Check out ATC SCM-19’s.
Mofi Sourcepoint 8 vs. KEF R3 Meta
I'm considering one of these two critically praised speakers for my 21' x 14' room. I'll pair them with a Rythmik F12 subwoofer to cover the lower frequencies. I don't have access to a local retailer to compare them side-by-side, so I'm posting here to see if anyone has listened to both and can offer their opinion, or observations.

the MoFi has a slightly wider dispersion size whilst the overall lean of sound is neutral for both, the KEF is a hair more neutral. the MoFi is also less tasking on amps with their above 4 ohm electrical impedance load. both incredible, I'd choose the KEF but ironically I have the MoFi 888 and I won't trade it for anything and I chose them because of demoing the Sourcepoint 8 before hand. So I blind bought the 888 @output555 You're not gonna be disappointed with any of these but a demo will have been ideal. Where do you plan on getting them? Do not get any ATC. this obsession with negative midrange having speakers baffle me endlessly |
kofibaffour: Thanks for the insights. It's my understanding the 888s are based on the SP 8s, so I'd imagine they share a lot of the same tone, dynamics and SQ. Pairing the SP 8s with a good subwoofer might be a less expensive way to enjoy near-888 goodness. |
@output555 yes if you manage to use sound physics based, measurement/listening led integration of subwoofer. you'd be getting the 888 sound generally.
Hell I use the 888s with two subwoofers, because physics of low frequency in a rooom |
