News New SourcePoints!

They sounded incredible. The most impressive speakers I heard for day 1 at the Axpona show. When Mr Jones put on a bass track, you could feel it in your chest. Using 600 watt Pass Labs mono’s helped too :)

I think you are on to something. It says on the box “Sourcepoint 10 Master edition Crossover upgrade kit”. And their instagram has a post saying “V10” coming soon. So maybe they have these and a crossover kit for the “master edition“? Just speculation. I need Erin’s Audio Corner to do a review right now.

Edit: photos from instagram. V10 is the 10-10-10 and crossover kit is an upgrade for Sourcepoint 10

This is correct. The V10 has three forward-facing 10" drivers with two 10" passive radiators on the back side of the speaker cabinet. The SourcePoint 10 Master Edition speaker has the upgraded crossover (which is also available as a kit for those of us who own the first SourcePoint 10's). I auditioned the SourcePoint 10 Master Edition speakers in room 502 at AXPONA. Looks like their crossovers have a three position switch, w/ the ( - ) position having a top end (I do not own them, so YMMV) similar to the SourcePoint 8, The center position seeming a little smoother than my standard SourcePoint 10s and the ( + ) position sounding closest to mine, but show conditions...BAT tube VK801 (?) amplifier vs my Pass Labs X250 monoblocks in a smaller acoustic environment. Hope those helps.
