MoFi Electronics has launched a new standmount loudspeaker, the SourcePoint 10, which it says is: “a cost-no-object two-way conceived with the aim of breaking through a crowded speaker market with a unique model that stands out sonically and visually”.

MoFi goes on to explain: “Rather than build a traditional three-way implementation with smaller drivers, we decided to develop a two-way speaker using an original 254mm concentric driver, its diameter selected as the ideal size for minimising cone movement while producing deep bass. Having evaluated a variety of exotic materials, we opted for paper having the quintessential combination of properties for the size of the cone needed. The team worked from a paper pulp mix and devised a cone shape that both optimises resonant behaviour and meets the requirements of the tweeter waveguide.” The tweeter is a 32mm soft dome with a wide-roll surround and large-diameter voice coil, capable of working at the 1.6kHz crossover point.

The SourcePoint 10 is driven by a magnet system that MoFi calls ‘Twin-Drive’ utilising high-flux neodymium magnets for the mid/bass driver and tweeter in a bid to create a fully symmetrical magnetic field, which eliminates flux modulation for extremely low intermodulation distortion (IMD) and accurate reproduction.

On the cabinet there’s a 50mm-thick front baffle designed to reduce diffraction. Made of 25mm-thick MDF panels for the sides, top, bottom and back, the cabinet itself has an internal volume of 50 litres (almost two cubic feet), the sensitivity is quoted at 91dB, low-frequency point of 42Hz, and true 8ohm impedance with a minimum of 6.4ohm. Two additional braces further strengthen the interior while the exterior is wrapped in a real-wood veneer of either satin walnut or black ash.

Dedicated stands are available for an extra £550 per pair.
