Mofi Sourcepoint V10 Master Edition speakers I should have read the small print or perhaps given the name a second glance. If I had then the size of these full-figuredspeakers might not have come as such a surprise. The name V10 is indicative of the 10-inch size of the drivers on Mofi’s biggest Sourcepoint speaker, […]
Fyne Audio F55E speakers “Standby to receive some small floorstanding loudspeakers to try”, said the Editor. “Floor-standing?”, I enquired, “But you know my new room can’t cope with floorstanders!” It was thus with some trepidation that I welcomed the delivery drivers carrying two cartons up my path and unpacked a pair of Fyne Audio’s latest […]
Scansonic HD M30.2 speakers If you lust after an impossibly elegant pillar of Scandi sonic nirvana, no expense spared, Danish speaker maker Raidho Acoustics can help in two ways. First, in exchange for a suitably large amount of filthy moolah, it can make your dreams come true with svelte, driver-stacked towers that cast ever longer […]

Coppice Audio BG3 speakers I love writing about speakers made by boutique brands. These creations tend to be born of passion and a desire to create something truly individual. Coppice Audio is one such that has been making a name for itself among a select, but discerning band of music lovers in post-pandemic Britain. Their […]
Peak Consult Sinfonia speakers Peak Consult is probably not a brand you come across often in your local hi-fi shop, unless your shop is a Peak Consult dealer of course The Danish manufacturer of high-end audio speakers has a long and at the same time short history that can be traced back to the three […]
PMC prophecy9 speakers The PMC prophecy9 is an impressive feat of design and engineering. Quite apart from its acoustic qualities the way that the vent for the transmission line has been incorporated in the prophecy speaker range has reduced the cost of construction in numerous ways. The top dog prophecy9 replaces the twenty5.26i model in […]
Mofi Electronics Sourcepoint 888 speakers The danger for ‘hired gun’ design talent is runaway expectation: a strong reputation dictates a positive outcome. Multiple positive outcomes confer so much emphasis on the designer’s apparent infallibility, even the smallest misstep is seen as a fail. The thing about Andrew Jones hasn’t been just his ability to surf […]
Chario Aviator Amelia speakers Readers will often see the term ‘musical’ used to describe a product—surely, every hi-fi component should produce music? This beautiful speaker from the Italian brand Chario could perhaps be the ideal foil with which to demonstrate this term. It is not a speaker that grabs your attention and impresses at the […]
Monitor Audio Gold 500 6G speakers I had not long read Trevor Butler’s review of the Monitor Audio Studio 89 speaker in this publication when I was asked if I would take a look at the top-of-the-range model from the newly launched range. This request was timely, as it caught me pondering that I had […]
