Short answer: the Wharfedale Super Linton. Both are rated 4.4/5 for sound quality (#25 and #27 of 222 bookshelf speakers), and the Wharfedale Super Linton costs $2,699 against $3,795 for the MoFi SourcePoint 10, and with sound quality even, the cheaper one is the better buy.
The Wharfedale Super Linton is the more accurate pick. A retro styled three way bookshelf speaker with punchy dynamics, a matched pair, and custom stands included in the box. Its measured preference score, a predictor of how neutral it sounds, is 6.09 against 4.16 for the MoFi SourcePoint 10. Watch for: Rolls off earlier than the original Linton (F3 77Hz versus the original’s 52Hz), a deliberate trade-off for the closer-wall-placement flexibility.
The MoFi SourcePoint 10 is the deeper-bass choice. A large bookshelf speaker with a 10 inch concentric driver that acts like a point source, with a huge soundstage and strong, clean dynamics. Its bass reaches about 56Hz before falling 3dB, against 77Hz for the Wharfedale Super Linton. The catch: Like virtually all coincident designs, sounds notably bright pointed directly on-axis due to a deliberate treble lift (meant to compensate for the 28mm tweeter’s earlier beaming versus a typical 25mm/1” tweeter) combined with a diffraction dip/peak from the waveguide edge; needs about 15° of toe-out to sound neutral, and even then benefits from an extra 1-2dB of treble EQ.
Buy the Wharfedale Super Linton. Both are rated the same for sound quality, and it costs $1,096 less than the MoFi SourcePoint 10.
