frequency reproduction.

Advantages include:

• Greater bass extension
• Increased output capability
• Lower distortion
• Improved dynamic headroom
• Enhanced room-filling performance
• Better control at high volumes

By assigning bass duties to dedicated drivers, the concentric driver can focus on midrange and high-frequency performance with greater precision.

1.25-Inch Soft Dome Tweeter

Integrated into the center of the concentric driver is a large-format 1.25-inch soft dome tweeter.

This advanced design delivers:

• Smooth high-frequency extension
• Excellent transient response
• Low distortion
• Wide dispersion
• Natural tonal balance
• Seamless integration

The tweeter works in conjunction with the surrounding cone structure to maintain controlled directivity throughout the listening area.

Advanced Crossover Engineering

The SourcePoint 888 utilizes a sophisticated crossover network carefully tuned by Andrew Jones.

The crossover is responsible for ensuring seamless integration among all three drivers while maintaining phase accuracy and tonal consistency.

Benefits include:

• Precise driver blending
• Exceptional coherence
• Improved imaging
• Consistent frequency response
• Greater transparency
• Enhanced musical realism

The crossover design is a major contributor to the speaker's natural and effortless presentation.

Premium Cabinet Construction

The cabinet is engineered to provide an acoustically inert platform for the drivers.

Features include:

• Extensive internal bracing
• Thick cabinet walls
• Resonance-controlled construction
• Precision driver mounting
• Carefully tuned porting system

Benefits include:

• Reduced cabinet coloration
• Cleaner bass response
• Improved detail retrieval
• Better imaging precision
• Enhanced dynamics
• Greater overall transparency

The enclosure contributes significantly to the loudspeaker's exceptional performance.

Full-Range Performance

One of the most impressive characteristics of the SourcePoint 888 is its ability to reproduce music with authority across the entire frequency spectrum.

Listeners can expect:

• Deep bass extension
• Natural midrange presentation
• Smooth treble response
• Exceptional dynamic range
• Outstanding transient speed
• Effortless musical scale

Whether reproducing intimate acoustic recordings or large-scale orchestral works, the SourcePoint 888 maintains composure and realism.

Compared to the SourcePoint 10 Master Edition

The SourcePoint 10 Master Edition remains one of the finest stand-mount loudspeakers available.

The SourcePoint 888 expands performance through:

• Greater bass extension
• Higher output capability
• Larger soundstage scale
• Improved room-filling performance
• Dedicated bass drivers
• Full-range floorstanding design

The SourcePoint 10 Master Edition excels in smaller rooms, while the 888 is designed for listeners seeking maximum scale and authority.

Amplifier Matching

The SourcePoint 888 performs exceptionally well with high-quality electronics.

While reasonably efficient, the 888 rewards amplifiers capable of delivering excellent current and control.

Ideal Room Size

The SourcePoint 888 performs best in:

• Medium-sized rooms
• Large listening rooms
• Dedicated music spaces
• Open-concept environments

Its combination of bass extension and dynamic capability allows it to energize larger spaces while maintaining excellent imaging.

Placement Recommendations

For optimal performance:

• Allow breathing room behind the speakers
• Maintain symmetrical placement
• Experiment with moderate toe-in
• Keep adequate spacing between speakers
• Position listening seat to form an equilateral triangle

Proper setup allows the concentric driver architecture to create its full imaging potential.

Sound Quality

Listeners consistently describe the SourcePoint 888 as delivering:

• Exceptional imaging precision
• Powerful bass authority
• Natural vocal reproduction
• Effortless dynamics
• Expansive soundstage presentation
• Extraordinary musical engagement

Its ability to combine point-source coherence with full-range performance sets it apart from many traditional floorstanding loudspeakers.

Andrew Jones' Flagship Statement

The SourcePoint 888 represents the culmination of Andrew Jones' work within the SourcePoint family.

Its innovative driver architecture, dedicated bass system, advanced crossover network, and carefully engineered cabinet create a loudspeaker capable of extraordinary performance.

For listeners seeking a floorstanding speaker that combines imaging precision, dynamic capability, and musical realism, the SourcePoint 888 stands among the most compelling loudspeakers available today.
