The latest speaker from legendary designer, Andrew Jones.
Andrew Jones, the Chief Loudspeaker Designer for Mobile
Fidelity Electronics has designed another masterpiece with the MoFi SourcePoint
10 Concentric Loudspeaker. Andrew is well-known for his past concentric
designs, but this one is quite different utilizing a 10” paper-pulp cone driver
with a 1.25” soft dome tweeter. This speaker has been a culmination of 18
months of R&D with the drivers being developed from scratch. This is
definitely not a speaker with off-the-shelf components and the results speak
for themselves!
FEATURES
• 10-inch concentric driver
• 1.25-inch wide roll soft dome tweeter

DRIVEN TO ACHIEVE INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE
The heart of the SourcePoint 10 is the innovative
Twin-Drive high-flux neodymium magnet system.
It is not enough to simply optimize the frequency
response of the woofer and tweeter. It is also critically important to minimize
distortion in the motor structure of the drive unit. If the motor has
distortion, it will generate new frequencies outside of the original signal. We
have been very deliberate with the design of the motor to reduce these
distortions.
The Twin-Drive system creates a fully symmetrical
magnetic field, eliminating flux modulation for extremely low intermodulation
distortion (IMD). This technical achievement is an important part of why the
SourcePoint 10 sounds so pure and accurate.
THE 10-INCH CONCENTRIC DRIVER. TWO DRIVERS. ONE VOICE.
The 10-inch paper-pulp cone has nearly 2.5x the surface
area of a typical 6.5-inch bass driver, and barely needs to move in order to
produce large and dynamic sound. This keeps a consistent waveguide around the
tweeter for the most coherent sound possible, with the least amount of
distortion, and without sacrificing bass.
Fitted centrally within the bass driver is a 1.25-inch
soft dome tweeter with a wide-roll surround and large diameter voice coil. The
tweeter has great power handling and minimal thermal compression, allowing it
to come in at 1.6kHz and deliver smooth response beyond 30kHz.
The two drivers work together as one to create sound that
is pure and powerful.
HIGH-QUALITY CABINET CONSTRUCTION. BRACED FOR CLARITY.
A large woofer requires a large cabinet that won’t add
resonance. The SourcePoint 10 uses thick MDF panels and extensive internal
bracing.
The top, bottom, and sides are 1-inch thick MDF wrapped
in beautiful real wood veneer. The faceted front baffle is 2-inch thick MDF
finished in a smooth satin black coating.
Two internal braces connect the top, sides, and bottom to
further strengthen the cabinet.
EASY TO DRIVE WITH THE
ELECTRONICS YOU LOVE.
With 91dB sensitivity, the
SourcePoint 10 can be driven with as little as 30 watts of power.
The nominal impedance of 8
ohms and a minimum impedance of 6.2-ohms means they are amplifier friendly.
Whether you prefer tubes
or transistors, your amp will pair well with these speakers.
MULTI-FACETED 2-INCH THICK BAFFLE
The front baffle is the launch point for your speaker
driver. It needs to be strong and free of sound reflection.
The SoucePoint 10 uses a sculpted baffle with multiple
facets to eliminate diffraction. All you hear is the smooth and even response
of the driver, not the sound of the cabinet.
EASY TO USE MAGNETIC GRILLS
It’s quick and easy to make your SourcePoint speakers
more discrete for casual listening. The fabric-wrapped grills attach
magnetically and are perfectly form-fitting to retain the profile of the
distinguished multi-faceted baffle.
For the highest performance, we recommend removing the
grills while listening.
FURNITURE GRADE REAL WOOD VENEERS
You can choose the warmth and richness of Satin Walnut or
the stealthy professional look of Satin Black Ash. The SourcePoint 10 uses
furniture-grade real wood veneer that is book matched for mirror-imaged grain
patterns on both of your speakers.
The SourcePoint 10 has a unique combination of modern
and classic style which suits a wide variety of interiors.
