The Sourcepoint models are incredible but you can't beat the laws of small room acoustics. Yes, you can find a nearly-perfect spot for full range stereo speakers in a room for even bass response but it'll be just that. One spot. Even then, it may still not be entirely flat. In small room acoustics, a properly integrated multi-sub approach will always give the best experience. Again, the Sourcepoints are incredible. Anyone would be blessed to have a pair.

I wish people could hear the bass we got in that room. It's the only thing you phone does not pick up well in the recordings.

@firelord675 Месяц назад

When I normally listen to audiophile reviews like this on my headphone, every once in a while I hear a video that is miles ahead of others. This is one of them. I wonder what kind of microphones you used to record this. The bass was awesome, the voices realistic, sound that I’m sure would have gave me a good sound stage in a room with a stereo system.

@AudiophileJunkie Месяц назад

Just a Galaxy S24 phone for recording. When you're in a good room with great speakers, it's even easy to hear via RU-vid and a camera phone.

@JulioCSolar Месяц назад

@@AudiophileJunkie That is so true! One of my friends sends me clips of his sound system all the time he changes anything and sound so good. He treated his garage and his system is nowhere near as expensive as mine however, his sounds better than mine. One day i will treat my listening room too. I just have to!

@dougg1075 Месяц назад

@SAGNI0971 Месяц назад

Fascinating and revealing video, thanks for sharing. In a previous shared video, Andrew discussed the influence of the Quad on his sound design aesthetics and his Mofi speakers, at least from what I’ve heard at shows, couldn’t be further afield, sound wise, from those legendary Quad’s. Even replicated through the crude RU-vid transfer the Quads sound so much more musical and natural, not like speakers at all. When I listen to the Mofi speakers I hear sound but not musicality. Sure, the price point and manufacturing are vastly different but I don’t hear the influence of the Quad in any of his speakers.

Audiophile Junkie, Can you give your impressions on how similarities between these 888 and the Dali's? Thanks, Ron

@AudiophileJunkie Месяц назад

Hard to say exactly because different environments and I wasn't choosing the songs or volume. However, both struck me as speakers almost anyone would be happy with even with budgets far higher. Both sound much better than more expensive speakers. The Dali drivers are a bit sexier looking, but the front baffle of the Sourcepoint 888 is nicely angled to prevent diffraction and super thick... Plus it has 3 chambers inside that cabinet which is unusual for this price point. You can't go wrong with either, IMO.

I don't know the brand but they are actually referred to as "cloud" treatments by many vendors.

Hi, Please help. I am between either Mofi Source Point 888 and Revival Atalante 5 spears to be used in my space which is about 20 sq metres. This room opens up into another room that is about 15.69 sq metres. Will use either of these two models for Prog rock, jazz and some reggae music. Which in your opinion is the better of these two models. Thanks in advance.

@AudiophileJunkie 6 дней назад

Not familiar with the Revival...you can't go wrong though with the Sourcepoints at the price. They should be fine in your room as you can see in Andrew's room.

(IMO) the title of this video, ""What More Do You Want?" applies/ or should be strongly considered by many audiophiles who are constantly trying to improve their systems (particularly those with rooms that are less than ideal - and spending more will not necessarily provide a worthwhile/ positive improvement, I've been there/ done that).

@alexhanna3921 23 дня назад

I’ll never understand how watching a RU-vid video, or any recording for that matter , of another system can judge the fidelity level since the playback is only as good as the system you own. Unbelievable. Not to mention the ridiculous music that is used for demo purposes. Put on an 80’s CD of Heavy Metal if you want a real world experience of what a speaker is capable of.

@AudiophileJunkie 23 дня назад

It's true that RU-vid is no substitute for a live audition. However, I use the same recording method with each video, so if you're comparing sound in each of my videos, you can hear certain things that stand out even through RU-vid. I was there and heard it live, so I should know what can and can't be discerned from the recording. That being said... If you're using cheap earbuds or speakers to play RU-vid (which most do), then I agree it's not very helpful. I'm using Stax x9000 intoa Blue Hawaii headamp for reference listening... When I switch to playing RU-vid in my car or earbuds at the gym, it's drastically different.

@alexhanna3921 23 дня назад

@@AudiophileJunkie nevertheless, it doesn’t matter. What your recording with isn’t comparable to the source material that your demo was recorded with and regardless of playback and DAC the broadcast speed it barely FM, though not even as compressed. I’m not picking on you, I just cringe when I read comments about how good or bad a system sounds based on a RU-vid review. I felt compelled to voice my observation of the overall absurdity……nothing personal. Oh, I am qualified BTW…. Adieu

@C-man553 6 дней назад

Recording speakers always fails miserably. We hear a big chunk of Andrew’s room. Echo chamber. I would have used a binaural Mike. RND Ron has made the best recordings using this method. Not picking on you either AJ.

@AudiophileJunkie 5 дней назад

Binaural mics are NOT good unless in the hands of experts like David Chesky. If you knew how much the ear pinna impacts frequency response, then you'd know that the pinna on the dummy head is significantly influencing what is being recorded versus the actual gear. In the right hands and with the right corrections, you can "fix" the issues with double ear pinna anomaly from binaural recordings, but Andrew's room is NOT an echo chamber by far, so I'm not sure what you are hearing. You can listen to countless RU-vid videos where the person talking in the room sounds like an echo chamber much more than here. He's got 100% of the sidewalls and most of the ceilings treated, plus rugs, couches and bookshelves.
