Thanks. That seems like a better overall set up and should do nicely.

The walnut are a bit less boring but MoFi continue their swing and a miss design approach for me. A lot of money for bookshelves.
Oh wait they’re not really bookshelves. They’re 60cm tall and almost 40cm wide and deep. They’re standmounts like my Linton or the JBL 100 ones.
If you've ever wanted people to walk into a room and exclaim "I see that you have speakers... in this room." Then these are the speakers for you.
I'm looking for something to store a few headshells with cartridges mounted on them. I see a couple things on Amazon and such, but was wondering if anyone had one they could vouch for? Am I over thinking this?

Came here because I figured these would be up for discussion. Price point doesn’t shock me, but I was not expecting a 10” point source is not what I was expecting.The Mofi speakers have been announced.

The design is pretty interesting. I’m surprised they didn’t include stands as an option with this pre-order because these seem like they’d need a fairly specific stand size/design.
So we’ve now got speakers at $3700, top end TT at $3500. I’d imagine we see amps at some point in the same price range. I’d be curious to hear a full Mofi system.

I’d wager these will sound terrific. They certainly look to be built like tanks (nearly 10 pounds heavier than Lintons!), and the drivers look novel. Andrew Jones does not mess around.
It’s very much a nod to Tannoy with the concentric driver with the tweeter centred in it.

I'd love to hear them back to back with some Tannoys, and I might check and see if the hifi shop in Atlanta will get them in their demo room. But the look of them is very underwhelming and besides being way outside of a price range I could ever convince the wife at. I suspect that they're going for the same market that they cater to with their music picks who are probably less likely to want something that stands out visually.
If you did throw some Fyne Audio in the mix too, if possible. They’re a company in Scotland set up by some ex Tannoy employees. Their speakers follow a similar set of principles and are meant to be brilliant. I have my “lottery winners” eye on their new classic series as much as on the Tannoy Heritage these days!
From the monolith table to the monolith table with shiny guitar finish to these MoFi clearly aren’t hitting any of the right design buttons for me lol.

I'd actually like to see a mock up of these with the sunburst guitar finish, it might actually make them stand out better. But my first guitar had that finish so I've got a soft spot for it.
I found one with only two slots…that’s what I’m gonna get. I don’t need a dozen. I’d go broke lolI have the AT and it works great, either should be fine..............but empty slots beg to be filled
Honestly it’s as much the high gloss as the colour. I increasingly have an aversion to things with a high sheen finish. Also I love a old school sunburst guitar but that’s a different thing altogether for me, it’s not a part of my living room decor!

Same. The matte finish on my turntable was a big draw. If anything, I just hate trying to keep the glossy sheen clean looking. It drives me nuts.
Audiolab have gone all fancy!
