    Quadraspire SV3T Hi-Fi Equipment Rack

    05/04/2026 | 5 mins.
    When putting together a hi fi system, we tend to obsess over the active components. We spend hours agonizing over amplifier topologies or DAC chips, but we often treat the literal foundation of our systems as an afterthought. So settle in while I share some thoughts on a piece of equipment that quietly supports this entire endeavor: The Quadraspire SV3T performance Hi-Fi rack.

    MoFi Electronics SourcePoint V10 Master Edition Floorstanding Speakers

    03/04/2026 | 16 mins.
    Five ten inch drivers per speaker. Alarmingly, that's not a typo, and it's by no means a gimmick either. The MoFi Electronics SourcePoint V10 Master Edition is one of those speakers that just kind of stops you mid-sentence the moment you walk into a room in CES. Or maybe I should say, the moment you hire a crane operator to get them into your basement, they're big, they're impressive. They're beautiful. But how do they sound? Tune in to find out!
