New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones)


Here is some info on the new MOFI/Jones speaker:

I would face them off against anything else I heard at the show in a similar size room ie modest size hotel room. Obviously the bigger products are needed for the larger ball and meeting rooms. The Atmasphere class d amps for less than 6k delivered some of the best sound in the show with the big Classic Audios in their ballroom home imho. This business about you gotta have way more expensive gear to get the best is nonsense at least these days. Maybe in the past where a show like this is still firmly rooted.

I’m sure these Andrew Jones designed speaks sound good.

But..., are they this moments Elac Adante?

Not too far back, this AD designed line was flavor of the moment, by reviewers and users. Then not too long after-price dump by retailers 50%.

Years ago, I attended AVS forum meeting at Pioneer HQ in Long Beach Cal, which AD hosted, and he promoted a Best Buy value level line that did sound great. The most impressive thing was hearing the TV soundbar while in Pioneer’s sound room. It was as convincing as a pair of audiophool speakers-admittedly embarrassing!

This was the same place that boxes of mega dollar TAD speakers are warehoused. There were staked rows of them.

A reminder also that a pro sound room make a HUGE impact on even cheap speakers.

If they follow history, I’ll grab a pair for $1500 in 3-5 years.
