With its innovative design, the SourcePoint 888 integrates two new 8-inch bass drivers to complement the existing midrange driver, resulting in deeper bass reproduction and enhanced midrange clarity. Carefully selected crossover technology ensures a seamless transition between frequencies, promising an immersive and engaging listening experience.
Andrew Jones, the mastermind behind this project, emphasizes the importance of the technology employed in the SourcePoint 888: “My goal with the SourcePoint 888 is to enhance the technology and sound quality of the SourcePoint 8, elevating it to an even higher level of performance.”
In addition to exceptional sound quality, the SourcePoint 888 also impresses with its design and construction. With sturdy cabinets made of high-quality MDF and real wood veneer finish, this speaker combines elegance and functionality in a harmonious manner.
The SourcePoint 888 will be available for shipping in the second quarter of 2024, priced at US$4999.
